The Gaza Famine is the world’s famine. A preventable, predictable famine. 

Enough. Ceasefire. Open all crossings, north and south. Let us get food in, unimpeded and at massive scale.

An Israeli minister boasts that “Gaza is being erased, we are wiping out the population.”

It has taken an enforced famine on two million people, including one million children, for the British media and voices across the political spectrum to finally raise serious protest against Israel’s crimes. Palestine is not a question of left or right. It is a question of right or wrong.

Great letter & can be applied to coverage of Gaza. When you can scroll the entire front page of the Irish Times app [as I did this morning] & not see a single story on Gaza, that is a clear failure to inform the public of the scale & unprecedented nature of what is happening.

America has the most corrupt political system in the Western world.
