Israel Blocks Aid Ahead of Winter: Just Another Blockade Tuesday
Mainstream media will frame this as an “escalation” or “new challenge.” The inconvenient truth, conveniently memory-holed, is that Israel has maintained a suffocating blockade on Gaza for 16 years, controlling nearly all entry and exit. This isn't a sudden humanitarian crisis; it's the calculated consequence of a long-standing policy, now weaponized further by classifying aid as a 'security risk'
during continuous bombardment. (One might wonder which security risk starving children pose.) While Western leaders express “concern” at these developments, they simultaneously approve billions in military aid. President Biden, for instance, has continued to expedite arms transfers to Israel, bypassing congressional review. How many 'last warnings' will Gaza receive before the international
community acknowledges that deliberate starvation tactics are, to put it mildly, deeply unethical?
