Genocide denial

I mean, yes, I deny that fighting a defensive war while taking reasonable precautions against civilian loss of life is a “genocide”, that’s correct.

Israel is not “systematically starving” Gazans; Gazans receive more food aid from Israel than any population in the world receives from anyone.

They receive far less food aid than what was coming in before this phase of the genocide, and back then Israel counted the calories crossing the border. They were only receiving enough to survive before, and now they’re getting less. That means, by definition, the amount coming in is not enough to prevent starvation.

That’s why the UN and WHO and HRW and every other credible humanitarian agency has highlighted the famine and placed the blame squarely on Israel for starvation as a weapon.

Also, the small amount of aid crossing the border can’t be transported anywhere because all the roads are rubble. There’s people hiding in the tunnel that have never seen an aid truck.

Also there’s no way to even cook anything because they have no power and no fuel and barely anything to even safely burn. No refrigeration. No clean water to wash or cook with. Rotting body parts and open sewage and soot and silicate dust everywhere. It’s a death camp.

You foul fucking monster. Stop spreading lies.

They receive 3500 calories per day per person. How much more do they need? They’re already the fattest assholes in the whole Levant.

That’s why the UN and WHO and HRW and every other credible humanitarian agency has highlighted the famine and placed the blame squarely on Israel for starvation as a weapon.

But the UN analysis deliberately ignores most of the food aid. It even says it does.

Starvation in Gaza has been totally refuted.

Also, the small amount of aid crossing the border can’t be transported anywhere because all the roads are rubble.

It can be moved and distributed by hand, if Hamas were willing to do so.
