STARVE THOSE CHILDREN 36 months or older!!!

all Palestinians in Gaza over the age of 4 are “involved” and deserve to face Israel’s collective punishment policy of withholding food and humanitarian aid - Fmr Mossad official Rami Igra #genocide

Why did the International Court of Justice accept all of South Africa's arguments but not order Israel to end its genocidal military assault on Gaza?

Because it dared not take on the real culprit: the US. Biden would have been forced to wield his veto at the Security Council to

Israelis never tire of accusigng Hamas of killing 29 Israeli children on October 7. But Israel has killed more than 10,000 Palestinian children in Gaza since then, and worse killing through deliberate starvation & disease is still to come. So who are the real child killers?

My latest describes the South African petition's catalogue genocidal consequences of Israel's attack on the Gaza'sof population, including massive deaths from starvation, and of the explicitly genocidal statements of from Netanyahu & Israeli ministers.

To truly understand what the Israelis are doing in Gaza, watch and listen to these angelic Israeli kids singing well-rehearsed, explicitly genocidal lyrics: 'In another year we will annihilate the swastika bearers' (at 7:35). youtube.com/watch?v=RmVts4…

My new piece shows that the now-discredited stories of Hamas atrocities on Oct. 7 came from the IDF, with the intent to ensure that the Biden administration would go along with the genocidal Israeli attack on Gaza that followed. consortiumnews.com/2024/01/06/how…

In John Pilger's last piece for Consortium News just last month, he lamented the grip that powerful elites and their militaristic policies maintain across the globe, and zeroed in on Israel's genocidal war on Gaza in particular.

The world has lost a fearless champion of truth that the powerful wished to hide in John Pilger, who died at 84. John was a towering figure in independent journalism who supported institutions to carry on his legacy, including Consortium News, and I am proud to have known him.

Washington Post finally catching up to reporting on Israeli lies by Gareth Porter in Consortium News

Why the lies?

Because Israel wants an excuse to bomb hospitals. This is further evidence of genocidal intent and another reason to #InvokeGenocideConvention

Human Rights Watch accuses Israel of starvation and denial of drinking water to the population of Gaza as a weapon of war -- another of the #WarCrimesbyIsrael which has been clear for weeks. Biden must be held accountable along with his Israeli clients.

The IDF operation of arresting, stripping off the clothes and taking video of dozens of bound men they pretend to accuse of being Hamas operatives is a revealing and disgusting show of childish Israeli breast-beating. I will not post the photograph or video of it.

Current and former Israeli intel officers reveal IDF is deliberately bombing civilian targets it defines as “power targets” (“matarot otzem”), to 'create a shock' on civil society. This is a new and supremely evil form of high tech genocide.

Perhaps the most astonishing thing about Gareth Porter’s article is that it’s based on an article not in Electronic Intifada, not in Israeli opposition paper Ha’aretz that the government is now trying to silence, but on an article in the very establishment Jerusalem Post.

My exclusive report shows how the Israelis military have manipulated and deceived U.S. public opinion to believe Shifa Hospital was the Hamas high command's bunker so it could take over and destroy it, as they are doing to all Gaza hospitals.

Here's the true history of that Israeli tale of Hamas putting its command center under the most important hospital in Gaza. Turns out they've been flogging it since 2009! Media should put an end to that obvious deception. consortiumnews.com/2023/11/15/isr…

Rashid Khalidi, the most eminent Palestinian historian in the United States gives a most sobering and moving assessment of the gravity of this moment in the long Palestinian travail at the hands of the Israelis.
