This is not a natural disaster. It is the brutal combination of manufactured violence and collective global apathy. The famine in Gaza is not collateral damage, but rather the intentional consequence of policies designed by the Israeli government to maximise suffering and death.
The weaponisation of food and aid more broadly has long been a pillar of Israels military strategy in Gaza and throughout occupied Palestine. "

Theres the conventional wisdom says that the private sector is inherently more efficient when it comes to certain logistics, but this is a very specialised aid mechanism, delivery of food to starving people in a conflict zone, that should be left to the people and organisations that do this for a living, the neutral and impartial organisations like the United Nations.

The so-called aid distribution centres, which are located in exposed and dangerous red zones under the control of the occupation army, have turned into mass bloodbaths, luring starving civilians to them as a result of the crippling famine and the tightening siege.
They are then deliberately and coldly shot, in a scene that epitomises the malice of the project and exposes its true objectives.

The phrase shooting fish in a barrel comes to mind as if the Gaza Strip werent enough of a barrel already.
To be sure, the idea of luring starving people to specific geographical points to facilitate Israels genocidal conquest is singularly diabolical.
And as the US persists in enabling Israels fish-in-a-barrel approach, any remotely moral world would refuse to stomach the arrangement any longer.
