ICJ orders Israel to allow food into Gaza
Israel must co-operate with the United Nations to ensure food, water, electricity, fuel, shelter, clothing, hygiene, sanitation, and medical requirements.
You cannot expect the country to fight its enemy and feed it at the same time.” - Rachel Touitou, spokesperson for Order 9
It’s the Israeli far-right’s goal to starve Gaza. There are brave people protesting the insanity but the majority are complicit in wanting it to happen.
Consequently, it fell to South Africa to again approach the International Court of Justice (ICJ).
Yesterday, in response to South Africa’s submission that the situation had changed and thus required further provisional measures, the ICJ unanimously ordered Israel to:
Take all necessary and effective measures to ensure, without delay, in full co-operation with the United Nations, the unhindered provision at scale by all concerned of urgently needed basic services and humanitarian assistance, including food, water, electricity, fuel, shelter, clothing, hygiene and sanitation requirements, as well as medical supplies and medical care to Palestinians throughout Gaza, including by increasing the capacity and number of land crossing points and maintaining them open for as long as necessary.
Notably, this includes that Israel must act “in full co-operation with the United Nations”. It’s unlikely that will be complied with considering the USA and Israel’s joint effort to starve Palestinians by crippling UNRWA (United Nations Relief and Works Agency).
Like the bombs they drop on children, the moral high ground of the USA and Israel continues to fall.

Again,the thought of pruning the genome tree of mankind come to my mind. Soon this will come back to the US in many ways. Feeding the people you wish to eliminate only prolongs their misery.
It does come across better in the press.
Sadly the acts af man will end ,most likely like this : a futile drama of no particular importance. Insignificant ,and un missed by the universe.
Perhaps we will find that a Mad Max evriomemt is where we will regain our root and those surviving will find a natural path.
Or maybe the Israelis will learn from the Union Army, and start giving out horse blankets loaded with Small Pox.
That's true, Mike. We created evil gods to live under. It is far easier to steel food than to buy it. Can we look down on baboons when we are so close to them.
As a buzzard has a useful purpose in the food chain, can humans be any more than cannon fodder?
As a somewhat kind old cowboy and Army guy I've no no need to fight except for self protection. And no need to take game if the grocery stores are open.
When this land is taken back by Mexico, that may change.
It will be a good week for buzzards all the same
