Osama Hamdan, Hamas’s representative in Lebanon, told Al Jazeera that Israel has “prevented the entry of food supplies to the north for 10 days”, describing what is happening in Jabalia as “a crime against humanity”.

Intentionally starving civilians by “depriving them of objects indispensable to their survival, including willfully impeding relief supplies” is a war crime, according to the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court.

Meanwhile, six Palestinians, most of them children, were injured when the Israeli military bombed a home in the Tuffah neighbourhood of Gaza City, Wafa said.

    I know Netanyahu thinks this is a great plan. This plan is going to create a generation of such unreasonable people that future generations of Israelis are going to pay a price for. This is a terrible choice.

      Small correction: Attacking Israel is only unreasonable if Israel actually wants peace. They don’t, and the people who do are decreasing (either leaving Israel, getting brainwashed by state propaganda or dying off) day by day. With modern Israeli politics the way they are, being “unreasonable” is probably the most productive thing Palestinian resistance can do.

        Yes. There is little benefit in being reasonable towards a power who wishes unreasonable harm on you.

      By the time Israel and the US is done there will be no one left to speak out. It is just a matter of time before using the “G” word is criminal here in the US.
