Palestinians face hunger, cold and death amid ongoing genocidal Israeli siege on Gaza

Despite the ceasefire, Israel’s strikes and severe restrictions on aid leave Gaza’s civilians struggling to survive.

The Genocide is also ongoing. As in Lebanon the US and Western elite give free rein to their nazi-style colony. It’s quite ok for the Israel side to trash even the biased Ceasefire terms, blocking aid, food, water, fuel, medicines and shelter to over 2 million people trapped in the ever tinier Gaza prison camp.

UN and World Court orders are ignored – The UNRWA aid system, Red Cross and Journalists are still barred – while Israel still holds over 3000 Palestinian hostages without trial and orders collective punishments for failure to find bodies of Israelis they themselves buried under rubble by carpet bombing.

Israel is the worst.

  • All modern States tend to center power in a criminal elite bent on using state monopoly of violence to exploit their peoples.
  • Much worse are States where rulers employ nationalist and racist hysteria campaigns to control, loot and keep their power.
  • But the worst of all States, like Israel, use exclusive race, exclusive religion and a brainwashing ideology of supremacy like Zionism, to legitimize worse than fascist crimes of all types, even Genocide, against the rest of us.

STOP THEM NOW!

The extermination plan is ongoing. Over half of Gaza is now occupied by Israel, which murders any Palestinian approaching the invisible borderline to reach their ex homes. Israel continues to blow up any remaining buildings, in preparation for Israeli bases and eager settlers.

Since a US-brokered “ceasefire” between Hamas and Israel took effect last month, Israel has continued its deadly attacks across Gaza, killing at least 236 Palestinians and wounding more than 600 others, according to Gaza’s Ministry of Health.

Gaza’s Health Ministry reported that since the truce began, the bodies of 500 more Palestinians, murdered in cold blood by the Israelis, have been retrieved from under the rubble of destroyed homes and buildings – victims of Israel’s two-year genocidal war and ongoing bombardment, (now on a strategic pause,) that has left much of the ‘enclave’* (read ‘giant permanent internment prison’*) in ruins.

Separately on Sunday evening, the Israeli Prime Minister’s Office said on X that three bodies of deceased Israeli captives have been received in Israel via the Red Cross.

Trump backs renewed Israeli strikes in Gaza

US President Donald Trump defended Israel’s renewed strikes in Gaza nearly three weeks into a ceasefire he helped broker.

The US president brings a surreal racist view to common logic by simply denying that new massacres and continued Aid blocking, etc, by Israel “jeopardize” the “Ceasefire” while any suspicion of Palestinian breaches merits massive bombing raids.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered “immediate and powerful strikes” on Tuesday evening, citing Hamas attacks on Israeli soldiers still holding more than half of the Palestinian “enclave”. At least 30 Palestinians were killed in the action, according to Gaza’s government.

“As I understand it, they took out an Israeli soldier,” Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One on Wednesday en route from Japan to South Korea. “They killed an Israeli soldier. So the Israelis hit back – and they should hit back. When that happens, they should hit back,” he added.

Trump argued that “nothing is going to jeopardize” the ceasefire. He insisted that Hamas was “a very small part of peace in the Middle East, and they have to behave,” otherwise “their lives will be terminated.”

And also US Vice President J.D. Vance earlier said the ceasefire was holding despite “little skirmishes here and there.” (236 dead Palestinians mostly women and kids) Axios cited unnamed senior US officials as saying the White House had urged Israel not to take “radical measures” that could collapse the truce.

According to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), last week two of its soldiers were attacked and killed by Hamas in Rafah, southern Gaza, and masscred over 1oo in response. Later they had to admit it was an accident when a contractor ran over a forgotten Israeli mine.

The Palestinian armed group warned that the escalation “will lead to a delay” in recovering and returning the last bodies of the remaining Israeli hostages in Gaza.

The hunger crisis in Gaza remains “catastrophic” two weeks after the ceasefire took effect, the UN’s health agency has warned, as international aid groups demanded Israel stop blocking humanitarian deliveries.

Supplies entering the besieged enclave are not meeting the nutritional needs of the people living there, aid groups announced Thursday, while the UN’s World Food Programme said that supplies into Gaza were still far short of its daily target of 2,000 tonnes because only two crossings into the Palestinian territory are open.

(But after over 3 weeks of “ceasefire” it is clear that Israeli policy is to restrict aid to less then the minimum for survival, under a chaotic punishment regime, due to the banning of UNWRA distribution.)

And even worse, Israel and the US now have the open support of dozens of states for Trump’s WONDERFUL Gaza Peace Plan, and the worldwide mobilizaion in support of Palestine is fast winding down. .

So, it sems Israel killing 246 people is NOT a breach of the Ceasefire, while failing to find a few corpses of prisoners under the rubble created by Israel is breaking the agreeement and excuse for a punishment regime on 2 million Palestinians!
