Report: Israel is brutally detaining Gaza hospital director as a bargaining chip. "Held without charge for 7 months, Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya has been beaten, starved, isolated, & cut off from his family. His freedom is nowhere in sight". Safiya's lawyer, Kassem, "believes he is being held as a bargaining chip in negotiations. It therefore seems unlikely that he will be released before the war is over." https://www.972mag.com/hussam-abu-safiya-israeli-detention/ #USPol #EuroPol #IsraeliLies #Palestine @palestine group .
Analysis: "Israel’s genocide is big business & the face of the future" Business & military planners welcome the new ‘legal maneuver space’ to slaughter & starve civilians. Pro-genocide nations are normalising Israel's genocide so that they, too, can "commit crimes against humanity in full view." This is why they are so intent on presenting genocide as business as usual & demonising its opponents.

Analysis: The US & Israel, alone, voted against a 2021 UN resolution to make food a human right. The Gaza aid blockade foretold: "The UN resolution was adopted despite opposition from Washington & Tel Aviv." It reaffirmed that “starvation of civilians as a method of combat is prohibited under international humanitarian law."

"Is this Gaza’s ‘bomb the tracks’ moment?" "With Gaza’s annihilation in plain sight, the question is what can compel global intervention to end Israel's genocide & what form it will take." Rights groups recently called for countries to dispatch high-level diplomatic missions "to accompany the aid trucks already waiting at the Rafah Crossing, & to enter Gaza alongside them.” "All options should be on the table." https://www.972mag.com/gaza-genocide-global-intervention-holocaust/ #USPol #EuroPol #BDS #GazaGenocide @palestine group .
"This is our only hope," says Craig Mokhiber former head of the UN in NY, who resigned in disgust at UN leadership inaction on Israel's genocide. Under the "Uniting for Peace" resolution, the UN General Assembly can mandate an armed emergency force to Gaza. The UN General Assembly is not subject to veto. The US cannot stop it. This can work.

UNRWA's chief, Philippe Lazzarini: "UNRWA has the equivalent of 6,000 trucks in Jordan and Egypt waiting for the green light to get into Gaza”. “Driving aid through is much easier, more effective, faster, cheaper and safer than airdrops." "It is also more dignified for the people of Gaza."

Interview: GHF sites: "They're criminal", says retired US officer, Anthony Aguilar, who worked there as a contractor. "I witnessed war crimes". "At the hands of the IDF & US contractors". In his entire military career, said Aguilar, he had never witnessed such a level of "brutality & use of indiscriminate & unnecessary force against a civilian population, an unarmed, starving population."
