Analysis: Protests against GHF, which uses food as bait to kill Gazans, have spread to planners of the scheme, eg, Boston Consulting Group. An offshoot of BCG reportedly chastised a contractor "for refusing to shoot Palestinian children." BCG was also reportedly "critical" for the success of Saudi's murderous leader.

Why are people protesting against the Boston Consulting Group?
The consulting firm helped model a plan for what the United Nations described as 'ethnic cleansing' in Gaza

"The propagandist’s purpose is to make one set of people forget that certain other sets of people are human" ~Aldous Huxley The US says "the bonds between the US & Israel are unbreakable. Now, the ties that bind are laced with genocide." "The two countries function as accomplices while methodical killing continues in Gaza, with both societies directly... making it all possible."

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.

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 Biden's Washington & Tel Aviv. The resolution reaffirmed that “starvation of civilians as a method of combat is prohibited under international humanitarian law."

Poll: "60% of Americans said they disapprove of Israel's military action". 32% approve. "52% said they see Netanyahu in a negative light - a significant shift from a year & a half ago" & the lowest stretching back to the 1990s. Most who approve of Netanyahu & his actions are older white Republican men.

Most Americans do not support Israel's war on Gaza, polling shows
There are also drastic gaps between Republican and Democrat attitudes to Israel's conduct in both Gaza and Iran

Palestinian statehood is a right, not a diplomatic pawn for Starmer to play with. Starmer is undermining the recognition of Palestinian statehood & self-determination as a right. He's framing it as something conditional on Israeli intransigence. The most egregious failure of Starmer's announcement lies in the absence of any sanctions on Israel for its conduct in Gaza, even as it continues its genocide.

Why did the UK say it will recognise a Palestinian state?
UK urges Israel to take substantive steps to end the horror in Gaza and commit to negotiations on a two-state solution.
