His name is Mohammad Al-Motawaq. He is 18 months old. And he is starving in Gaza

22. Israel does not itself send food, to be clear.

The international community, through the UN, and other NGOs send food.

Israel has an OBLIGATION, under international law (and humanity) to ensure it facilitates the delivery of aid to civilians. It has failed miserably at that, whether intentionally by design or not. I happpen to think it is.

Even if Hamas steals aid - which is denied and contested by the UN and USAID and other aid agencies as a systematic, widespread occurrence - the amount would be a drop in the bucket in an ocean of need. To use that drop as a pretext to starve the entire population is unconscionable and genocidal. Starvation breaks an entire society and destroys their future, the children. It is not just how many die but about the many permanently damaged.

Never again is happening now. In Gaza. It IS the point.
