The White House has been eerily muted on what could be the deadliest turning point in the war – the unlawful ground invasion of Gaza City.
Netanyahu has confirmed reports that Israel plans an extreme escalation in Gaza, which will entail the total military occupation of the entire enclave and the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians, which the Israeli spin machine has termed “voluntary migration”.
The deliberate starvation of Gaza is part of a long history of Israel weaponising food and water to control, subjugate, and, ultimately, displace Palestinians.
