The Hunger Killing Gaza’s Children Has a Clear Cause that Few are Willing to Name out Loud
Following the February 29 Israeli slaughter of at least 115 starving Palestinians lined up for food aid, there was little or no outrage by the same Western media which would have howled if the perpetrator were Russia or Syria.

The Politics of Starvation
