7. There's lots of outrage outside the U.S. bubble, though that is changing too.

But there should be tons more. Every person should be outraged.

To those who are not, I say - how can you not be? You would be if these were your children, parents, siblings. What's the difference?? All you need to do is imagine YOUR loved ones in THEIR shoes. It shouldn't be that hard.

Imagine your kids when they were little gping through 21 months of pure terror. If they made it whole to this point they are still severely traumatized, malnourished, stunted, diseased, ill and in pain and despairing. Everything they knew is gone but for the sea. The last thing to be taken from them is the sea. No getting clean, no play, no relief - from the heat and dirt or from their constant torment. And all this would be known to the people dictating this policy. If they don't know, it's because they are completely lacking in compassion or they don't hold Gaza's children in the same regard and the same care as all children universally. That is a big moral failure.

There are no excuses left. This is not "war", this is deliberate, calculated cruelty for revenge and political gain.
