That would be to allow hundreds of journalists into Gaza to report about things like whether or not children are starving.

But somehow the Israeli government doesn't want that to happen.

Oh, and stop censoring the reporting from Gaza. That would help too.

Then reasonable people can make up their own minds about what is happening there.

Something is self-evident. choie Jul 2025 #9

Indeed. Beastly Boy Jul 2025 #11

Will his condition be improved by starving him? jmbar2 Jul 2025 #4

No. His condition was genetic. We don't know whether starvation played a role in it. Beastly Boy Jul 2025 #10
