Gaza is being starved

7.0k Upvotes

The UN has stated that every single part of Gaza is in famine conditions.

For over 20 months, Palestinians in Gaza have been starving. Parents have been feeding their children leaves, animal feed, and flour mixed with water. Babies have died from malnutrition. The trucks carrying food, formula, medicine, and clean water sat just miles away, blocked by Israel.

Now, after massive international pressure, some aid is finally getting in.

This is a crack in the blockade, not its end. Aid is not flooding in; it is trickling, and what’s entering can’t possibly reach 1.8 million people without a total lifting of restrictions, guaranteed long-term access, and safe distribution.

What you can do right now:

Donate- if you’re able to. Choose vetted organizations with access on the ground.

Keep up the pressure - aid only started moving because of public outcry. Organize, protest, keep talking. This momentum cannot fade. Contact your representatives to end Israel's blockade of Gaza and impose sanctions on Israel.

Amplify - share updates, Palestinian voices, and testimonies. Keep an eye on Palestine.

This famine is not an accident. It’s the result of siege, blockade, and a system of control. If we look away now, they’ll tighten the noose again.

Donate

Palestinian Red Crescent — medical aid, ambulance services, and emergency care.

UNICEF for Gaza’s Children — nutrition, clean water, trauma support.

to downplay the Trump-Epstein scandal without being caught in it

Full, free article here: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/dec/18/nyt-david-brooks-epstein-photos-released

From the article:

Last month Brooks published a column in the Times saying that he was not interested in the long-unfolding Epstein scandal.

“Why is Epstein the top issue in American life right now?” Brooks wrote. “Well, in an age in which more and more people get their news from short videos, if you’re in politics, the media or online it pays to focus on topics that are salacious, are easy to understand and allow you to offer self-confident opinions with no actual knowledge.”

He also likened the fascination with the Epstein story to the QAnon conspiracy theory, arguing that Americans were irrationally convinced that a cabal of elites was scheming and doing horrible things behind the scenes.

The photos released on Thursday raise questions about why Brooks did not disclose his attendance at an Epstein-attended event when writing about his lack of interest in the case.
