Israel controls the flow of food into Gaza. It has calculated how many calories Palestinians need to stay alive. Its data shows only a fraction has been allowed in

      And people do not simply die of hunger. A healthy human can go about a month without food. Granted, your body will start eating itself, and you’ll be more likely to die to all the other things that can kill in a warzone. But starvation itself takes ages to kill; and will do massive damage to you prior to being lethal.

    I have been getting ads on youtube that are like ‘misinformation is spreading! israel is NOT causing starvation and genocide in gaza’, and it really bothers me. dystopian asf to have someone paying money to run ads to keep people from realising atrocities are happening right now.
