A Year of Slaughter and Starvation

by Daniel Larison

“For the last twelve months, the Palestinians of Gaza have endured an exceptionally brutal campaign of collective punishment and deliberate starvation at the hands of the Israeli government. According to a conservative estimate from American health workers that served in Gaza, at least 118,908 people have been killed by direct violence, starvation, and disease. There are estimates that the death toll may be much higher than that staggering number. It has been a year of slaughter and starvation without any reprieve, and that has been made possible by unconditional U.S. backing for the war.” (10/08/24)
