Our Unhinged Government
Some months ago, I pointed out that a benefit of Preacher Johnnie Moore’s taxpayer-funded defense firm, the Orwellian labeled Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, had one benefit and one benefit only. It would allow its American employees, former soldiers in many cases, to be on the ground in Gaza seeing what the US is faithfully funding, and what Israel has done and is doing.
Israel, with the active support and blessing of over 80% of Israelis since late 2023, has been violently destroying Gazan structures, food and water systems, education, healthcare, along with many of the 2.3 million Palestinians who had created a culture and an economy – in spite of decades of periodic attacks, and the occupying state’s military domination and constantly evolving restrictions on trade, travel and movement. In spite of this, and perhaps shocking to many Zionists, Gaza has survived and thus far, resisted its intended demise.
The tiny strip is now a moonscape, courtesy of the equivalent of 8 Hiroshima sized nuclear detonations, over half a million Gazans have been killed or lost in the rubble, and the intentional starvation, intensified in March by Israel, is reaching its tipping point.
Acute famine is part of the US and Israeli strategy for Gaza. IPC Phase Five has been purposely created in Gaza, and the upcoming and imminent stage is massive human losses as the weakest and sickest are already dead, and the stronger and healthier segments of society themselves begin to starve to death. Resistance to disease for Gazans has already collapsed.
How do we know what starvation does to a population? Because state-enforced starvation is a common historical tactic of empires and states against those they intend to punish and dominate. The US government is happy to recognize and abhor the state starvations of populations, as we see in this recent US commemoration of the 91st anniversary of the Holomodor. We study in universities the state conducted starvation and genocide against Jews and others by the World War II Axis powers. The government of Israel, and that of the United States, presides over a deep body of knowledge about engineering starvation and famine, and profiting from it.
The powerful conversation between Tucker Carlson and recently retired Army LTC Tony Agular this week is a point of light emerging from the fact that US soldiers are
