Gaza Starves to Death: A U.S.-Israeli Siege Turns a Bite of Bread into a Deadly Gamble

4

In one of the most heinous crimes against humanity in modern times, over two million people in the besieged Gaza Strip are enduring a sweeping Zionist holocaust—one that combines relentless bombardment, starvation, and destruction. The Israeli enemy does not stop at shedding blood; it wages a war to crush the very will to live on the faces of Gaza’s exhausted children and women.

As the remains of martyrs lie scattered across neighborhoods, markets, and mosques, the horror intensifies through a deliberate policy of starvation that has turned bread into a dream—and a bite into a fatal risk.


Hunger Devours Gaza’s Face… Mothers Collapse in Front of Their Children

From displacement tents to the rubble of destroyed homes, testimonies of human disgrace continue to pile up. Amina, a mother of three, collapsed while doing laundry. Her emaciated body could no longer bear the pain of hunger. “I give everything to my children,” she said. “But my heart is tired, and my body is breaking down.”

She hasn’t had a full meal in over four months—surviving at times on rice water or a few spoonfuls of boiled lentils. Like thousands of mothers, she silently deteriorates, while the world neither hears the cries of hunger nor sees the agony of mothers.

In Sheikh Radwan neighborhood, Hanaa Al-Khaldi fainted while mixing leftover rice and pasta in an attempt to make something bread-like. After regaining consciousness, she whispered: “My daughter cries every time I close my eyes… She thinks I died and won’t come back.”

Yousef Al-Habeel sat atop the ruins of his home, too weak to move. His voice trembling, tears overtaking his words: “My son tells me, ‘Dad, I want bread’… and I swear, I have nothing.” His seven-year-old daughter Alaa can no longer walk—she looks like an old woman… hunger has devoured her face.


Children of Gaza: They Left in Search of Food, Only to Find Death

In a scene too cruel for words, four children from one family in Deir al-Balah went out searching for a nutritional supplement being distributed to the poor. Two returned as fragments. One joined them as a martyr. The fourth now fights for life.

Omar, Ameer, Sama, and Siraj—four children whose biggest hope was to find something that “tastes sweet.” The Israeli response? A missile that tore through their small bodies… just meters from a medical point that became their final stop.

Siraj’s mother says: “He was crying from hunger… They went to get a supplement. They returned as martyrs.”

With the health system collapsed, no fuel, and no ambulances, their remains were transported to Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital on a donkey cart. That hospital is now little more than a waiting room for the dead—thanks to the siege and bombardment.


Starvation as Holocaust: Israel’s Most Lethal Weapon

What’s unfolding in Gaza today is no longer merely a military assault—it is systematic extermination by starvation and thirst. No flour. No clean water. No medicine. Not even electricity.

This Israeli policy is not random. It is meticulously designed to subdue an entire population through psychological and societal warfare. The enemy blocks aid, bombs bakeries, destroys water purification plants, targets shelters and hospitals, and shuts border crossings.

Meanwhile, international relief organizations are limited to issuing impotent statements that fail to match the scale of the catastrophe.


Genocide by the Numbers: 59,733 Killed, 144,477 Injured… And Counting

Since October 7th, Israel—with direct American and Western support and disgraceful Arab silence—has committed ongoing acts of genocide that go beyond the horrors of fascism or Nazism. As of now:

  • 59,733 martyrs, most of them women and children.

  • 144,477 injuries, many with amputations or permanent disabilities.

  • Over 70% of Gaza’s infrastructure destroyed.

  • Escalating famine, with over one million children at risk of severe malnutrition.


Famine as a Weapon: A U.S.-Israeli Doctrine of Eradication

What’s happening in Gaza is not a “humanitarian disaster” as Western media frames it—it is a deliberate, systematic genocide carried out by the Zionist military machine with direct U.S. complicity and disgraceful Arab and European silence. Starvation is being used as a weapon of war to kill Palestinians quietly, after bombing and bullets failed to break their will.

Food, medicine, fuel—these are not collateral damages. They are intentional military targets in the enemy’s doctrine, which bets that hunger might succeed where tanks and warplanes could not.


The Machinery of Extermination: Global Silence, Washington’s Partnership

Since October 7, 2023, Israel has committed more than 59,733 documented massacres against the Palestinian people, leaving over 144,477 wounded. These are not mere numbers—they are damning evidence of the collapse of international law and the transformation of the West into an accomplice in a crime against humanity with no parallel.


Gaza Does Not Fall… But It Is Dying Slowly

Despite the wounds, the hunger, and the betrayal—Gaza has not fallen. But it is being killed slowly. Its people are dying—not because they are weak, but because the killer has chosen to cut off food, medicine, water, and life itself. And the world watches in shameful silence.

Yet amid this hell, one question remains:
How much longer will the human conscience stay absent?
Will Gaza continue to be besieged, starved, and erased… while the “free world” is too busy hosting parties of hypocrisy and pretense?
