How the Zionist regime glorifies mass starvation of Gaza population
The Mercury
|August 05, 2025
WORDS to describe the slaughter of Palestinians in Gaza may have been exhausted or hopelessly inadequate to explain the enormous disaster unleashed by the most evil and inhumane regime of the modern era.
Medics and health care workers along with courageous journalists have not only been at the receiving end as victims of drone strikes, bombings and forced detentions, but along with the civilian population of Gaza, they have and are enduring a living nightmare.
The testimonies they provide have shocked the world.
The images viewed across the globe display more than bloodied bodies, broken limbs and grieving families. They underscore the inhumanity of an ideology that justifies starvation as a weapon of vengeance.
As onlookers witnessing the unimaginable pain and suffering of mothers and babies, as well as the old and infirm denied medical support due to hospitals having been bombed and destroyed, South Africans may feel helpless but not disconnected.
They may regret their inability to physically storm the fortified barriers which the fascist occupying regime with the collusion of despotic Arab regimes, particularly Egypt, Jordan and Syria, has encircled the entire Strip with.
But words do not need boundaries. Nor does solidarity.
