As Palestinian civilians starve and are killed in Gaza, and Israeli families endure the misery of not knowing the fate of their families held hostage by Hamas, what is the political solution?

This week, a new poll confirmed that two-thirds of U.S. voters want the U.S. to call for a permanent ceasefire. When asked about support for a ceasefire that includes “the release of Israeli hostages from Gaza,” that support goes up to 75% of voters -- across the political spectrum.[1]

More war, bombing, and denial of food and medical supplies for Palestinian people is illegal.

The UN’s leading expert on the right to food said this week about Gaza:[2]

“We have never seen a civilian population made to go so hungry so quickly and so completely, that is the consensus among starvation experts. Israel is not just targeting civilians, it is trying to damn the future of the Palestinian people by harming their children.”

Babies are dying because their mothers are too malnourished to produce milk. In northern Gaza, 1 in 6 infants are suffering from acute malnutrition and wasting.

And this week, as a crowd of people tried to get flour and canned goods from a rare aid truck in northern Gaza, Israeli forces opened fire, killing 100 Palestinians and wounding 750 more.

A nearby journalist watched Israeli tanks then run over people in the street. He said: “It is a massacre, on top of the starvation threatening citizens in Gaza.”[3] One of the people who was shot said, "We've been eating animal feed for two months.”

Starving and more violence will not assure the release of the hostages.

In late January, the United Nation’s International Court of Justice (ICJ) ordered Israel’s government to act immediately to prevent genocide, including to “ensure the provision of urgently needed basic services and humanitarian assistance.”

Amnesty International said Israel’s government has “failed to take even the bare minimum steps to comply” with the ruling. They report that the situation has instead gotten much worse in the month since the ruling, with Israel’s government restricting the already-insufficient aid trucks entering Gaza by a further third.[4]

President Biden is not powerless in this. Please demand President Biden stop what Amnesty International is calling an “engineered famine,” by pressuring the Israeli government to increase aid to Gaza now.
