Gaza famine could hurt people's health for decades | DW News

A new UN-backed food security assessment warns that half of the Palestinians in Gaza are now experiencing catastrophic hunger - and that famine could hit the north soon, if aid deliveries are not immediately increased. There's been growing unease among Israel's allies about the human cost of its war against Hamas, which began after the radical Islamist group's terror attack on October 7th.
For more on this, we talk to Martin Frick from the World Food Program. He joins us from Berlin.
And we talk to Hazem Balousha, a journalist who was based in Gaza in the first months of the war. He joins us now from Amman.

    There is no justification for an American veto that supports Netanyahu to continue killing children in Gaza And what negotiations are Mrs. Linda talking about? Aren't you aware that Netanyahu stated that there will be no negotiations? Isn't this a prolongation of Netanyahu's continued aggression against Gaza?

Mass starvation, I dare not even try to compare it to anything else because there is no comparison. At least the world could claim ignorance over the Holocaust.

    Jesus’ Command and Promise The Parable of the Good Samaritan A lawyer, desiring to justify himself, asked Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?” Jesus answered: “A priest saw a wounded man; but he passed by on the other side. A Levite saw him; also passed by on the other side. A Samaritan, when he saw the wounded man, had compassion. He poured oil and wine on his wounds; set him on his own animal; and gave an innkeeper two denarii, saying, ‘Take care of him, I will repay you when I come back.” Which of these three, do you think, proved to be a neighbor to the man who fell among the robbers?” Jesus asked him. “The one who showed him mercy,” the lawyer answered. And Jesus told him, “You go, and do likewise.” “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.” Jesus said, “Do this, and you will live.” -Luke 10:25-37

    It was scripted by her. She conducted military exercises and deployed missiles in Ukraine to force Russia to attack Ukraine. What would happen if Russia did the same thing in Cuba? The war in Ukraine is an evil means of exporting her inflation (currency) and energy at high prices around the world. She will maintain the war in the Middle East for a long time to keep energy prices high, preventing the decline in energy prices that a global economic downturn would cause as the war in Ukraine continues. She wants martial law to give her time to prepare another candidate to replace her current president, who is old and has memory problems. To achieve this, she uses her lover in Ukraine to attack mainland Russia and does not expose it to the public. Meanwhile, she tries to escalate the nuclear war crisis with money from her friends who don't have nuclear weapons. She will then suddenly cut off AI-related semiconductor supplies to China, forcing China to attack Taiwan. She will wage a war to destroy the semiconductor ecosystem in Taiwan and bring semiconductor technology personnel to her mainland. She wants hyperinflation, melting away the value of debt owed around the world. She seeks to create hyperinflation by destroying value chains through subsequent wars and high tariffs and blocking immigration. She wants to start again with her abundant resources, stolen semiconductor technology, and her labor costs become low on near furure. Who is she and how should we invest? Should I buy Bitcoin, the result of her semiconductor product income and energy waste? Or should I purchase silkworms that are inconvenient for online transactions? The problem is that those with policy-making power have a lot of assets denominated in her currency.
