Indeed, I am speaking to you, my friend, from the ground, and through eyewitnesses who went to receive aid from the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation. People’s testimonies are full of oppression. They humiliate people, push them to push, and shoot at them whenever they approach the aid sites. They starve us and prevent us from approaching. They treat us like slaves. We must all be held accountable. This foundation must close its doors.And that all those who created and contributed to it be held accountable. And that it be replaced and distributed through UNRWA and the World Food Organization.
Genocide in Real Time
by Daniel Brouse
July 6, 2025
It is profoundly disturbing to witness the systematic genocide of a people in real time. Schools and hospitals have been bombed into rubble. Farmland has been contaminated with chemical weapons, ensuring long-term food insecurity and poisoning the soil for generations. The infrastructure—roads, electricity, water treatment plants—has been deliberately destroyed, leaving sewer water running through streets while disease spreads among the displaced.
Tens of thousands of children have been killed by these bombings, with countless others left as amputees, forced to undergo surgery without anesthesia or pain medication due to the total collapse of medical supply chains. Entire families are starving under siege, cut off from food, water, and basic medical care as fuel blockades prevent bakeries from operating and hospitals from functioning.
Now, these children and families are being driven into so-called “humanitarian zones,” which the UN itself has labeled “death traps.” People are herded under the promise of safety only to be bombed again, creating a cycle of forced displacement, starvation, and mass death—all documented, all visible to the world.
A few arrest warrants for war crimes have already been issued, but many more are needed, including for leaders in the United States who enable, arm, and defend these atrocities. It is a grim reflection on our own nation’s moral collapse that we continue to fund, support, and justify these actions while calling ourselves a beacon of democracy and human rights.
In a bitter twist of irony, it may be Donald Trump’s own reckless fiscal policies that finally dethrone the United States from its position of global leadership. Stripped of its exceptionalism and credibility, the U.S. may eventually face the same legal accountability it has helped to avoid for itself and its allies for decades. Perhaps then, at last, the world will be able to hold war criminals to account—no matter how powerful they are or where they hide.
Evangelical Christianity and Israel
If you’re curious about the driving force behind US support for Israel, it’s ironically rooted in Evangelical Christianity. Many Evangelical Christians believe they can hasten the “second coming of Christ” by bringing about the apocalypse. According to their interpretation of the Bible, this involves Israel reclaiming Jerusalem, Jesus returning, and ultimately eliminating all Jews. For numerous “Christian Zionists,” especially influential evangelists aligned with the Republican Party, support for Israel is less about political strategy and more about its supposed role in biblical prophecy. In this worldview, war is not something to be avoided but embraced as a divine necessity—an inevitable and even celebratory step toward Jesus’ rule from the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. The fate of Jews and Palestinians is, to put it mildly, seen as collateral damage.
