Middle East Gaza: We are dying slowly, save us !
‘We Are Dying Slowly’: Gaza Teeters on the Brink as Starvation Strikes GAZA — Starvation, chaos, and despair — that’s the grim new normal in Gaza, where desperate families are crying out for help as famine tightens its deadly grip. After months of warnings, UN-backed experts confirmed what Gazans have long known: the worst-case scenario is here. Famine isn’t looming — it’s landed. “All my children have lost almost half their body weight,” said Jamil Mughari, 38, from Maghazi. His five-year-old daughter now weighs just 11kg. His son Mohammad is, in his words, “skin and bones.” Mughari himself has dropped from 85kg to just 55. “I feel dizzy on the street,” he said. “Sometimes I shiver, but I force myself to stay upright.” This week, the horror deepened. The Palestinian death toll officially passed 60,000. But locals say the true figure — especially including those buried beneath Israeli airstrikes — is much higher. And now, hunger is becoming just as lethal as bombs and bullets. On Tuesday, the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) confirmed the disaster: “The worst-case scenario of famine is currently playing out in the Gaza Strip.” They called for an immediate ceasefire to stop the “catastrophic human suffering.” But for Gaza’s 2.2 million people, surviving hunger is now a daily fight. Aid is trickling in, but Israel’s tight restrictions have turned food into a black-market commodity — hoarded by the armed, sold at prices the poor can't touch. “We go a week or more without flour,” said Mughari. “Sometimes all we eat is lentils — if we’re lucky. Sometimes we drink water just to feel full.” He and his family have fled their home seven times since the war began — hunted by airstrikes, cornered by famine. “Soup kitchens are only in some camps,” he said. “And even then, people with weapons hijack the trucks and sell the food. The poor? We starve.” There are only four distribution points open daily — and just for a few frantic minutes. Hungry crowds, chaos, and worse — Israeli fire has turned these food lines into battlegrounds. Many have died just trying to eat. Mansoura Fadl al-Helou, a 58-year-old widow, is too weak to queue. Her only son wants to help, but she won’t let him risk it. “He might never come back,” she said. “The army shoots at the crowds. I’d rather go hungry than lose my son.” Her sentiment is echoed across the Strip. “I’ve had open-heart surgery. My kids are all under 12. We can’t even risk trying,” Mughari said. “I try to stay strong for them, but we’ve sent countless messages to the world. No one moves. We are dying slowly. Please — save us.” In Deir al-Balah, Abu al-Abed watches his children waste away. “My 14-year-old daughter’s ribcage is visible. My sons and daughters are dizzy from hunger. If I’m this weak, how must they feel?” With no income, no aid, and sky-high prices, families can’t survive. “Inflation is worse than in Europe,” he said. “Soup kitchens are gone. No one helps.” He no longer believes in slogans from the West. “All that talk of human rights was a lie,” he said bitterly. “If we’d asked them to save animals, they would’ve done it. But we’re Palestinians — no one cares. Not the Arabs, not the Muslims, not the Christians. No one.” The IPC report sparked a flicker of hope. But after months of silence, few expect action. “We’ve been starving for ages,” said al-Helou. “Maybe this message will wake the world up. Maybe.” And as for Britain’s pledge to recognise Palestine in September if no ceasefire is reached? “I don’t see how that helps,” she said flatly. “What kind of state has no sovereignty, no right to defend itself? Recognition means nothing if it’s just symbolic. We want a real state — with rights, protection, and dignity.” Until then, Gaza waits. Starving, pleading, and slowly dying — while the world watches. -

69% of Americans think the government is hiding something about Jeffrey Epstein
Correction. After he was in office, it's MAGAs who started to claim that their own administration was doing a cover up. They have been so deeply brainwashed into believing deep state conspiracy theories over time (pizzagate, birther, big lie, etc...), that some of them now cannot believe anything else! Of course, the Dems couldn't miss this opportunity to have Trump and MAGAs bitten in the ass by their own lies! And this opportunity was served on a silver trail by MAGAs! Personally, I never believed there was a client list, at least not as it was touted by MAGAs. However, I really enjoy watching Trump having a taste of his own medecine! 😆 -

Trump fires person in charge of jobs report
Oh dear, what are you on about with "dishonest lefties" and not altering posts. I haven't altered anything, I just replied to your post ridiculing a man in make-up and included a picture of another man in make up. Nothing altered in your post at all. Dishonest righties claiming people are altering something that they haven't touched.
