Gaza is starving — and we are just watching
Following the Gandhi-Nehru tradition, India should have gathered the courage to say that starvation in Gaza is not collateral damage, it is calculated.
AS Gaza continues to be battered and starved by Israel, the conscience of the world lies buried beneath geopolitical calculations and a shameful silence. The UN has warned of "famine-like conditions." Human rights observers call it deliberate and violent deprivation. But, we must call it what it truly is: genocide by starvation. As every day the world stays silent, it becomes a collaborator in this slow, systematic annihilation of an entire people. Gaza has become a symbol not just of suffering, but also of how easy it is to kill with impunity when the world refuses to speak.
