ISRAEL IS USING STARVATION AS A “WAR ARM”
March 14, 2024Josep Borrell, the Foreign Policy Chief for the European Union, said that Israel is using starvation as a “war arm” in Gaza by preventing the entry of life-saving aid from the enclave’s land crossings.
Borrell added, “When we condemn this happening in Ukraine, we have to use the same words for what’s happening in Gaza.”
Whether or not they are truthful about what they are saying or not, it is important for people to hear the truth from European and Western leaders and politicians.

English Script:
Joseph Borell: But this is a Humanitarian crisis, which is not a natural disaster. It’s not a flood. It’s not an earthquake. It’s man-made. And when we look for alternative ways of providing support by sea or by air, we have to remind that we have to do it because a natural way of providing support through roads is being closed, artificially closed, and starvation is being used as a war arm. And when we condemned this happening in Ukraine, we had to use the same words for what’s happening in Gaza. Continue asking or more than asking Israel not to empaneled humanitarian support to go through the natural way, which is by road. And in the meantime, let’s try for other solution which will be less efficient and never an alternative to the hundreds of trucks that they should come into Gaza to avoid the starvation of hundreds of thousands of people. But let me remind something, UNRWA exists, because there are Palestinian refugees. It is not a present for the Palestinians, it is an answer to their needs. UNRWA exists because first there were Palestinian refugees. And we won’t make these refugees disappear by making UNRWA disappear. They will still be there. In fact, there is only one way to make UNRWA disappear, making those refugees citizens of a Palestinian state that coexists with an Israeli state. The two state solution, we talked about it many years ago and now we talk about it again. But admittedly, we have never seriously tried to make it a reality. And in order to make it a reality, the first step should be an unanimous resolution by this Security Council endorsing a two state solution and defining the general principle, which may lead to this result. And on that, the European Union is ready to cooperate.
