I had the opportunity to communicate with some members of my family. The situation is unbelievable. Hungry dogs are eating the remains of bodies buried under the rubble in Gaza City. The smell of decay pervades the city. There will be catastrophic health consequences. Food and clean water are scarce. One of my nieces was taken to the hospital because of lack of food two days ago. People are beginning to experience starvation in its most literal sense. They spend 7 hours in line to receive a single piece of bread for each member of the family. When food is found, it's exorbitantly expensive. If this continues before our very eyes, it will turn into a horrendous BLACK MOMENT IN HUMAN HISTORY.

most likely, hamas showed up on motorbikes and paragliders with a couple thousand dollars in arms and *embarrassed* the idf. the guys who grew up in an open air prison fought the occupation state and kicked their ass. embarrassing narrative, so we were given 40 beheaded babies.
