A starving Palestinian boy in Gaza, frail from malnutrition, collapsed beside his mother and succumbed to hunger. The West is exterminating the children. Zionists are exterminating the children. #GazaStarving .#GazaIsStarving .#GazaHolocaust

Israel is deliberately starving Gaza. Where is the wall-to-wall coverage and global outrage? How can this be normalized?
