I don’t even have the ability to formulate a clever condemnation of what Israel and its enablers are doing to these children. Stunting them for life and starving them to death?! What kind of sociopath would still cling to the canard of self-defence?
Children suffering from malnutrition in Gaza will be stunted for life, "if they survive,"
@unicefchief
says. "It's a painful, painful death for children."
In maternity wards, "babies don't even have the energy to cry. It's a devastating thing to see," she says.

In 20 years of legal work, I've known judges to make some dubious remarks. Today’s declaration from Judge Barak is the most reprehensible I have encountered. This isn’t just moral bankruptcy; it’s a plunge into judicial depravity that should sicken the court, if not the world.
