- Abstract
This article, published by CounterPunch, discusses the ongoing violence and humanitarian crisis in Gaza, the West Bank, and Israel. Family Farm Defenders, an organization advocating for food justice and human rights, emphasizes the importance of the right to food and calls for an immediate ceasefire to end the suffering and starvation of the civilian population in Gaza. The article highlights the impact of occupation and restrictions on Palestinian farmers' ability to feed their people. It also mentions the International Court of Justice ruling that Israel must prevent acts of genocide and warns of a potential humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza. Family Farm Defenders urges the United States government to demand a ceasefire and end its military support to any entity violating international law.
