Israel has stopped all eight going into Gaza on the second day of the holy month of Ramadan.

Nara Paz, Nara break down in negotiations, a weapon.

They've shoved the bombs for now and picked up hunger and starvation.

This is not a ceasefire. This is siege warfare and slow motion.

14-year-old Mohammed Ibrahim al-Mazshih and his older brother, Hadefah,

were tending their crops in Beitlaqah this morning, trying to keep their family alive,

when Israeli drones killed them and two others.

Two more names, well four more names, to be buried beneath the land that they were trying to protect.

You see, this war never paused. It just learned to starve instead of bomb.

What Israel couldn't destroy through fire, it's trying to wipe out through famine.

And while the world debates semantics, pause, cease fire, humanitarian aid,

Palestinians are being killed without the sound of explosions to mark their deaths.

It's a quieter kind of killing, but make no mistake, it's still genocide.

The ICC knows it, the Icy J knows it, and that's why they've already found genocide plausible,

and why arrest warrants have been issued for Netanyahu and Galent.

But the US is still writing the checks.

Another $4 billion to Israel just this weekend on top of $14 billion since January,

weapons to bomb Gaza bulldozers to raise the West Bank.

Just one day before this latest aid package, the US approved $295 million worth of armed bulldozers.

The same exact machines Israel is using right now to flatten homes in Noushamps camp in Turkar.

A genocide bankroll by American tax dollars while millions of Americans can't afford to feed their own families.

Israel has been suffering since October 7th, but not the way Palestinians have, of course.

Their economy is collapsing.

130 of their own top economists have warned that Israel is in a spiral of collapse.

Tech companies are fleeing, brain drain is accelerating, and the country's credit rating is teetering on junk status.

In the 50 country nations, Brand Index Israel is ranked dead last, a pariah state, both in reputation and in reality.

But what Israel couldn't achieve through military force, the defeat of Hamas, the breaking of Palestinian resistance and resilience,

they're now trying to achieve through political blackmail, weaponizing aid, weaponizing time.

And the world is letting them.

Arab leaders shake hands, draft statements, offer Israel normalization deals in exchange for the bare minimum.

More food, fewer massacres.

But the trucks are still empty, the borders are still sealed.

470 days into this genocide, and Israel has failed to achieve a single one of its stated objectives.

Hamas still holds hostages, and Palestinians still refuse to disappear.

And that's why Netanyahu is playing hardball.

Not because he's strong, but because he's cornered.

He's calling up 400,000 reservists, threatening to reignite the war because starvation isn't working fast enough.

But here's the truth.

Israel can't afford another full-scale invasion.

Its resources are at an all-time low. Its soldiers exhausted. Its global standing crumbly.

The only reason this massacre, this genocide continues, is because the US keeps writing the checks, and the rest of the world keeps looking away.

Because Israel's greatest weapon isn't its F-16s or its billions in US military aid.

It's the silence of the world.

But silence is not neutrality, it's complicity.

And every minute that aid is blocked, everybody buried under the rubble, every child starved in darkness, that silence gets louder.

A people who have survived 76 years of ethnic cleansing cannot be erased.

Even if you starve them, even if you bomb them, even if you bury them beneath the land.

If they refuse to surrender, they're still here, and they will outlive every and any empire that tries to disappear.
