    Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced on March 2 that
    “Israel has decided to stop letting goods and supplies into Gaza,”
    where the ongoing Israeli genocide, with the loyal backing of the
    United States, has officially killed more than 51,000 Palestinians
    since October 2023. The announcement regarding the total halt of
    humanitarian aid amounted to yet another explicit declaration of the
    starvation policy that Israel is pursuing in the Gaza Strip, a
    territory that — thanks in large part to 17 consecutive years of
    Israeli blockade — has long been largely dependent on such aid for
    survival. Of course, this was not the first time that senior Israeli
    officials had advertised their reliance on the war crime of forced
    starvation in the current genocidal assault on Gaza.
