Please read the IPC report
cover to cover.
Read it in sorrow and in anger,
not as words and numbers,
but as names and lives.
Be in no doubt that this is irrefutable
testimony.
It is a famine,
the Gaza famine.
It is a famine that we could have
prevented.
It is a famine that hits the most
vulnerable first. Each with a name, each
with a story.
That strips people of dignity before it
strips them of life.
That forces a parent to choose which
child to feed.
That forces people to risk their lives
to seek food.
It is a famine that we repeatedly warned
of,
but that the international media has not
been allowed in to cover, to bear
witness.
It is a famine in 2025,
a 21st century famine watched over by
drones and the most advanced military
technology in history.
It is a famine openly promoted by some
Israeli leaders as a weapon of war.
It is a famine on all of our watch.
Everyone owns this. The Gaza famine is
the world's famine.
It is a famine that asks,
"But what did you do?"
A famine that will and must haunt us
all.
is it is a predictable and a preventable
famine. A famine caused by cruelty,
justified by revenge, enabled by
indifference,
and sustained by complicity.
It is a famine that must spur the world
to more urgent action, that must shame
the world to do better.
It is a famine that therefore also asks,
"And what now will you do?"
My ask, my plea, my demand to Prime
Minister Netanyahu and anyone who can
reach him, enough.
Ceasefire.
Open the crossings north and south. All
of them. Let us get food and other
supplies in unimpeded
and at the massive scale required.
End the retribution.
It is too late for far too many, but not
for everyone in Gaza.
Enough.
For humanity's sake, let us in.
Thank you.
