Vice President Kamala Harris said on Sunday that "people in Gaza are starving" and called for "an immediate ceasefire" as part of a hostage deal between Israel and Hamas.
Why it matters: Harris' remarks were the Biden administration's most comprehensive recognition of the suffering in Gaza and strongest appeal for a ceasefire. They come as the Biden administration urgently pushes for a ceasefire and hostage deal before the holy month of Ramadan begins on March 10. "Given the immense scale of suffering in Gaza, there must be an immediate ceasefire for at least the next 6 weeks. This is what is currently on the table," she said, urging Hamas to accept such a deal. What she's saying: "What we are seeing every day in Gaza is devastating. We have seen reports of families eating leaves and animal feed, children dying from malnutrition and dehydration. Too many innocent Palestinian have been killed," Harris said.
Harris called the situation in Gaza "inhumane" and "a humanitarian catastrophe" and said "our common humanity compels us to act." She demanded the Israeli government do more to facilitate the flow of significantly more aid.

“people in Gaza are starving”
Second of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
WAR they started.
Famine now
Pestilence next
Then DEATH.
Think before you start a war.
Hamas is hoarding humanitarian aid.
Let’s see, maybe they should have thought of that before slaughtering 1700 Israelis in cold blood
Israel knows. Joe Biden is worried now because he may lose Michigan because the Muslims may boycott the election so he’s pandering now.
I’m sure the people of ukraine aren’t doing great but I haven’t heard Biden call for a ceasefire there
Here we go. Biden will follow with his own call - and careless action - later this week, for sure. Biden himself had predicted a “hostage-cease fire deal” for Monday last week. Israel blew that up today. So now the ugly battle is exposed and on. Will Bibi stand his ground?
I have a solution!
Tell the French or Qatari banks that are home to the Arafat billions to cough up the money and feed the people.
It very well could be a trial balloon and test her statements against mooselimes in Michigan. Because President Trump wins Michigan, it's over, rover.
They can stop fighting anytime, release the hostages and surrender and end this anytime they wish. They can also illegal cross over into Egypt anytime they wish just as easy as they invaded Israel.
I don’t want to hear one word about them being “hungry” as they continue to shoot rockets at Israel and are holding hostages.
Dropping food aid into them now would be like us dropping food aid into the GUARDS at Auschwitz while the war was still going on and while they were continuing to gas the jews!
I have a feeling that the party machine will use mail in votes so it doesn’t matter if the Muslims are going to boycott the election in Michigan this November.
Fu(king (ommunist.
Hamas should surrender and release as all hostages. Then nobody would be starving anymore.
Like the Japanese did when faced with annilation.
Whatever you say, Eeyore...
Whoreizontal says.
Oh, the humanity.
During the 2023 Hamas-led attack on Israel, Israeli women and girls were reportedly raped, assaulted and mutilated by Hamas militants. Hamas is accused of having committing acts of gender-based violence, war crimes and crimes against humanity in keeping with the recognition of The International Criminal Court (ICC) that sexual violence is a war crime and a crime against humanity.
It was reported that some released hostages’ testimonies indicated that both female and male hostages had been subjected to sexual violence by their captors while being held by Hamas in Gaza.
On December 5, Joe Biden called for global condemnation of “the sexual violence of Hamas terrorists without equivocation”, calling the events “horrific”.
Five days later, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken called the sexual violence inflicted by Hamas “almost beyond human description or beyond our capacity to digest”, and criticized International organizations such as UN Women for being too slow to condemn them.
Excerpted from Wikipedia.
Hamas isn’t starving-they are hoarding the food sent to Gaza for the “palestinian people” living there. Hamas is seizing it from their pals in UNWRA who helped the original Oct. 7 attacks. UN “workers” in league with Hamas. FACT.
Not starving enough apparently. If they get hungry enough, they can strip down to their skivvies and walk out with their hands up.
My guess is that there’s 50,000 Hamas fighters hiding underneath the tunnels. They were able to stockpile supplies when they launched the 10/7 attacks. My guess is that they had enough to ride out the war for six months. But if they are capturing aid supplies, then they can continue the war indefinitely.
She gonna make the same statement pertaining to Russia and Ukraine too?
The war will end when the Hamazis lay down their weapons and return the hostages. Until then, buck you, fitch!
