Awful Feeling! 'Starving Palestinian Children Are Watching Me Eat Their Food '- Can't Take It Anymore
Am feeling some slight pangs of hunger as I sit down to my dinner, and the thought automatically arises, 'how could a starving person take the immeasurably more severe hunger pain caused by the strong contractions of the stomach when it's empty,' and that makes me think of the poor desperately hungry children being starved in Gaza. Am still aware of the good taste of the food in my mouth but suddenly am not enjoying eating.
I want to tell the children I feel are watching me eat, to go watch the sky for an American plane dropping meals to them,
(America has also been allowing its client state Israel to starve the citizens of Gaza by blocking food and water from entering into Gaza and U.S.A, has used its veto power to vote down demands of the UN Security Council for a ceasefire.)
Can't Take it Anymore
In his 93rd year this writer remembers all too well American warplanes dropping uncounted thousands of American bombs invariably landing on some millions of dear children, become our children, in Korea. In Vietnam, in Laos, in Cambodia, more recently in Iraq, and lesser amounts of bombs killing children in dozens of small countries in between Cambodia and Iraq.
Can't forget either the starvation American military interventions for regime change, invasions, bombings and cruel sanctions has caused, for it's children, become our children, who suffer and die firstly and mostly.
Oh, a reader might point out almost correctly, right now, it is the Israeli government and Israelis who are killing maiming and starving children, (our children), in its illegally militarily occupied Palestinian land Gaza, and not Americans. But the kids starring at me while I eat uncomfortably are not backing away, letting me off the hook. I am doomed to have lost any chance of regaining "ignorance is bliss" for having years ago subscribed to the daily news letter "Information Clearing House" and since October 7, have been Googling "Al Jazeera" for 'news of Palestine' every morning.
