Heritage Minister Amichay Eliyahu - who previously urged considering nuclear strike on Strip - says the civilian population in Gaza is complicit and should suffer to pressure Hamas

In Private, Some Israeli Officers Admit That Gaza Is on the Brink of Starvation
Some Israeli military officials have privately concluded that Palestinians in Gaza face widespread starvation unless aid deliveries are restored within weeks, according to three Israeli defense officials familiar with conditions in the enclave.For months, Israel has maintained that its blockade on food and fuel to Gaza did not pose a major threat to civilian life in the territory, even as the United Nations and other aid agencies have said a famine was looming.
But Israeli military officers who monitor humanitarian conditions in Gaza have warned their commanders in recent days that unless the blockade is lifted quickly, many areas of the enclave will likely run out of enough food to meet minimum daily nutritional needs, according to the defense officials. They spoke on the condition of anonymity to share sensitive details.
For the Netanyahu government famine in Gaza is not a looming humanitarian disaster.....it's a policy goal.
