I think "is being starved" a more appropriate description.

I don't want anyone to starve, but the UN lying about Israel is older than I am and so stupidly easily falsifiable, often from the UN's own data. Arif Husain no doubt saw Yemen and just decided to lie. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

If a person wants to know what they would have been doing during Hitlers reign, they can just look in the mirror. Germans then, also thought they were doing something that was acceptable. Genocide and forcing humans into a ghetto of starvation and torture! Kharma will find you.

If only we could figure out what is causing this terrible famine, it’s such a mystery, we will never know….sigh.
