To all of us witnessing this genocide in horror from this post: "Despair is a privilege we must do without."

From Michael Fakhri, UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Food, before the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva:

“The images of starvation in Gaza are unbearable. And you’re doing nothing. You talk, and you talk, and you talk, and you give us lovely words. How is it that the Human Rights Council is not addressing a situation in which we’ve never seen a civilian population go so hungry, and so completely, in any time in modern history. We’ve never seen children pushed into malnutrition so quickly. This is on your watch. Please, turn your words into action.”
