Every dot stands for a life erased, a family shattered, in a systematic campaign to destroy an entire people.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s been a year since the Hamas\u2019 terrorist attack on Israel, and in that time, Israel has responded with the kind of terror force that makes the original attack look like a firecracker. According to Gaza&#8217;s Health Ministry, as of October 6th, we&#8217;re talking about 41,800 dead and nearly 100,000 injured\u2014half of them women and children. The U.N. estimates that 1.9 million people have been displaced in Gaza, which is almost 90% of the population. And 65% of all structures in Gaza\u2014about 163,700 buildings\u2014have been hit. The World Health Organization says over 10,000 bodies are probably still buried under the rubble.<\/p>\n<p>To make things worse, Israel has not just blocked aid but actively destroyed the resources needed to help the wounded. And even though the death toll is already astronomical, plenty of people think these numbers are actually lower than reality.<\/p>\n<p>This isn\u2019t a war, and it\u2019s not &#8220;proportional retaliation&#8221; either. It\u2019s genocide, plain and simple. Don\u2019t believe it? Listen to Netanyahu and his cabinet\u2019s own words, and scroll through a few IDF TikTok videos and you\u2019ll see all the proof you need.<\/p>\n<p>As long as the U.S. keeps rubber-stamping Israel\u2019s actions, the bloodbath will continue. With Biden, Harris, and even Trump lining up to pledge their support, don\u2019t expect this nightmare to end anytime soon.<\/p>\n<p>__________________________________________<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Racket-Cartoons-daniel-medina-e1678774481899.webp\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-231508\" src=\"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Racket-Cartoons-daniel-medina-e1678774481899.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"90\" height=\"90\" \/><\/a>Daniel Medina &#8211; My cartoons stand up firmly against racism, xenophobia, hate bigotry, and ignorance.
