New Yorker publishes article about mystery starvation in Gaza
New Yorker staff writer Isaac Chotner earned bonus hasbara points on 3 January 2024 by getting an article published, “Gaza is starving”, that cleverly avoids any mention of the perpetrator—Israel in 2,000 words. A month before this article, on 7 December 2023, a Human Rights Watch press release had asserted that “The Israeli government is using starvation of civilians as a method of warfare in the Gaza Strip, which is a war crime.”
