After seven months I am baffled that so-called intellectuals can’t grasp the most basic truth that there are humans around the world live-streaming the most barbaric slaughter of fellow humans and wanting it to stop. That’s it. You can stop writing your op-eds and go home now.

NEW: Latest The News Agents Investigates - Britain’s hidden homeless children

Devastating Fergal Keane piece on BBC News (UK) 10 just now, using an American medic’s footage from Gaza. Children nearly dead from starvation-gaunt, lifeless, cadaverous. Unimaginable suffering for innocents.
