INDRAJIT—(Quoting): The continued rise in the number of martyrs and victims among our Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip—whether due to direct killing committed by the criminal occupation army, the extreme cold, or the collapse of destroyed buildings on the heads of the displaced, as happened last night, leading to the martyrdom of four of our people and the death of several children—expresses a worsening humanitarian catastrophe. This is a direct result of the occupation’s deliberate policy of preventing the entry of aid and basic shelter materials, primarily caravans, tents, and heating supplies, as well as obstructing the entry of equipment necessary for rubble removal, which turns buildings prone to collapse into a permanent danger threatening the lives of civilians.”

No matter what he says or does – bomb countries, kidnap leaders, lead the world to nuclear war, persecute innocent immigrants, assume domestic powers unheard of heretofore, etc. – not one high official in his administration publicly objects or resigns, as they prefer to kill their consciences for power and gold. For all the macho talk emanating from the administration, it seems clear that it is staffed with moral cowards.
