Let me show you (Photos & Videos) what the Palestinians being starved to death by Israel and America look like.
The mainstream American news media simply won't tell the truth so we must tell it and show it to you ourselves.
✊🏽 Before you read this…
I want to ask you for something important.
Right now, people in Gaza are being starved to death. On purpose. By Israel and the United States. And the media won’t call it what it is. The politicians won’t speak the truth. And most platforms won’t even let us describe it clearly.
That’s why I’m here. And that’s why The North Star exists.
If this platform matters to you — if you believe the truth should be spoken even when it’s hard, even when it’s banned, even when it hurts — I’m asking you to become a paid member today:

Do you think that if millions of Israelis, in 2025, were emaciated skeletons that are starving to death that you might see their images and videos on television, on the news, and all across newspapers around the world? OF COURSE YOU WOULD.
So let me explain to you why you aren’t seeing what I am about to show you in the American news media…
BECAUSE THEY ARE COMPLICIT.
The American news media is primarily owned by filthy rich billionaires and multi-billion dollar conglomerates that exist not to inform you, but exist to deliver money and power and influence to their owners and shareholders. Not one mainstream media outlet in the West has ever treated Palestinians with an ounce of fairness or dignity - not now - or ever.
And so right now, millions of Palestinians in Gaza are literally starving to death, but you simply wouldn’t know it if you get your news from “the news” as we know it. My own friends in Gaza that I truly love and pray for and think about non stop are starving to death. They tell me now that they are dizzy, delirious, sleepless, paranoid, hopeless, and full of pains they’ve never felt before. They are dying and they know it.
And I want to show you, daily, what this looks like because powerful people do not want you to see this. That’s why Israel won’t even let any news media to film and document this genocide.
Please pray for them. Even if you haven’t prayed in a very long time. And as soon as we can get food into Gaza I’ll tell you how you can help.
As I worked on this early this morning, I am learning that I have limits on how many photos and videos I can embed. Sadly, I have thousands more and will share them as often as I have to for us to understand what’s happening.
People keep saying Palestinians in Gaza are “starving.”
But that word — starving — makes it sound accidental. Like a natural disaster. Like a famine that just happened.
Let me say this as clearly as I can:
Palestinians in Gaza are not just starving. They are being starved.
By Israel.
With full backing from the United States.
This isn’t drought.
It’s not climate change.
It’s not crop failure.
It’s not war disrupting aid routes.
This is intentional, calculated, and deliberate.
Right now, months and months worth of food is sitting just outside of Gaza — in convoys, in containers, in trucks, in warehouses.
Ready to move.
Ready to save lives.
But Israel is blocking it. And America is signing off on that blockade.
Children are dying of hunger not because the world lacks food — but because those in power are enforcing a siege designed to punish 2 million people for existing.
This is forced starvation.
This is the weaponization of hunger.
And this is a war crime in real time.
Love and appreciate each of you.
Your friend and brother,
Shaun
We are building the Human Rights Scorecard to track every U.S. politician on their votes, their donors, their lobbyist money, and their public silence — or courage — on issues of war, genocide, and human rights. With billions in weapons flowing to Israel, and politicians from both parties complicit in mass violence, we need a tool that exposes the truth — before you donate, volunteer, or vote. No more guessing. No more relying on party lines. We’re building receipts and we want you to join us, OK?
This tool is being built by the people, for the people. We don’t take corporate money. We don’t answer to political parties. Every dollar raised helps us gather data, design public profiles, and build a platform the powerful don’t want to exist. If you believe in truth, transparency, and accountability — please chip in today to help us finish this tool. You can give one-time or become a monthly donor here.
