Gov’t workers to go on ‘hunger strike’ to protest Biden support for Israel
January 30, 2024 | Tom Tillison

The left is pulling out all the stops to pressure President Biden to force a ceasefire in the Israeli-Hamas war that’s now entering four months.

Feds United for Peace told the Guardian its members will participate in a “day of fasting” Thursday to call attention to Israel’s use of “starvation as a weapon of war by intentionally withholding food from entering Gaza.”

The group of anonymous workers at over two dozen U.S. government agencies has already held a walkout in support of the Palestinian people, citing unreliable casualty statistics put out by the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry — the agency claims the death toll has surpassed 26,000 and more than 64,000 have been injured.

Those participating in the hunger strike are encouraged to wear keffiyehs, a Palestinian scarf that is being used in a show of solidarity with those in the Gaza Strip.

My guess is that most of these employees could stand to miss more than a meal or three.  If Biden was a man they would be missing a paycheck going forward.

Can you still drink alcohol and smoke dope while on a hunger strike? That may be a deal breaker for a good number of government employees.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Exactly!  Let all of Gaza starve, and the idiot government employees, who gives a sh*t about what they do or don't do for a day?
