A school in the UK has asked their staff and students to participate in a fast for Gaza. Over half of the students at the school are eligible for free school lunches, meaning that food security at home is likely not good. So, to make this clear, a school is asking children as young as 11, who very possibly get most of their nutrition from school, to not eat anything. The Free Palestine movement is causing people to lose track of right and wrong in their day-to-day lives, yet these actions won’t help Palestinians at all. The war isn't going to end because a child in the UK goes hungry. What will end the war is the return of the hostages. So, why don't we advocate for that instead of these meaningless gestures?
