The Israeli PM's refusal to heed US demands on food aid for Gaza is morally indefensible, hurting the president - and opening the door to Donald Trump.

The Israel i PM's refusal to heed US demands on food aid for Gaza is morally indefensible, hurting the president - and opening the door to Donald Trump. The pictures out of Gaza get more harrowing with each passing day. After months of witnessing civilians grieving for loved ones killed by bombs, now we see children desperate to eat - victims of what the aid agencies and experts are united in calling an imminent 'man-made' famine.

What matters most about these images is their depiction of a continuing horror inflicted on the people of Gaza. But they also reveal something that could have lasting implications for Israelis and Palestinians, for Americans and for the entire world
