(FNA)- Noted American thinker Noam Chomsky condemned the international community's deafening silence on Israel's inhumane blockade on the population in the Gaza Strip, describing it as shameful behavior.

Chomsky made his remarks on Monday after he signed a petition demanding an end to Gaza siege, which was launched by the popular committee against the siege, PIC reported.

Chomsky called for ending Israel's blockade on Gaza immediately and enabling the population to enjoy freedom and every opportunity they deserve in life.

He also said that no one has experienced suffering more than the Gaza population who live in the world’s largest open-air prison and are exposed to killing, terrorism and humiliation.

The American thinker added that the blockade on Gaza, which was created by Israel in order to humiliate its people, is considered one of the greatest crimes in the 21st century.
