"While Hamas leadership falsely accuses Israel of orchestrating a 'starvation campaign,' the videos show operatives boasting about their meals underground," Adraee said." Its important to clarify the food shown was not part of the humanitarian aid delivered to Gaza. Once again, the disconnect between Hamas and the suffering of Gazas civilians is laid bare. This is the same organization that feeds the world fabricated tales of starvation, all while indulging in the destruction it has inflicted upon its own people.
To the people of Gazathis is the reality, he added. These terrorists are not heroes. They are self-serving thieves, hoarding resources at your expense, hiding in tunnels out of fear of facing the consequences of their actions.
In the footage, Hamas operatives are seen proudly displaying their food supplies, which include fruit, rice, and meat. They address a person named Abu Khaled, saying: You missed out. One man remarks, I ate five bowls of rice todayas civilians above ground queue for hours just to receive a single plate of food.

Shocked to see this from our little latter-day Nelson Mandelas in Hamas!

(3,454 posts)Don't fall for it. There is a denialist industry working hard out there. It' shockingly disgusting.
Look at the framing - denial and accountability-shifting at its finest:
"This is the same organization that feeds the world fabricated tales of starvation, all while indulging in the destruction it has inflicted upon its own people.
Look at the timing. Just as pictures and videos of skeletal and dead/barely alive children, providing hard evidence of the starvation, are emerging and as over 100 aid agencies, 4 major press outlets, 27 Western countries etc have issued statements of condemnation against Israel.
And think about why we automatically assume that terrorists are not just vile but also incredibly, self-defeatingly STUPID!

Pre The October 7 Pogrom - Gaza is AmeriKKKa in 5 years of we don't bring our Jesus Freaks to heel.
They want a ChristoFascist government similar to Gaza before the pogrom.
Ask a Black American which street we'd prefer to walk down?
Neither. Arab Muslims hate me just as much as White Theocrats.

This country has been attacking me since I was 3 years old. Reagan might as well have held two bibles in in his hand when he gave his Welfare Queen speech in Philadelphia Mississippi in 1976.
White ChristoFascist AmeriKKKans are no different than Hamas. Their predecessors cut the baby from the womb of a Black Woman.

Mary Turners husband, Hayes Turner, had been lynched the day before. Hayes Turner was accused of being an accomplice in the killing of a notorious white farmer, Hampton Smith, who was well known for his abuse of Black farm workers. Mr. Smith would bail Black people accused of petty crimes out of jail and then require them to work off the fine at his farm. Sidney Johnson, a Black man working to pay a legal fee for rolling dice, confessed to killing Mr. Smith during a quarrel about being overworked. Police officers killed Mr. Johnson in a shootout. When news reached the white community, Mr. Turner and other Black farm workers who had previously been abused by Mr. Smith were targeted and accused of conspiracy.
Hamas cut off the breast of a woman at the rave while they were raping her.
How is that any different? They are the same. Hamas, Hutus, white Amerikkkan ChristoFascists.
They are all the same to me.

(653 posts)I suggested awhile back that Palestinians go live in the 300 miles of tunnels that are under Gaza . This was exactly what I was getting at. Instead, my post was removed because it was completely misunderstood. It all comes out in the wash anyway. I was correct all along. The Censors here were 100% wrong. AGAIN!

(10,065 posts)Ynetnews is the English-language online news website of Ynet, which is a major Israeli news and content platform and the digital arm of *Yedioth Ahronoth*, Israels most widely-read newspaper. Launched in 2005 in Tel Aviv, Ynetnews provides breaking news, in-depth reporting, and commentary focusing on Israel, the Middle East, and Jewish world affairs. It covers topics like politics, terrorism, Palestinian affairs, business, culture, and more. The content is largely original, created by an independent staff, though its part of the *Yedioth Ahronoth* media group, which also publishes magazines like *Laisha* and *Pnai Plus*. Ynet, the Hebrew-language parent site, started in 2000 and is Israels most popular internet portal. Ynetnews is known for its secular, center-left perspective by Israeli standards, often critical of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, though some X posts claim it leans either far-left or right-wing, reflecting polarized views on its bias.[](https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ynet)[](https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/ynetnews/)[](https://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0%2C7340%2CL-3028645%2C00.html)

Meanwhile, in the real world, we're subjected to lies from Israel every single day. I swear the gaslighting is giving some of us CPTSD. Don't believe your lying eyes!
It's a fake video, produced by sick people on behalf of a very sick state.
They were stupid to include the bananas but glad they did.

(19,428 posts)However, I can certainly think of at least one reason a person might instinctively not trust a Jewish newspaper despite it being rated as highly credible and factual by a source they otherwise find trustworthy
AloeVera
(3,454 posts)It's not ynet news itself - though I agree, they usually just carry Israel's dirty water- it's a rogue state that is willing to go to absurdly low depths to protect its man-made starvation operation in aid of ridding Gaza of its people and expelling them.
Fucking disgusting.
