An Israeli government spokesperson claimed yesterday that Hamas has “enough food to spark an obesity epidemic” after the occupation state decided on Sunday to suspend the entry of humanitarian aid into the besieged and devastated Gaza Strip.
I’m not one to body-shame but the audacity of that fat fuck to say this is beyond the pale.
Any other wild takes? Is Hamas hiding the Fountain of Youth? Do they coordinate Iranian weapons shipments with the Mothman?
Okay, and? I fail to see the part where another country’s welfare is your problem, Israel.
Also, obesity is no justification for dropping bombs on their food reserves. Otherwise every Walmart in the US would be a bombed out crater.I fail to see the part where another country’s welfare is your problem, Israel.
It’s their problem because its occupied territory. Under the Geneva Conventions, what they’re doing should have invoked an international intervention years ago. Israel has been able to dictate what moves into and out of Gaza for over a decade and explicitly calculated calories entering the region as a means of gradually starving out the population.
Wikileaks has published diplomatic cables that showed Israel told U.S. officials in 2008 it would keep Gaza’s economy “on the brink of collapse” while avoiding a humanitarian crisis. To circumvent the blockade, Palestinians have brought in tonnes of goods through smuggling tunnels dug under Gaza’s border with Egypt.
This was, incidentally, one of the provocations of the Oct 7th attacks. Gazans were starving. They broke out across the militarized border to raid for food and other basic living supplies.

It’s a lie…
They do not have food because even under Biden aid was cut off for bullshit reasons.
Even after everyone found out that what Bibi said about UNRWA was bullshit propaganda, Biden and the majority of both parties just ignored it and never reinstated aid.
Like, you’re operating under the assumption that everyone isnt just fucking lying about shit because no one holds them accountable.
Hell, it’s almost a certainty at least one person will get mad I pointed Biden and Dems are fucking up too
But if both groups of voters refuse to hold their own accountable, the result is no politicians is ever held accountable again.
I’d like to see that guy last more than 2 hours without food. Unbelievable.
dudes chin could end global starvation
That’s a great headline
I guess Israel slaughtered enough innocent Palestinians that it could be true.
What’s funny is cheap bad sources of food fuel obesity. That’s why America is so fat. All the cheap food is terrible for you and subsidized by the government, so that you’ll need diabetes medication for your entire life enriching the health insurance and big pharma companies.
Sorry, slightly off topic, and obligatory fuck Israel.

Israel both blocks the trucks from collection after letting them in, and lies about the amount they enter. But also your link is broken mr 2 hour old Hasbara account.
KEREM SHALOM CROSSING, ISRAEL-GAZA BORDER — More than a dozen empty flatbed trucks from Gaza rumble through the opening in the massive concrete wall that marks the border here. They park on the Israeli side and forklift drivers jump into action, loading huge sacks of flour, along with boxes of watermelons, mangoes, tomatoes and onions. Within 30 minutes, the trucks turn around and drive the short distance back into Gaza.
This scene plays out multiple times daily at Kerem Shalom, now the main artery supplying Gaza with food and medicine. All this activity raises hope that needed aid will reach the more than 2 million Palestinians trapped inside Gaza.
But here’s the catch: Much of this humanitarian aid is piling up on the Gaza side of the border instead of traveling the last few miles to those suffering in the 10th month of the war between Israel and Hamas

Have you got any reputable sources which is not the people committing genocide? What’s next citing the Nazis about the Holocaust not being real?

The credible organisation ‘The UN’
Israel and U.N. disagree over Gaza aid figures
While Israel says the number of trucks entering Gaza has risen sharply in recent days, the U.N. has given much lower figures, and says it is still far less than the amount required to meet humanitarian needs.
While Israel said 419 trucks entered the Gaza Strip on Monday, the main U.N. agency there, UNRWA, said only 223 trucks had come in on that day.
Do you know what the sentence ‘wir haben er nicht gewust’ means? The Nazis were not nearly as meticulous in their documentation as your fantasy leads you to believe. Israel has documented the Gaza genocide far far better than the Nazis have.

Explain why Israel is blocking aid trucks without sounding like a Nazi 3.2.1 go.
Gaza certainly doesn’t have enough food to even survive, but Hamas very well could’ve hoarded a lot of food
