My Fellow Palestinians: Stop Blaming the Jews—Hamas Is Starving Our Brothers and Sisters in Gaza

Opinion (msn.com)  "How can we understand the terrible, self-imposed deprivation now gripping the people of Gaza? The heart-wrenching stampede that unfolded in Gaza last Thursday casts a stark light on the brutal reality of life under Hamas's rule. It is a somber reminder of the urgent need to address the suffering of Gaza's people, but it also serves as a crucial moment to clarify the accountability for Gaza's plight.

"The chaos and desperation that led to this tragedy are direct outcomes of Hamas's governance, which prioritizes violence and killing Jews over the welfare of its population. The stampede, occurring during an aid distribution, tragically underscores the severe humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Driven by sheer desperation, people found themselves in a deadly crush, a situation that should never occur.

"To pave the way for peace and stability for my brothers and sisters in Gaza, it is essential to acknowledge the root causes of their suffering. Hamas's diversion of resources, suppression of dissent, and neglect of civilian needs must end." . . .

Hamas will then use the money from the black market to restore their weapons and tunnels. TD

 Report: Hamas Starves Palestinians by Stealing Food, Selling on Black Market (breitbart.com)    "The Hamas terrorist organization is starving Palestinians in Gaza by stealing food that arrives in humanitarian aid shipments and then selling it on the black market, according to Zvika Klein, editor of the Jerusalem Post.

"Those who cannot afford to pay the exorbitant prices are going hungry, he said — not for lack of aid deliveries, but because Hamas seizes the aid on entry and uses it to enrich itself and fund its ongoing war against Israel.

"Klein’s account of the situation in Gaza corroborates anecdotal information from social media videos, showing people selling food supplies delivered through international humanitarian aid in marketplaces within Gaza." . . .

Former Israeli PM Bennett Refutes Biden On Aid: Problem Is Hamas Steals The Food - I24NEWS   "Former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett refuted U.S. President Joe Biden's criticism on humanitarian crisis in Gaza, when asked about the State of the Union Address by NBC’s Meet the Press.

" 'I don't agree,” Bennet responded to a question about Biden's remarks. “The problem is not the lack of food in Gaza, but the fact that Hamas steals the food that comes in.”

"Hamas then “sells it on the black market at 10 times the normal price, and so the food doesn't reach the needy who can't afford to buy it," Bennett asserted during the interview with NBC's "Meet the Press" program.

"We don't use this kind of thing as a bargaining chip. You have to understand that the problem is that Hamas is preventing humanitarian aid from reaching its destination,” he explained." . . .
