Famine expert?
"Yup. They look pretty hungry. Trust me, I'm an expert!"

And no one complains about Hamas stealing the food, stockpiling it and selling it to the Palestinians at 10x the price when they should get it for free.

How horrible that Hamas cares so little for Gazans and that Gazans are so unwilling to reject Hamas.

Africa Black Children Famine Starvation Death Hunger No Ship Food Truck Air Drops Hospitals Ambulance Electricity Humanitarian Aid In 2023 an estimated 6.3 million children under five died, 2.9 million of them in the WHO African Region. This is equivalent to five children under 5 years of age dying every minute. Two thirds of these deaths can be attributed to preventable causes. A third of all these deaths are in the neonatal period. 0:49

Dream come true for Netanyahu and friends.

Can somebody do something??? Those are innocent children. This is worse than what happened to the Jews in Germany during WWII.
In those days, you were the ones who were yearning for help but today why are you doing the same thing to these innocent children ? Have you forgotten? Do you have a heart?

Yeah they probably shouldn't have attacked Israel on October 7th. Israel took that personally.
