  1. Where's the citation that picture is propaganda? What the trump quote does show is that he's fully aware of the starvation issue in Gaza. You think he's getting false "Hamas Propaganda" intel in the Oval Office. No. He and the Israelis are well aware of the reality on the ground in Gaza. The "That's just Hamas propaganda" line is nothing more than Israeli propaganda. The kind they've been caught pedaling time and time again.
  2. No, it's the law. Israel's argument is that the law doesn't apply to them.
  3. Wrong. Trump rejected that explanation on Monday, telling reporters during a visit to Scotland that the United States would increase its efforts to get food into the territory. “That’s real starvation,” he said. “I see it, and you can’t fake that.”
  4. 1) Yes, they are. 2) It's also against international law to limit food and aid to an occupied population, which they are openly doing.
  5. First, that number is incorrect. Second, starvation isn't instant. It takes time and the numbers are rapidly increasing, which fits the timeline of the the 3 month blockade, followed by extremely limited aid allowed in. While thousands haven't died yet, tens of thousands have been treated for acute malnutrition, including 20,000 children since April. https://news.un.org/en/story/2025/07/1165517 In 5 years, you'll convince yourself you didn't know what was happening, just like the Nazi sympathizer you are.
  6. They've offered to release the hostages repeatedly in exchange for a ceasefire and Israel refuses the deal. Also, Hamas has released a huge portion of the hostages. Most non-military hostages have been released by now. Israel has also killed many of the hostages during their bombing campaigns. It's estimated that there are about 25 hostages left alive in Gaza. What do you have to say about Palestinian hostages held by Israel? Israel arrests hundreds of Palestinian *children* each year without formal charges and holds them indefinitely. On top of that, there are thousands of Palestinians held prisoner indefinitely without formally being charged and no due process. That's been happening for decades. That was why Hamas took hostages in the first place - it was a strategic effort to return 1,000s of Palestinian prisoners being held illegally. This was never about the hostages. They could have had every living hostage back a year ago if it was. The purpose is to level Gaza so that the Palestinians can't return and then seize the land for Israel. And it's not a secret. Israel's politicians and generals talk openly about this in Hebrew to their domestic audience.
  7. And the world also says it's not okay to starve and kill civilians because of their government's actions. That's international law.
  8. Not Hamas specifically, but the Palestinian people overall. Illegal West Bank settlements erode faith in the peace process for all Palestinians, not just the ones who live in the West Bank.
  9. You're too stupid to even understand the point.
  10. Iran deems the United States to be a terrorist organization. Does that mean they have the right to kill civilians with impunity?
  11. There was 1 election almost 20 years ago where Hamas won 43% of the vote. Over half the population of Gaza wasn't even alive when that election happened. Only a very, very small percentage of living Gazans have ever voted for Hamas. The context of that election is also important. It happened after 20 years of Israel undermining and backing out of the peace agreements set forth in the Oslo accords. The PA tried the peace path in good faith and Israel undermined their legitimacy among Palestinians by continuing to settle the West Bank after agreeing not to (in addition to funding Hamas the entire time). And despite all that, a majority of Palestinians still voted no to Hamas.
  12. I'm sorry, but do you think the Clinton's are actively practicing law??? lmao
  13. You have piss poor reading comprehension. Obviously, Hamas isn't governing Gaza ethically and helping people find food and shelter. They are terrorists! That is terrorist behavior. Israel is also doing that, despite international law making it very clear they have the obligation, as the occupying power, to provide for those people. If Israel doesn't want to be labelled a terror state, they should stop acting like one. Is Hamas stealing aid? Probably some! But Trump's government looked into it and found no evidence of widespread theft. What we DO know for a 100% fact is that Israel is only allowing a small fraction of aid trucks into the strip each day, causing aid to be left to rot as shown in the video. Israel itself reports this as true in their official reports. Israel prevented all aid from entering Gaza for 3 months. The months since lifting the total blockade, they've only let in a tiny amount of aid. They use out of context numbers to fool people like you into thinking they're providing enough aid. For example, Israel claimed it delivered over 5 million meals over the course of a week. That sounds like a lot of food. It's not. It averages out to about a half meal per day per person - assuming all the food made it to the destination, which we know that it's not. Following 3 months of total blockade, this is not enough to prevent famine.
  14. Damn, it's almost like Hamas is a terrorist organization or something. This might sound crazy to you, but if Israel doesn't want to be labelled a terror organization like Hamas, they have to stop behaving like Hamas. It's called *having moral standards.*
  15. Your first sentence perfectly describes the IDF, as reported by our own government and intelligence agencies, including the Trump administration. The aid is not making it into the strip. Israel can say it "shipped" however much it wants, but they know they're only letting a fraction of it into Gaza. This is well documented by a variety of independent observers on the border, but you plug your ears because you won't believe anything that goes against your ideological priors.
  16. You are the most gullible man alive.
  17. Blatant propaganda. This happens because Israel severely limits the amount of trucks that are allowed to enter the strip, purposefully limiting the amount of aid that actually makes it into Gaza. Half their cabinet gets on TV and says they shouldn't be allowing any aid into Gaza at all. The other half says they should, but only the bare minimum to avoid the charge of genocide and famine. That is the official Israeli policy. https://www.nbcnews.com/world/middle-east/gaza-food-starvation-aid-distribution-israel-rcna221225 Aid agencies say they would like to deliver aid, but that Israel has riddled the process with delays and denials, changing schedules and routes, sometimes at the last minute, making it difficult or impossible to safely retrieve the aid for distribution. Half of the 138 requests the World Food Programme made in the last week to collect aid from holding sites were denied, the agency said Friday. Even after being approved to load the aid, the WFP said, “convoys are typically delayed” and take as much as 46 hours before receiving the final approval to travel along the strip. Israel has long maintained that the restrictions are in place to prevent Hamas from stealing the food, though an internal U.S. government analysis [conducted by Trump administration] found no evidence of systematic theft of the supplies by Hamas over the past 20 months. Additionally, OCHA, the UN's humanitarian agency, has likewise not seen signs of Hamas diverting aid, and WFP has also previously told NBC News they have not seen evidence of aid diversion. WFP on Friday said it had 300 trucks of aid waiting to be distributed inside Gaza, and UNRWA, the U.N.’s humanitarian agency for Palestinians, said it had about 6,000 aid trucks in Jordan and Egypt also waiting to be approved.
  18. Lol talk about mental gymnastics. The DOJ meeting with Maxwell is like piece of evidence 100 of why Trump is likely guilty. "Mental Gymnastics" from the guy who is feigning skepticism about Trump's connections to a guy he was good friends with for decades, has tons of pictures with, is on record calling him a good friend and alluding to the crimes, etc...and is now actively preventing the release of the case files. Pathetic! Do you have any dignity?
  19. You guys! Your boy is protecting another pedophile and you do everything you can to try to deny it when the truth is obvious.
  20. They're experts at this point. Lots of practice!
  21. Still waiting for those Epstein files? Coming any day now, I'm sure!
  22. The FBI arrested him and then Trump stepped in when he found out who got picked up in the sting. I'd tell you to stop being dense, but I don't think you're capable.
  23. No, the story is pretty straight forward. An Israeli Cyber-Security expert was arrested in a Child Porn scheme. The Trump admin got him released on behalf of Israel. Not the first time this has happened, either. This is exactly what happened with Epstein in Florida.
