According to a new report, the terrorist-backed group Hamas is seizing food supplies from Gazan civilians and selling them on the black market for extraordinary prices.
This from townhall.com.
The editor-in-chief of the Jerusalem Post Zvika Klein told a senior Israeli defense official that Hamas is exaggerating the country’s food shortage, saying that every family has enough food to survive. However, Klein pointed out that Hamas is using the supply to its advantage.
The defense official told Klein:
The food shortage and use of the word ‘hunger’ have been exaggerated.
He said the food Israel has shipped to Gaza:
[Has] immediately been taken by Hamas terrorists, who then sell some of the supplies for ten times more than what it’s worth.
The official reportedly told Klein:
[G]angs working for Hamas seize the food and aid supplies that are delivered by Israel and the United States at gunpoint.
Further:
[T]here are people in Gaza who are going hungry because they can’t afford to pay the price that Hamas is selling it for on the black market.
And still he stated:
There are those who are hungry since Hamas has taken all of the food and they don’t have enough money to pay Hamas on the black market.
The situation in Gaza is akin to hunger in New York, where homeless people suffer not from a lack of food but from a lack of money to purchase it … This condition reinforces [Hamas’] narrative, portraying hunger as a consequence of external forces and legitimizing their control.
Further:
[T]he terrorist group has shot down food drops from the U.S., Jordan, and the UAE to promote their propaganda that its citizens are starving.
On Thursday, The U.S. Regime announced an emergency pier will be built off of the coast of Gaza to deliver aid.
The pier, built by U.S. military members, will receive “large ships carrying food, water, medicine.”
Biden said:
I’m directing the U.S. military to lead an emergency mission to establish a temporary pier in the Mediterranean on the Gaza coast that can receive large ships carrying food, water, medicine, and temporary shelters.
No U.S. boots will be on the ground. This temporary pier would enable a massive increase in the amount of humanitarian assistance getting into Gaza every day. But Israel must also do its part.
Biden called on Israel to continue delivering aid to Gaza and:
[E]nsure humanitarian workers aren’t caught in the crossfire.
Unsurprisingly, The Regime said this is the “most efficient, cost-effective” option.
Final thoughts: Again, the communists/globalists seize upon a problem and proceed to “solve” it incorrectly which creates additional, profound problems.
This pier for Hamas is replacing a pier destroyed by Israel because it was being used to further the war effort against them. Also, the real problem is seen as one of food distribution. Supplies are getting into Gaza but they are not getting to the Gazans.
Does the Left not realize Hamas is the problem? Certainly, the queer Kenyan is behind this cluster f*ck.
