Hamas Feasts While Gaza Starves?

The world’s turned upside down again. Headlines scream that Israel is starving Gaza’s civilians. The UN frets, activists rage, and the usual suspects in the media bang the drum of outrage. But here’s what they won’t tell you: it’s Hamas that’s doing the starving.

Yep, the same terrorist group that's been running Gaza into the ground for years is now blocking food aid from reaching civilians. They hijack convoys, reroute supplies to their own fighters, and punish anyone who dares speak out. But wait—there’s more. While Gazan families scavenge for scraps, Hamas posts videos of its leaders sitting down to feast. Not just surviving—feasting. As HonestReporting's latest short video below shows, the contrast is jaw-dropping.

Meanwhile, Israel—blamed for it all—is still sending in aid, still opening crossings, still trying to coordinate distribution… only for Hamas to intercept and weaponise humanitarian relief. And what does the international community do? Point fingers at the only country actually doing something to help.

Even worse is the media’s role in all of this. Western outlets had access to the same footage, the same facts, the same damning evidence—but instead of exposing Hamas, they parroted its propaganda. They ran with the "Israel-starves-Gaza" narrative while deliberately ignoring—or burying—the images of Hamas officials boasting about their well-stocked kitchens. It’s not just bias, it’s complicity.

Let’s call this what it is: a propaganda farce. Hamas is crying “starvation” while hoarding food and letting their people suffer for PR. And the world, predictably, laps it up.
