In April, Israel offered to make sure aid got to Gazans, but guess what happened? Hamas rejected the offer. It fits the Hamas narrative (and that of its supporters) to present Israel as monstrous when it is Hamas that is to blame for every bit of the suffering of Gazans. Hamas has been stealing aid all along. In early May, even Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas stated that “’gangs’ affiliated with the Hamas terrorist group have been looting humanitarian aid meant for civilians in the Gaza Strip.”
Now, to try to fool the world yet again, Hamas is attempting to appear as though it cares what happens to Gazans.
“Hamas-led groups execute four for looting aid trucks amid some Gaza dissent,” by Nidal Al-Mughrabi, Reuters, May 26, 2025:
CAIRO, May 26 (Reuters) – Hamas has executed four men for looting some of the aid trucks that have begun entering Gaza, sources familiar with the incident said on Monday, as a clan leader in southern Gaza issued a challenge to the militant group over guarding the convoys.
One source said the four were involved in an incident last week when six security officials were killed by an Israeli airstrike as they were working to prevent gang members from hijacking aid trucks.
“The four criminals, who were executed, were involved in the crimes of looting and causing the death of members of a force tasked with securing aid trucks,” one of the sources told Reuters.
Seven other suspects were being pursued, according to a statement issued by an umbrella group identifying itself as the “Palestinian Resistance”.
Humanitarian assistance began trickling into Gaza last week after Israel yielded to international pressure and lifted a blockade it imposed in early March that has left half a million people facing starvation, according to a global hunger monitor.
Aid groups have said that deliveries have been hampered by looting, but they have blamed Israel for creating a situation in which hundreds of thousands of people have been driven to desperation by the blockade.
Israel has accused Hamas of stealing aid, which the group denies, and the issue of control over the aid trucks has been hotly disputed.…

It’s wrong to use the word executed in obvious cases of murder. The correct word is murdered.
*What does being executed mean?*
to kill someone as a legal punishment: He was executed for murder.
…

The ones murdered by hamas *because they were looting* are victims of evil hypocrisy.
hamas has looted the aid since the aid began to be sent in. Now they murder several for the “crime” of looting.
And, of course, they blame Israel.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
I’m guessing that those four were executed b’cos they were not members of Hamas but were still looting those trucks? Only Hamas is allowed to loot them
somehistory says
Either that, or they want people to believe they are against looting the aid. More lies.
Blougeoisie says
The lack of response by the tentifada shows that Palestinian civilian lives don’t matter.
Resistance BAMN unless your government is hamas, huh?
abu taleb says
Probably they are killed because they are looting from Hamas who loots from its people.
Rufolino says
If this is true, Hamas should execute its own leaders for looting to the tune of millions to fund their personal lifestyle, with luxurious homes abroad (& designer handbags for their women).
WPM says
Hamas was angry they did not get their cut for the loot. That is my opinion like a mob wars thieves battle thieves for good old fashion Mohamad raiding parties like they been doing for over 1200 years .Hamas could not careless if the people there starve ,just put the blame on “the Jews” and others who prove the aid.

Want to hear someone scream! Steal from a thief.
WPM says
Jihadist always scream the loudest whether about calling other people thieves ,or other people racist they have the biggest “projection gland ” attached to their vocal cords and Islamic programed brains .Forever unable to have self reflection ,or empathy for non -Moslem human beings. Allah told them they are the very center of the universe though they created very little beside violence ,mayhem ,and oppressions slave like longing for whore heaven when they die over the last 1200 years .If the devil had to invent a modern religion that attracted weak minded violent impulsive cave men who only run on violence ,sex ,envy ,and the commenting the seven deadly sins as sacraments he could do no better then Islam.
