We have appended an Editors’ Note to a story about Mohammed Zakaria al-Mutawaq, a child in Gaza who was diagnosed with severe malnutrition. After publication, The Times learned that he also had pre-existing health problems. Read more below and at: https://t.co/SoNJ6S3PLh pic.twitter.com/8PzOVxeK3k

The New York Times claims Gaza is on the “brink of famine”—while reporting on booming shawarma shops and dessert sales. Confused? So are we.
The real story? Hamas hoards and sells aid back to Gazans at extortionate prices, but the media blames Israel instead. pic.twitter.com/jT5UKTiQ4L

The New York Times has ‘amended’ its Gaza starvation story.
The fact that every major media outlet promoted this lie tells us that there is something very wrong with the narrative that Israel is “purposely starving Gazans.”

You’d almost get the idea that the leftist establishment wants the world to hate Israel. Oh, surely not!

New York Slimes. Mark Levin is correct in calling them that title.
somehistory says
Glenn Beck spoke about this and said that a healthy child was clipped from the family pic; and also that the ill child had been taken out of Gaza to be treated for his illness.
Too many people saw the pic and believed the lies told. Too few would see the *correction* and some would not believe it if they saw it.
If there had been any Truth in the story that kids are dying of starvation, wouldn’t the parents of said children also be starving? Or do the parents eat while their children *starve* so pics can be taken and lies told?
Walter Sieruk says
Those Muslim terrorists of Hamas are so such thieves and despicably callus that that steal aid send peaceful people of Gaza and use in an different ways for the murderous jihad against the State of Israel and the Jewish people.
As an Israel government official had explained “They, Hamas, steal the aid, they resell the aid, they use the money to rearm, then they to attack again …. Aid that goes Hamas is not humanitarian ….”it’s “Enabling the enemy to resupply itself so that can regroup and reattack us..” [1]
Just thinking about this the Gazan people wouldn’t really need al that aid if Hamas hadn’t started this war on October 7,th 2023.

Those thieving Muslim terrorists of Hamas with their stealing the food aid meant for the civilians of Gaza, who also happen to be Muslims, this further exposes the cruel selfish unconscionable wickedness of the Hamas savages
Then Hamas official spoken have the lying gall to say to the nations of the world “Look, those terrible Israelis are deliberately starving the civilian population of Gaza.”
Walter Sieruk says
Those Muslim terrorists of Hamas are stealing the aid sent to the people of Gaza so that the jihadists of Hamas can put their other resources into the jihad in that vicious Islamic quest the destroy the State of Israel murder all the Jewish people of Israel and also of other nations
Those Hamas jihadists in their theft of that aid sent to the people of Gaza are engaging in the Islamic doctrine of “Muruna” which is the dogma of Islam that teaches committing evil for the greater good is a noble part of the jihad for Islam.
This is, in essence, the same type of “philosophy” that the communists had gone by in the twentieth century. That it’s a “good thing “ to commit many evils to obtain a “worker’s paradise.” Likewise, during World War II even the Nazis had this line of thinking.” To express, as in to illustrate this idea, even more, is by using a twenty-first century movie. Near the end of this movie, just before the final defeat of the super-arch –villain General Zod , that super villain said “No matter how brutal and deadly I was I did it for the greater good.” That is the common mindset of many villains including those of Hamas.
Walter Sieruk says
Some very decent but naïve Westerners who don’t understand the despicable loathsome character of the jihadists of Hamas, when those people of the West discover that the terrorists of Hamas are stealing the humanitarian aid sent to the noncombatant civilians of Gaza and using it only for themselves.
Those same Westerners would be shocked and then ask “How can those Muslim terrorist of Hamas being Muslim do such a terrible unconscionable as that, to deprive other Muslim, who are not violent, of the aid they so desperately need ?”
The answer to that question is provided in the Bible, which reveals that there are some men who a very callous cruel and heartless because they have had “their conscience seared with a hot iron.” First Timothy 4:2. [K.J.V.]
For those Muslim terrorists of Hamas that “hot iron” is Islam.

It is hard to know what is going on and who’s shooting who. But I just do not believe this starving children. They could be food stressed, but I don’t see how the mothers look like hulk hogan and the child is a Skelton.
The whole world is buying it, even Trump says it looks like it’s true. Israel’s support is fading very quickly, especially w young people.
This was the trap the Iranians and Islamists made.
Troybeam says
Gaza: supports Hamas be cause it is Hamas. Citizens of Gaza supports the tunnels, weapons depots in the Mosques, offer themselves as shields, why would anyone offer themselves as shields.
It’s simple: JIHAD service. Reliance of the Traveller: Islamic Sacred Law: sharia law.
Chapter o9.0 title JIHAD, states all Muslims must perform jihad. If not a fighter then jihad can be done in other ways and means. Support the fighter: food, money, shelter, whatever that fighter needs.
Look it up, its always been there.

Assuming the photos of those debilitated children are likely the “starving children” DJT belives he’s seen, has no one on his team brought that to his attention?
Of course, he actually could be sending his two man team to debunk that specific Gaza fraud.
