Since the famine began, Yemen’s population shot up from 30 million to 39 million.
Here’s a little blast from the past:
Yemen crisis: 85,000 children ‘dead from malnutrition’ – BBC
85000 Children in Yemen May Have Died of Starvation – New York Times
85,000 children in Yemen have starved to death: Save the Children report – ABC News
Pictures of sick children and headlines like this became typical.
The media pulled this same famine hoax in Yemen to protect Iran’s Houthi terrorists
The population of Yemen actually rose 30%

The attempt to stop weapons from going to the Houthis failed, and the Iran-backed Islamic terrorist group armed up and began terrorizing shipping lanes.
But here’s the extraordinary thing about the aftermath of the Yemen famine hoax.

Not only weren’t there tens of thousands of kids who had starved to death, but Yemen had a massive population boom.
Earlier this year, the UN demanded $2.47 billion for its 2025 Yemen Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan. In February, the Houthis killed a WFP worker (an event that got far less publicity than the deaths of aid workers in Gaza), but in April, the WFP expressed outrage that the United States was finally, at least temporarily, pausing aid and would not be allocating over $100 million in funds to the enemy region at war with the United States.
After 9 years of non-stop famine (and billions in spending), 17 million people are facing acute hunger in Yemen. That’s up from 15.9 million people in 2019.
Since the famine began, Yemen’s population shot up from 30 million to 39 million.
It was all lies. It still is.
The same tactics used in Yemen, photos of sick kids who look like they’re starving, and false claims of famine no matter how much aid goes in, are being used in Gaza.
The same lie. The same hoax. For the same purpose. To aid Islamic terrorists.
Fool us once, shame on you. Fool us twice. What’s that?

The UN has become the largest and most vicious anti-Semitic organization on the globe. Our national media is complicit in spreading lies and innuendos about Israel and any who supports western civilization.

You can’t believe much of anything in the media or on web sites today.
Just wait till AI starts producing the news stories to further brain wash the world population. We are being set up for total mind control by those with the switch to the networks. The fake news stories can be produced to look so real you won’t know the difference between fake and real.
Down right scary.
abu taleb says
Were the Houthis, Saudi Arabia or other Arab countries who attacked the Houthis ever accused doing genocide during the “starvation”?
Oops, I forgot, they are not Jews, they are muslims, so they have the right to kill people, including their own muslim fellows. That is why Islam is the religion of Allah.

Actually, Saudi Arabia is the only muslim country that Leftists ever felt comfortable attacking. Not sure whether it was b’cos of Riyadh’s long alliance w/ DC. I remember the likes of Rand Paul & others attacking Saudi Arabia for this, while saying nothing about Iran
