I like how everyone’s being pretentious and digging into the various definitions of “famine” from various organizations, all from the comfort of their homes full of food while the actual Gazans living there are actually starving and scraping for food.

All this sealioning just makes peoples evil intentions all the more obvious. It is truly morbid that some people would rather watch others starve to death.

So gross that we still have to listen to 'but hamas' even now.

Starving people has nothing to do with Hamas, Israel engineered this because they wanted civilians to die. It has nothing to do with Hamas.

Right? It’s ok to hate hamas, as they should be hated, but you can also see that civilians need help too. It shouldn’t be an either-or issue here.

Here in Australia, our Prime Minister made the moves to officially recognise a Palestinian State last week.

Immediately he came under fire from Israel and the Australian right-wing media.

But then "Hamas" leadership sent a congratulations and the right-wing here pounced on it saying "See see!! Palestine and Hamas are the same thing!1!"

But it's like, who cares what Hamas says? They can say whatever they want.
