Eight months of war have reduced nine-year-old Yunis Jumaa to skin and bone.
Stretched out, semi-unconscious on a hospital bed in Khan Younis in southern Gaza, his twisted frame is hard to look at.
His arms and legs like matchsticks, his knee joints bulging, his chest heaves with the skin stretched tight over his rib cage.
“My son was in excellent health before, he was normal,” says his mother Ghanima Jumaa.
“But when he developed this malnutrition and dehydration, he became as you see him now.”
Source? Hamas posted the video themselves. How Hamas is more to blame than Israel. Well prior to Oct7 water was there, there was food and most importantly people were alive, on both sides. Now, one can twist the logic and say yea but Israel oppresses, two state solution, apartheid, etc. But all that is irrelevant as first blood was drawn by Hamas. Resulting deaths are a response to that. You can call it exaggerated response or brutal or whatever. But it’s still a response. If Hamas really cared about civilians they wouldn’t hide behind them, all of the donation money wouldn’t go to Qatar or first aid trucks robbed. There’s no act in this world that justifies raping innocents and torturing kids on camera for whole world to see and then slashing their throat. No matter how how much mental gymnastics is involved or how much claim there’s someone else started it first.
This video of them using the water pipes comes from here. See the same clip at 4 minutes in. The pipes were from Israeli settlements. The Telegraph just reused the footage and threw in some vague stuff about the EU, without actually saying where the pipes came from.
Unless you have something showing that the pipes were to supply water to Gaza? Rather than to steal it.
You should read that article I posted last time. It was already pretty bad. And then as I said Israel blew up the desalination plants. How does this make it more Hamas than Israel?
History did not start on October 7th. “First blood” lol you must be joking. Ever heard of the Nakba?
From this point on you’re just repeating talking points. No need to go into all this when we’re talking about the clear factual reality of why this poor child and many like him have severe malnutrition.
