A former US Army Special Forces officer, who resigned from his role at the controversial Israeli and US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) last month, has said that an emaciated child was shot dead by Israeli forces ...
Amir walked 12km to receive a meagre allotment of aid, only to be fatally shot, Anthony Aguilar says.

TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) " Fighting "human animals." Making Gaza a "slaughterhouse." "Erasing the Gaza Strip from the face of the earth."
Such inflammatory rhetoric is a key component of South Africa's case accusing Israel of genocide at the U.N. world court, a charge that Israel denies. South Africa says the language -- in comments by Israeli leaders, soldiers and entertainers about Palestinians in Gaza since Hamas' Oct. 7 attack sparked war -- is proof of Israel's intent to commit genocide.

You're subhuman if you look at that and think it's ok. Doesn't matter the justification.
You are subhuman s*&^ if you think that is ok.

It's hilarious how quickly the pro-Hamasers willingly but into terrorists propaganda. As Bellringer said, the other kid in the photo is well-fed. Most of the propaganda photos show a kid, with no parents in the picture. You know why? Because the parents aren't starving.
These kids have other illnesses. Mostly genetic. You know why? Because Palestinians have one of the highest rates of cousin-marriage in the world, with all the genetic joys that come along with that for their offspring. But it's the Jews fault that Palestinians have family trees that don't have branches.
But I'm the eugenecist?

Zionism is colonialism.
All colonialism is rooted in eugenics.
Racial conceptions of Jewish identity in Zionism
In the late 19th century, amid attempts to apply science to notions of race, some of the founders of Zionism (such as Max Nordau) sought to reformulate conceptions of Jewishness in terms of racial identity and the "race science" of the time. They believed that this concept would allow them to build a new framework for collective Jewish identity,[1] and thought that biology might provide "proof" for the "ethnonational myth of common descent" from the biblical land of Israel.[2][3] Countering antisemitic claims that Jews were both aliens and a racially inferior people who needed to be segregated or expelled, these Zionists drew on and appropriated elements from various race theories,[4][5][a] to argue that only a Jewish national home could enable the physical regeneration of the Jewish people and a renaissance of pride in their ancient cultural traditions

Muslims are subhuman so it's okay to starve their children to death.

Lol! I said nothing of the kind. But many of the photos show kids suffering from non-dietary illnesses. I've never said that makes them subhuman. Although I'm sure some Palestinians might have those feelings based on the company they keep.
From what is currently known there are no functioning hospitals.

Someone should tell this guy:
"according to the director of Gaza's Al-Shifa Hospital."

You can find references to other Gaza hospitals by doing an Internet search and sorting news articles by recent. You might have to use a non-Hamas search engine to find those results, so you might be out of luck there.
It's what you should expect when you justify/excuse/deflect the pain, suffering and death of children.

Sure! Wait till you find out how the German kids fared under our auspices during and after the war their parents started.
Over 70 Percent of Palestinians Support Hamas's October 7 Terror Attack

I am having a discussion. That people who justify/deflect/excuse the suffering and death of children are bottom feeding s*&^bags. I feel like I've been quite clear on that fact.

Sure, I like unicorns and fairy dust too.
Unfortunately, in the real world civilians suffer in the wars their leaders start, particularly when they support those leaders and don't want the war to end and their leaders rely on civilians as shields and as a direct military strategy.
Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar believes Palestinian deaths are necessary sacrificesSurely you meant that's what Hamas' Oligarch Leaders in Qatar that are still left want.

Then someone should tell the Palestinians they don't want it.
Over 70 Percent of Palestinians Support Hamas's October 7 Terror AttackIT doesn't matter who started it at this point.

OK, does it matter that apparently the participants don't want to end it? At least not enough to lay down their arms?
That poll is from March 21, 2024. I bet now Hamas is even more underwater there than Trump is here.

You are correct sir!
For the fifth time since October 7, we asked respondents from the West Bank and the Gaza Strip what they thought of Hamas' decision to launch the October 7 attack, whether it was correct or incorrect: 50%, compared to 54% seven months ago, in September 2024, and 71% 14 months ago, in March 2024, said it was the right decision. The decrease in this percentage came from the West Bank and Gaza Strip, where it stands today at 59% in the West Bank, a decrease of 5 percentage points, and 38% in the Gaza Strip, compared to 39% seven months ago.At this rate, we might have peace in six or seven years.

Agreed! Let me know when you see one. Based on facts, and not terrorist and NYT lies about one inexplicably starving kid in a family of weightlifters.
So... about half the Palestinian people don't now support Hamas?
Good to know.

Yeah, better than Trump's numbers here. And he runs all three branches of our government.
No, but believing their views are popular will help an awful person maintain their illusion that they're not a reprehensible POS.

Sometimes a group of people decide to do horrible things and celebrate in the streets when it happens:
Palestinians In Gaza And The West Bank Celebrate On October 7, Hand Out Sweets, Fire Guns In The Air, Following Hamas's Invasion And Massacre Of Israeli CiviliansAnd then horrible things befall those people as the wrath of Allah pays them a visit in the form of a smitten Gaza.
www.memri.org
The Palestinians want all the fun stuff that goes will attacking Jews, like rape and murder. But they don't want any of the negatives. And I'm the reprehensible POS, not the terrorist supporters who hide behind the children.
Here, watch these Palestinian children eat dirt:

You'll probably swallow that hammy acting hook, line, and sinker as well. Because it tells you the story you want to hear.
You've overplayed Oct 7, dumbs*^%. So have the Israelis.
#74 | Posted by jpw
I wonder if you'd be able to go a month without writing an ad hominem attack. My money is on no.
Anyhow, back to your point about "overplaying" October 7th, is Hamas no longer in control? If Israel left today, would Hamas be back in a year or two to pull similar shenanigans?
You think this is about revenge, and I'm sure it is to some Israelis. I think I see it as it is intended by those conducting the campaign, regime change. And it looks like the Arab nations have come on board:
Arab States Call on Hamas to Disarm
drudge.com
I'd say ten more years of this at the most, and then Hamas will no longer be calling the shots, Israel can take Gaza as reparations, and Trump Towers Gaza can open six months later. But I've been accused of being an optimist. So lets say thirty more years, on the outside.
"imaginary starving children."

There is substantial and credible evidence from multiple authoritative sources that children in Gaza are indeed suffering from severe malnutrition and starvation in 2025, and these children are not imaginary.
- The World Health Organization (WHO) reports a sharp increase in malnutrition-related deaths in Gaza in July 2025, including 24 children under five who died showing clear signs of severe wasting upon arrival at health facilities. Nearly one in five children under five in Gaza City is acutely malnourished, with many admitted for treatment of severe acute malnutrition. Hospitals and specialized treatment centers are overwhelmed, supply shortages are critical, and the health system is near collapse due to ongoing conflict and blockades[1].
- UN-backed food security groups report that famine thresholds have been met across Gaza, with thousands of children malnourished and hunger-related deaths rising. More than 20,000 children sought treatment for acute malnutrition between April and July 2025, thousands classified as severely malnourished. Gaza hospitals are noting a rise in hunger-related child deaths, with at least 16 children under five reported dead from hunger-related causes since mid-July[2][3].
- The UN World Food Programme and other UN agencies warn that Gaza is on the brink of famine, with more than 500,000 people enduring famine-like conditions and malnutrition levels quadrupling among children under five in Gaza City. The crisis is fueled by conflict, infrastructure collapse, and severe humanitarian aid restrictions[3][4].
- UNICEF and other humanitarian groups also confirm the grim reality of widespread starvation and malnutrition among children in Gaza, describing children as "starving to death" and facing a rapidly worsening nutrition crisis that is greater than ever since the conflict began[6][7][8].
These reports come from independent international health and humanitarian organizations closely monitoring Gaza's situation. They document measurable evidence such as hospital admissions, malnutrition screenings, death tolls with clear physical signs of starvation, and famine-level food insecurity indicators. This overwhelmingly confirms that the starving children in Gaza are real and that the humanitarian crisis is severe and ongoing.
There is no credible reason or evidence to believe that the starvation and malnutrition among children in Gaza are fabricated or imaginary. They are a documented and tragic consequence of the conflict, blockade, and restricted humanitarian access in the region.
