Horrors! The latest atrocity in Gaza, reports Al Jazeera, is a wave of “luxurious” cafes and restaurants that have sprung up, “revealing a new genocidal reality.”
That’s right: Israel-haters have yet another new definition of “genocide,” wherein “fancy” restaurants “built with expensive materials, carefully painted, furnished with tables, sofas, and elegant chairs, with glass facades and shining lights,” giving off a “luxury feel” are fresh proof of the “genocidal abnormality” that Israel has inflicted on the people of Gaza.
It’s genocidal, you see, because not everyone in Gaza can afford to go there: “The expensive new establishments reflect the deeply unjust social order that has emerged in Gaza.”
Has emerged, or was there all along?
The Gaza foodie scene — amply documented on many Instagram feeds — is supported by the local elite, many of whom “engaged in illicit activities like smuggling, looting, and hoarding during acute shortages.”
Huh. Sounds like vindication of those Israeli claims that Hamas was routinely stealing aid, causing shortages and intensifying the suffering of the average Gazan, while also (again) disproving the noise about “famine.”
Even the Gaza Health Ministry’s (i.e., Hamas’) fatality statistics never came remotely close to “genocide” levels; a World Health Organization polio-vaccination campaign in Gaza in early 2025 inoculated 603,000 children under age 10, which is more kids than lived in the Gaza Strip before the war started.
Yes, the war was a nightmare for average Gazans, but the situation on the ground has always been far more complex than shrieking protesters, self-righteous politicians and smirking propagandists pretend.

It has to luxurious. Those 72 virgins would not put up with anything less!
This one for female students seems a bit shabby.
Wonder what the male muzzie venue looks like?

A Youtuber went to Gaza during the middle of the Gaza war. There were plenty of nice restaurants open.
Looks like a shxthole to me and I’m sure it stinks like hell.
