Rinse and Repeat: Another Gaza Famine Lie Goes Viral. Another Image that Lied
On 23 July, the tragic _a href="https://x.com/Daily_Express/status/1947965041438761437">image of Muhammad Zakariya Ayyoub al-Matouq shook the world. Headlines told a story of a boy being forcibly starved in a Gaza famine. My research quickly exposed that story as a lie. Muhammad had cerebral palsy, had been sick since birth, and his siblings were healthy.
Barely a week later, legacy media played the same trick again – this time with a young girl called Maryam.
We are told Maryam was evidence of Gaza’s ‘catastrophic hunger crisis’:
Embarrassingly, the quoted doctors claiming tests showed ‘no underlying medical condition’ and that her condition was solely the result of hunger and malnutrition.
All of this was false.
Cropping out the Truth Coverage of Maryam’s tragic case involved deliberate omission. She has siblings – all apparently healthy. In some of the photos, they were present on the same mattress. Editors cropped them out, because their health would expose the lie.
If this were widespread famine, her siblings and mother would also show signs of starvation. They do not.
In one photo you can even see the legs of a healthy sibling just inside the frame:
(Famine - Maryam with sibling)
And in this image, from the same photoshoot, we can clearly see the young, healthy and well fed boy:
Every honest journalist would know that if the family is healthy, then the child has an underlying illness. They chose to cut that part of the story away.

A number of people on here spreading the same propaganda.
Every single strategy and tactic of hamass is a War Crime.
Certainly
3 people. Main pushers are two.
And most of them quite wittingly.
Now watch how Liz and Angelino097 add garbage keywords above...
Thanks for posting. This Jew-hating propaganda needs to be exposed and countered all over - even here at FR.
Rejoinder: All photos of starving children show normal weight adults so why don’t the adults skip a meal a day to feed the children?
The news media used to quote Baghdad Bob’s reports.
Now they think Hamas and similar propagandists are straight arrow truthtellers.
Taqiyya (also transliterated as taqiyah or taqiyyah) permits a Muslim to lie in order to save himself or to trick an enemy with evil intentions against Islam.
Pallywood propaganda lies.
HAMAS lies, and starves and murders the residents of Gaza.
Anyone who supports these lying bastards is an idiot, evil, or both.
Urinalist # 2: "Yeah! A victim of nazi oppression! Just like in the good old days!"
Yup...

“Palestinian holocaust” lie a “winning card” - for Palestinian Authority
Both PA and Hamas use false victimhood as “the winning card” in Oct. 7 war to turn the world against Israel
