Gaza woman tells Al-Jazeera Hamas stealing all the aid
Times of Israel ^ | December 7. 2023

Posted on 12/07/2023 11:53:35 AM PST by chuckee

In a rare display of public criticism, a Gaza resident tells the Al-Jazeera TV channel that the lack of aid to residents of the Strip is due to Hamas stealing it.

Asked about the supposed trickle of aid coming into Gaza, the woman, says there is plenty of aid, but “all aid goes down (into Hamas tunnels).”

“The aid does not reach the nation, all the people,” she says.

When the journalist from the pro-Palestinian Qatari channel tells her that only a small amount of aid is coming in and it is all being distributed, she shakes her fingers at him and says: “All of it goes into their houses. They take it and will even shoot me or do whatever they want, Hamas.”

Probably a little of each - Hamas stealing it as well as Gazans looting the warehouses and the stuff winding up on the black market. UN food programs globally always seem to find their way to a nation's black markets

Of course they are.

No humanitarian aid ever ends up reaching the people who it intended for. ALL corrupt dictatorships and regimes steal it. All the time.

Bet you the hag was jumping for joy when her fellow inbreds returned from their rape and pillage and were treated like conquering heroes.

Didn't they elect Hamas?

She will be killed in short order... HAMAS is better at killing Palestinian’s than it is at killing Jews. The Palestinian’s live right next door to them.

(that the lack of aid to residents of the Strip is due to Hamas stealing it.)

Don’t tell the idiots that are marching in support of Hamas!!

It will ruin their narrative!

The reporter did not look at all pleased. Seemed like he was interrupting her.

“Brave lady”

Yes she is.

I’m really not surprised that Hamas is stealing all the aid, it’s a very common MO.

Down in those African countries where Civil Wars are endless Civil Wars the local forces (whoever those lucky ones are) that are assigned to guard the aid as it is distributed report that as the poor get out of sight with their meager rations they are robbed of it anyway.

Because of course.

Please note: The people of Gaza elected Hamas.

Aid to Palestinians = aid to Hamas.
