'Israeli hostages may be the only people purposely starved in Gaza'. Dan Perry says that there is "clearly hunger in Gaza". You cannot deny that there is hunger in Gaza, according to Dan Perry, former head of the Associated Press Africa, Middle East, and Europe desks. “There clearly is hunger in Gaza,” Perry said last week on the ILTV News Podcast. “Half of Gaza has been flattened, the economy has been destroyed. It's not by any means self-sufficient. It's blockaded from all sides — from the sea and from the air. It's under very severe military assault. I don't think...

While the world pushes false claims of Gaza starvation, the truth is far more disturbing—and far more ignored. In this critical episode of MidEast & Beyond, Amir Tsarfati and Pastor Barry Stagner unpack breaking developments across Israel’s war fronts: the end of Operation Gideon’s Chariots, the possible complete siege of Gaza City, Hezbollah’s weakening grip on Lebanon, the looming Israeli operation in Yemen, and the manufactured famine narrative exploited by global media. From fake humanitarian photo ops to spiritual deception on a worldwide scale, this is a wake-up call to the Church and the world.

…Those who take the side of Israel at times will go to the extreme of almost idolizing Israel, where Israel can do no wrong, and praising every move that Israel makes without considering the fact that Israel is not a country run by God-fearing people, nor is it a country that looks to God for direction. On the other side, there are those in the Church who go to the other extreme and blame Israel for every bad thing happening in the world today. Many of these people are calling to boycott Israel in all areas including cutting relations with...

Taiwan has a “far more robust” claim to statehood than Palestine does, former British prime minister Boris Johnson said during a conference in Taipei, Taiwan, according to a Tuesday report by British outlet The Telegraph…. “Never in the wildest dreams of former Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, can he have believed – when he and his colleagues instigated the horror of October 7, 2023 – that only 22 months later the United Kingdom itself would be so craven and pathetic as to fall for Hamas propaganda and to turn against Israel,” Johnson wrote in his column in the UK outlet Daily...

“The Story Itself Is Fake”: Former Associated Press Journalist Exposes The Media's Complicity With Hamas. “Instead of covering the circus, the reporters became dancing bears in the circus.” — Matti Friedman In a charged conversation at the 2025 AJC Global Forum in New York this past April, veteran journalist and former Associated Press (AP) correspondent Matti Friedman issued a sobering warning: the Western media is not reporting the Israeli-Palestinian conflict — it’s helping to construct it. And worse, he says, it's doing so under the ideological direction of Hamas. Friedman, who served at the AP's Jerusalem bureau from 2006 to...

Hamas claims hostage Evyatar David shares meager rations with captors, but a well-fed terrorist’s hand caught on camera tells a different story; survivors and family denounce the starvation as sadistic propaganda. Hamas released two disturbing videos of 24‑year‑old hostage Evyatar David, kidnapped during the October 7 massacre from the Nova music festival, who has now been held in Gaza for 666 days.

The term "pallyweid" can be used to describe a specific type of rhetoric or narrative about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that is both misleading and one-sided, often found in discussions that accuse Israel erroneously of “apartheid” and “genocide.” Here's how the key elements can be incorporated into the term: Pallyweid and the Apartheid SlurThe term pallyweid draws from the "apartheid" false accusation leveled at Israel, which critics claim is based on systemic racial segregation akin to the policies of South Africa during apartheid. In reality, Israel’s legal and political framework is far different from the brutal racial segregation of the South...

The New York Times admitted Tuesday that an emaciated Palestinian child it featured on the the front page suffered from “pre-existing health problems” that it had presented, inaccurately, as the result of starvation. There is an ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza — the result of poor food distribution, not low supply, as Hamas and armed gangs loot aid convoys. Hamas also refuses to release Israeli hostages and end the war. As Breitbart News reported, the child, photographed by Ahmed Jihad Ibrahim Al-arini of the Turkish Anadolu agency, had a muscular disorder. Few outlets that ran the photo disclosed that fact...
