Gaza Said To Be Starving But Not 'Release The Hostages' Starving​

World·Jul 25, 2025 · BabylonBee.com

GAZA — Despite reports that multiple men, women, and children had starved to death in the war-torn Gaza Strip as a result of the ongoing Israel-Gaza War, with approximately 50,000 more facing starvation, Hamas sources said they were not "release the hostages" starving.

"We are starving! I mean, not 'release the hostages starving' but, you know, we're pretty hungry," said Gaza spokesperson Ghazi Hamad, also known as the Voice of Hamas. "Shame on Israel for creating a strategic blockade to force us to give up the hostages! Shame!"

Since the start of the conflict that resulted from the October 7, 2023, attack in which Hamas killed approximately 1,200 people and took 251 hostages, Israel has deployed the use of routine military strategies such as fighting back and setting up a blockade on resources to secure the release of the remaining hostages, causing outrage among the Palestinians. "It's unfair!" said one Gazan as he beat a hostage. "I'm hungry! Just not, you know, hungry enough to give up this hostage."

According to the Gaza Health Ministry, the number of starving Gazans has increased daily. "As our resources diminish, what may start off as a dozen starving children can quickly turn to hundreds and thousands," said Dr. Marwan Naim. "It's almost enough to make us want to give up the hostages. Not quite. But almost."

According to sources, Hamas leadership (which has seen significant turnover in the last two years) remained confident that Israel would crack any minute and simply hand over their entire nation and kill themselves, turning the conflict into an elaborate game of chicken to see who will blink first, the people starving to death or the people with comparatively unlimited resources.

At publishing time, the Gaza Health Ministry reported that the number of starving had risen to the hundreds of thousands, which was really bad but still not quite bad enough to give up the hostages.

Lesson to be learned... don't vote for a Hamas government to run your country....

Nope...this is more lies.

What has happened is that the food is actually getting to the people for a change instead of being confiscated and sold at exorbitant prices to the people it was given to.

Yeah....whine all you want. People are actually getting the food aid. They found ways around the Hamas confiscation.

 

[Rambunctious]

Lesson to be learned... don't vote for Hamas to run your country.... and don't cheer as Jews and Americans are killed... I do not have any sympathy for them.... make your bed and lay in it...

So you are saying the Palestinians, driven from their homes, villages smashed, no food, no shelter, no where to go, somehow have huge bank accounts still to pay exorbitant prices for food??? Then why don't they just hop on a plane and fly out of there???

 

[Dogmaphobe]

The hostages died long ago.

The subhumans killed them.

 

[Yarddog]

Hamas steals the food. they sell the food, and they get a 2fer.... they can blame Israel more, and they can keep the regular people WEAK from hunger so they can never rise up as well and kick Hamas out.

The subhumans killed them.

And now they shall join them.

Evidently the children there have the power to release the hostages and would rather starve than release them.

MAGA humor for ya.

 

[Failzero]

The IDF must Retake the captured & pilfered food from Hamas and give it to the people ( and get the hostages while doing so )

Hamas is a hoot everyone

I wonder how they are polling in the next election.

Isn't democracy wonderful?

And why does Israel have to be the only nation in the history of the world to provide food and shelter to an enemy it is at war with, an enemy that carried out the barbarity of Oct. 7. No other nation has done this, or should do it.

Because, that's why.

Depraved Palestinians who cheered for their beloved Hamas and even joined them in Oct. 7 would probably vote for them today if elections were held.

How do you fight such indoctrination and blind hate?



Very sad, but Israel will have to shoot every one of them dead that go down this road.

Yep.

Or just blow Hamas to hell and the food they stole with them. Then bring in more food that the Palestinian children will actually get.

There is plenty of food in the world. People don't starve due to any worldwide food shortage. People starve due to governments and quasi-governments keeping food from them.

Yes, you want food and supplies sent to Hamas because Hamas uses children as pawns in their propaganda scheme to fool useful idiots.

There are no airports in Gaza.

 

[JohnDB]

There are no airports in Gaza.

But but but but.....Bill Clinton spent billions of US taxpayer dollars to build one.

They had one....until they used it for staging and launching terrorist attacks on cargo ships, cargo and tourist planes, and warehousing munitions.

Then somehow it mysteriously blew up.
And now they want us to give them another international airport.
