And every time, Hamas used relief funds and supplies to build more weapons and tunnels, instead of using them to help Palestinian civilians.

Yup.Israel has been attacking Gaza for decades, trying to ethnically cleans the land for Zion settlements
Timeline: Israel’s attacks on Gaza since 2005
This is the latest assault by Israel on Gaza since the 11-day war in May 2021 killed hundreds and wounded thousands.

Effects of the Gaza War (2008–2009)
There are multiple humanitarian, medical, economic, and industrial effects of the 2008–2009 Gaza War which started with the Israeli air strikes on 27 December 2008 and ended on 18 January with a cease-fire implemented unilaterally by Israel, and later the same day by Hamas and other Palestinian factions. The cease-fire followed twenty-two days of bombardment by land, sea and air which left over 1,300 Palestinians dead and over 5,000 injured, and the death of 13 Israelis. The United Nations Development Programme warned that there will be long-term consequences of the attacks on Gaza because the livelihoods and assets of tens of thousands of Gaza civilians have been affected
Effects of the Gaza War (2008–2009) - Wikipedia
The 2014 Gaza War, also known as Operation Protective Edge (Hebrew: מִבְצָע צוּק אֵיתָן, romanized: Miv'tza Tzuk Eitan, lit. 'Operation Strong Cliff'), was a military operation launched by Israel on 8 July 2014 in the Gaza Strip, a Palestinian territory that has been governed by Hamas since 2007. Following the kidnapping and murder of three Israeli teenagers in the West Bank by Hamas-affiliated Palestinian militants, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) initiated Operation Brother's Keeper, in which some 350 Palestinians, including nearly all of the active Hamas militants in the West Bank, were arrested. Hamas subsequently fired a greater number of rockets into Israel from the Gaza Strip,
The Israeli military operation aimed to stop rocket fire into Israel from the Gaza Strip.

So the folks administering the territory of Gaza, and its citizenry, were free to come and go as they like, and free to trade, prosper and grow, and interact with the world as they please. .. .2023
There was no siege on-going, controlling every calorie of food going in, every bit of construction material, and anyone that claimed that they were under a brutalizing occupation? That is just a lie?
I'm not even going to bother with such ignorance. If you didn't watch the entire video, and you aren't educated on the situation, I don't have time for you.

Which also begs the question, why does Egypt enforce a blockade?

Despite all that, l was wondering how weapons were getting into Gaza. For example, all the Hamas militia were heavily armed.
And the rockets, incessantly aimed at Israel, did they make them themselves?

If a nation does not have control of its borders?There may have been a blockade to stop weapons but no occupation
By definition. . . if it is under siege, IT IS OCCUPIED.
Watch the video in post #86Which also begs the question, why does Egypt enforce a blockade?
