How can they announce the distribution of 100 million meals while the reality is completely different?
The image shows a huge claim about this aid, but the reality reveals a failure in its delivery.
People truly need help — but do these numbers reflect what's really happening on the ground? 🤔
Who can verify this number that appeared during Witkoff's visit: "100,000,000 meals" for 2.2 million people in Gaza? That means approximately 46 meals per person.
My family has five members; according to this math, we should have received 230 meals.
We haven’t received anything. And most of the people I know — relatives, neighbors, and friends — haven’t heard of it either.
We haven't received any aid or food packages from any organization for over five months, and each day our suffering grows.
We've spent all our savings and have nothing left... even our home was destroyed with everything in it.
We're no longer asking for much — just some food to keep us alive… so we don't die of hunger in silence.
DON’T SKIP, PLEASE I BEG YOU.
Please, I beg you — don’t scroll past this.
Don’t look away. Every second matters. Children in Gaza are not just starving — they are dying from hunger. This heartbreaking photo shows just one of the many innocent lives wasting away in silence. My own baby, little Qais, is suffering the same fate. He’s just a small child, too weak to walk, too empty to cry. I’m pleading with you to donate anything you can — even the smallest amount could help save his life and the lives of others like him.
The famine in Gaza is a human-made catastrophe, driven by unbearable conditions:
1. Total blockade: Food, medicine, and aid are deliberately prevented from reaching millions of civilians.
2. Destruction of agriculture: Airstrikes have wiped out farms, bakeries, and water systems, cutting off local sources of survival.
3. Collapse of healthcare: With hospitals under attack and no supplies left, malnourished children like Qais are left with no treatment, no care, and no chance to recover.
Together, these three forces are killing Gaza’s children. Hunger is no longer just a crisis — it’s an execution.
I’m just a mother holding onto hope with bleeding hands. I cannot feed my son. I cannot keep him warm. I watch him slip away — not because I failed him, but because the world abandoned us. Please, I’m begging you from the depths of my shattered heart: don’t let Qais be another nameless victim. Don’t let hunger erase him. Give whatever you can. Share this. Speak up. You are his last hope. Help Qais live.
PLEASE DONATE HERE
If Qais was your only child, would you leave him to face his fate alone?
DONATE HERE PLEASE
DON'T SKIP, I BEG YOU ✋🚨 you're the only hope to save a child😔😭
I say it over and over again. We are hungry, we are exhausted, we need food.
Any donation that could save our lives from starvation? Donate here.
Please continue to support Mahrah! Any amount helps!
Please help!!!!
The most basic human rights in Gaza have become mere dreams.
Thank you. Please continue to support us and donate to us. Please. We need your help, please.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has decided to order a full military occupation of the Gaza Strip to force Hamas to free the hosta
Gaza is dying… and if no one moves, it will die in front of the whole world.
We are human beings, not a displacement project. We’re not numbers to be counted after every bombing. We are souls… children, mothers, entire families who once dreamed of living in peace. We are not to blame for the war of this fascist Zionist occupation. We did nothing to deserve our homes turned to rubble, to be displaced, killed in cold blood, or live in terror.
This occupation doesn’t want prisoners. It wants to kill, to uproot, to destroy, to expand its grip and erase our existence.
Just days ago, our home was reduced to a pile of debris. Everything vanished—only fear and tears remained. Now we dream of escape, of survival, of simply staying alive.
We did nothing wrong, yet we pay the price every single day. And if the world stays silent… this catastrophe will grow— and it will be a permanent stain on the face of all humanity.
Please do something before it's too late, time is running out and we need your help for me and my family to be okay and find the right opportunity to travel away from here in the midst of this deadly and terrifying war of the fascist Zionist occupation
Unfortunately, I cannot provide food for me and my family for one day
Due to the deteriorating situation imposed by the Israeli occupation, with severe restrictions and worsening famine, the cost of a family's food for one day exceeds $100. In addition to the high prices, the commission fees have reached 52%, meaning that withdrawing $100 requires $210, more than double that amount
I am appealing to you to donate to me and my family. We are facing extremely tragic and difficult circumstances. Do not ignore us. Any donation, no matter how small, will greatly help us secure food. I hope my voice reaches generous and kind people. I pray that God will protect you and your families and that you do not suffer what we are suffering
if you have a moment, please consider giving some attention to my friend Nader ( @nader202-3 )'s campaign. besides himself, he is providing for his wife, Sally ( @sally2033 ), and their three young children, Laila, Nour, and Ahmed, as well as his parents and siblings. Nader's father was injured in the airstrike that destroyed the family's home; due to the lack of available medical care, he continues to struggle with long-term complications. this bombing also killed several of the Gibril family's relatives, including Nader's aunt, uncle, and cousin with his whole family.
now, their situation has gotten even more dire. earlier this month, Nader attempted to get food for the family at one of the israeli/US-run GHF aid distribution sites. as you've likely heard, these facilities have been used as cover to deliberately kill and injure people who come seeking desperately needed food. over 240 humanitarian organizations have called for the GHF to cease operations, and according to the UN, over 1,000 people have been killed while seeking aid. thankfully, Nader was not among them—but he was shot in the back and is now recovering from this serious injury without the benefits of easily accessible medicines, nutritious food, or even a safe and quiet place to rest.
Nader and Sally's children are all under ten years old. they are acutely vulnerable to starvation and the long-term consequences of malnutrition. if the Gibril family's campaign doesn't raise sufficient funds to buy food (which can be over $200 USD per day), Sally or one of the other adults in the family will have to risk their life seeking aid from the GHF. this is not tenable. they should not have to choose between being shot and watching their beloved children fade away from starvation.
your donations and engagement with Nader and Sally's campaign mean that Nader can recover without having to worry for his family, that Sally won't have to risk death or injury to feed their children, and that Laila, Nour, and Ahmed can survive and stay healthy. even just sharing their posts, following one or both of their blogs, or dropping a kind word is a reminder that they are not facing this terrible situation alone. whatever you can do to help is valuable.

Save family 🙏💔
My name is Enas. I have eight children of varying ages and two grandchildren.
The reality of war, pain, and destruction we have faced daily for nearly two years is indescribable. Before that, we were a normal family, like yours: we worked in various professions (accountant, school guard, nurse, etc.), held social gatherings, and celebrated birthdays. Since then, we have lost everything: our homes, our jobs, our possessions, our family members, and our friends. Our lives are in tatters.
The past three months have been hell. Constant displacement (five times), living in a squalid tent, water scarcity, and unbearable food. We eat at most one meal a day, usually canned beans or rice Even if this is found at very high prices, we go days without even a single meal a day My family and I are hungry 💔.
Escaping starvation and death seems impossible. The crossing is closed, keeping us trapped in Gaza.
I launched this campaign because it is our only hope for survival until the crossing is finally opened, or, God willing, this war ends and reconstruction begins.
You are our hope. Your contributions make a direct difference in our daily lives, and we use the funds as soon as they arrive (the total you see is the generous donations from people since the beginning of our campaign).
Every cent counts. Every contribution within your network helps us.
I will always be extremely grateful to you.
I am Enas, and I have eight children. I don't know how to describe to you the feelings of war, the pain, the suffering, and the destruction
Help us live 🚨💔 donate to us, even if it's a little. Extend a helping hand and save us. Prices are high, and we can't satisfy our children's hunger. Can you donate $100? If you can't donate as much as you can and share my post so my children's cries reach as many people as possible. Thank you in advance🙏🫂🥹.
Please donate to me as much as you can. 🙏🥺😭💔
Your donation, even if it's small, could save us. It could bring a smile to the face of a child who has only known the cruelty of war🥺🙏🍉.

"The normalization, the acceptance, the embrace, the belief that a settler-colonial project can be reformed, can be saved, that it's somehow not rotted to the core, needs to be combated. When you normalize the right of one settler-colonial project to exist, you're letting colonized people know that your solidarity is conditional... Any excuse you give for normalization of a settler colonial project is fundamentally a betrayal to colonized people all around the world, especially when you yourself are a settler... Let me make this plain: If you accept 1776, how are we to believe that you reject 1948?"
-Deculturation, "Superman, Colonialism, and Decolonization!"
We are at a moment in the genocide of Palestinians where even those directly, tangibly implicated in the atrocity are unable to deny the sheer scale of death.
This doesn't mean the tide is turning on public perception. Instead, it just means that the specific aim of propaganda used to justify these conditions is shifting.
Netanyahu denies outright the widespread starvation, and Trump meanwhile acknowledges starvation but blames Palestinians and argues for more US "food centers" in Gaza. These two discourses are happening concurrently while the the US and Israel are working together to block actual aid from reaching Gazans and funneling everyone into GHF death traps.
GHF is run by a longtime agent of US imperialism and a prominent evangelical christian zionist, and these "aid" sites are staffed by privately contracted mercenaries. They are located near Israeli military posts. Every single day these sites are used to massacre starving people.
Pay attention. There is no real disagreement happening. There are many forms of genocide denial, and many forms of genocidal propaganda.
If someone claims to be opposing Israel's genocide of Palestine but they do not oppose the colonization of Palestine, they do not support a free Palestine. If people will argue for aid and ceasefire, but will not argue for the right to return and for the abolition of Israel as a settler-colonial state, they do not support a free Palestine.
Messaging that objects to the current moment without recognition of the structural context is normalizing propaganda. This functions as an international pressure valve, allowing the global north to maintain an illusion of moral authority and to scale back to tactics of genocide just beneath whatever drew international attention. They present themselves to the "solution" of the atrocities produced by their control.
One cannot sincerely oppose genocide without opposing settler-colonialism. Settler-colonialism is inseparable from genocide in its goals, practices, and ideological justifications.
We must fundamentally object to the settlement of Palestine, and never let colonial propaganda to distract from the demand of liberation from the river to the sea.
My friend Ahmed is only 16 years old. Two years ago his home was destroyed by Israel, and his family has been homeless, displaced many times, and lives in a tent. He is disabled, his brother is injured, and they struggle to afford medicine and food.
Yesterday the occupation cut off the water to his entire area. The global humanitarian nutrition advisor for CARE, an international humanitarian organization fighting global poverty and hunger explained: "We have seen, from case studies of starvation, that it takes up to 60 days before the body fully shuts down if the person has access to water. If you don’t have access to water, you can die as quickly as three to five days."
Israel bombed the infrastructure center and the sewage and wastewater destroyed their family's already dilapidated tent. They desperately need to buy a new tent and to get access to water as soon as possible.
Adding insult to injury, tumblr recently deleted Ahmed's blog. His new blog is @ahmedaldaniii and his fundraiser has been vetted by @gazavetters, number 198 on the list.

All the news outlets reporting on the starvation in Ghazzah had no problem championing the bombs and starvation when it was happening last year. Don't let them get away with the blood on their hands today, and don't let them get away with it tomorrow.
They're all guilty.
there is a vast amount of white european lefitsts on here who think that their countires are a.) not imperial cores an b.) are some utopias who have no power, or who have not made a negative impact on the world around them.
nevermind the fact that acting like their countries are flawless, homogenous promised lands that allow them to scoff on americans, but so many european countires are racist, have colonized the world, were/are imperial cores, etc.
america is an english colony. and even then, parts of america are french and spanish colonies - each of those two countries have pillaged, raped and destroyed half of the world and are imperial cores in their own right. they all enabled america. and lbr, people from those countries are racist af.
If i have a dollar every time I heard a european say that racism is not their problem nor is it something they are capable fo because they're "a whole continent away" i wouldn't have had the sign away my rights to go to school
Have you ever tried to sleep while your stomach screams in pain, not because you're on a diet, but because there’s no food at all?
My friend Ghada's family consists of 14 members, including 6 children. The children haven’t known the taste of fullness for months, mothers divide a single bite between three little ones, and fathers cry silently because they can’t feed their kids.
Hunger here isn’t just a feeling… hunger here is a slow death.
Please… don’t ignore this cry.
Share… donate… do anything before another innocent life fades away.

“The widely circulated timeline created by @Zerflin does a great job in showing how recently slavery & segregation occurred & that they lasted longer than the modern era.
“I'd like to offer this timeline as another way of viewing the same period of history to show the constancy of both Black resistance in US & efforts of the white power structure to maintain racial caste since 1619.”

This second picture is MUCH more accurate!
I had the exact same experience the second time I looked at this picture as the first time. I was looking like "what is this green line? Like suddenly everything is OK? It's not. Racists are still trying to push us back to 1619. Nothing has been fixed. We still need to fight. Hard!
Former political candidate Hannah Thomas, who was beaten so severely by police at a Palestine protest that she may suffer permanent blindness, joined the protest on the Sydney Harbour Bridge, raising her hand and her heart beating fast for fear of more deaths in Gaza and for fear of more starvation. She said no to silence and put over her eye injured by Gaza the Palestinian flag and her face that is about to cry for the children who dream of drinking milk. This means one thing: defending Palestine doesn’t require strength, it only requires conscience and a brave heart. (My family is one of the families this woman is defending. No safety, no food, no humanity.) Any donation from you, whether small or large, will save my family from destruction. Donate here and share the post. Don’t forget to like.

making my own post. i don't want to derail from the white immigrants getting detained, that shit is traumatic! but i am irked by europeans/canadians/etc thinking that their white citizens getting detained/deported is so shocking/appalling and since THEY don't see random us citizen #5 talking about it, people in the us must not know about the outside world or how this country is affecting their people!
like hey friend, yes your white citizen getting detained is alarming because white people have unspoken privilege wherever they travel. how bad is the us now that they're going after white people? nevermind the thousands of black and brown people (adults, children, fathers, friends) being brutalized in detention camps. what about you good friend Tom eh! sidenote, how's that "boat hotel" holding refugees in the uk going? france still banning the veil and beating the shit out of kids of color right? was it italy or spain letting refugees drown in the mediterranean sea?
Andrea Velez, a US citizen, was arrested in the time it took her mother to drive less than a block. She was on her way to work. She’s Latina. It appears that was enough. Tuesday morning, Andrea Velez’s mom and sister dropped her off near her workplace. She’s a production coordinator at Top Pick Global. Andrea graduated with a degree in fashion from Cal Poly Pomona. Near Andrea’s work, an ICE raid was taking place. In fact, someone had called the LAPD to say a “kidnapping” was taking place. The LAPD showed up, saw it was an immigration raid — LAPD is not permitted to assist ICE in immigration raids — and immediately switched to crowd control, making sure people weren’t in the street and so on. As Andrea walked toward her place of employment, she says she looked up and saw an ICE agent barreling toward her. In the flash of thoughts that went through her mind, she thought maybe she was being targeted for the color of her skin, that maybe he thought she was not a US citizen. She instinctively held up her bag and the agent bowled into her. Her mother — they hadn’t even made it a block away yet — looked in the rear view mirror and saw the plainclothes ICE agents standing over her daughter and putting her in cuffs. “They’re kidnapping your sister,” she said. Andrea tried to get the LAPD to help, and so did her mother and sister. According to her mother and other witnesses, no one ever asked Andrea for ID or asked about her status. The police didn’t help, even when Andrea’s mother was screaming she was a US citizen. In fact, according to some witnesses, they moved to stand around Andrea to make it more difficult to film what was happening. For the first 24 hours, her family couldn’t find Andrea. They didn’t know where she had been taken or what was happening. They hired lawyers who managed to find her, but no one would tell them what she was being charged with, only that she would likely face federal charges. DHS publicly said she would be charged with “assaulting an officer.” When they got to court yesterday, ICE lawyers downgraded that to “obstructing” an officer. An ICE officer claimed that Andrea purposely stepped in his way and raised both of her arms to stop him from going after someone he was trying to arrest. Witnesses tell the story the way Andrea does: an ICE agent approached her, knocked her down, then arrested her without asking any questions about her status or identity. Andrea, her lawyer, her mother and sister all have the same theory: during an ICE raid an ICE agent saw a Latina and scooped her up because of the color of her skin, and had to invent another reason once it was discovered she was a US citizen, born and raised in Los Angeles. Andrea was released on a 5k bond yesterday.
Immigration officers have recently taken to arresting Latino and Hispanic US citizens on raids and claiming obstruction or assault, only to release them a few days later, sometimes without charges. On June 12th, for instance, Brian Gavidia walked outside his work and saw immigration officers. He told them he was a US citizen and showed them his Real ID. They pushed him up against a fence and started asking him questions like “What hospital were you born in.” DHS later said he had “assaulted an officer” -- video evidence does not back this up -- but they didn’t charge him. Or return his ID. (A common pattern: DHS will say something like this on social media, but not in court. It appears to be a PR stunt, not any attempt at communicating something true or legally actionable.) When CNN reached out to DHS on this one they added that Brian “attempted to flee” as well, which is remarkable given that he’s a US citizen who literally just stepped outside his place of work. Adrian Martinez, 20, had a run-in with Border Patrol on his break at WalMart. It sounds like — this is unclear — he tried to obstruct a BP vehicle that held one of his friends from work. Border Patrol agents grabbed him and claim that he punched one of them. Of course, a nearby bystander was recording and there is no evidence of a punch. And Border Patrol went on to say that Adrian was a “hostile group” of men, which is weird because he’s one guy… unless they are counting Oscar Preciado, the delivery driver who stood nearby and videoed the whole thing. Neither Oscar’s video nor surveillance cameras that caught the entire event show a punch. Border Patrol says that the complete videos “are missing critical moments and don’t tell the whole story.” But after holding Adrian for THREE DAYS they also dropped the assault charge. Because, as Adrian’s lawyer said, “He didn’t assault anyone.” They’re now charging him with “conspiracy to impede or injure an officer” which his lawyer calls “trumped up” charges. ICE has claimed that upwards of 70% of those they arrest are “serious criminals” but their own statistics tell a different story. In the most recent ICE stats publicly released:
75% of people in ICE private prisons have nothing more than an immigration related issue or a traffic violation
47% of those being held by ICE have no criminal conviction at all… no criminal immigration violation, traffic violation, or criminal charge of any kind.
Would you like to guess the percentage of “serious criminals” who are being held by ICE? We’ve been told over and over that we’re after the “worst of the worst” so I suspect it must be an impressive number. And that number is: NINE PERCENT. It certainly appears that the enormous daily quota for arrests is encouraging quantity arrests rather than quality arrests. Arresting a US citizen, even if you have to release them a few days later, counts toward the arrest. Arresting a tourist at the border rather than refusing them entry counts toward the quota. Arresting people at their green card interviews, tricking immigrants without lawyers into giving up their asylum claims and immediately arresting them once they agree, these all count toward the quota. Some key takeaways:
Don’t call the police expecting help during an immigration raid. Even in states like California, where they are not legally allow to assist federal immigration forces, they also are unlikely to step in and help US citizens or others being abused. Best case scenario: they do some crowd control.
ICE and other immigration forces are not afraid to arrest US citizens (and others) on trumped up charges, hold people, and release them later. There’s literally no consequences for them as individuals or corporately.
It is ICE policy to lie. This is not an exaggeration. They call it a “ruse.” ICE agents aren’t just allowed to lie, they are encouraged to do so and trained to do so. ICE agents are trained to trick and confuse people. Andrea Velez, a US citizen, was arrested in the time it took her mother to drive less than a block. She was on her way to work. She’s Latina. It appears that was enough. (x)
