The Spin

Pro-Israel narrative

The UN and other Hamas enablers claim that Israel was purposefully causing a famine in Gaza, but it's clear that no such famine ever happened. Recent studies have found that there is more than enough food entering Gaza, yet international organizations ignore this to perpetuate false narratives. Of course, distribution is a problem, but that is because Hamas keeps attacking aid convoys to steal food for itself. Indeed, the problem, like it has been since day one, is Hamas and its enablers.

Jerusalem Post

Pro-Palestine narrative

The hunger crisis in Gaza peaked in March, which is why international organizations said that famine was imminent. Under mounting international pressure and criticism for the siege it imposed on Gaza, Israel “slightly” improved food access, decreasing the risk of a full-on famine. However, starvation is still widespread, and the risk of famine hasn't subsided. Though food is entering the strip, it is nearly impossible to distribute because Israel has systematically targeted aid workers and created a state of utter insecurity.
