Transcript [00:00] I hate being lied to and I hate being [00:02] propagandized. [00:04] And this weekend there was an allout [00:08] propaganda campaign [00:10] trying to make it seem as if Israel is [00:13] intentionally starving the people of [00:15] Gaza. I hate being lied to especially by [00:19] the media networks. They lied to us [00:20] about CO. They lied to us about the [00:21] vaccines. They lied to us about open [00:23] borders. They lied to us by laptop. [00:25] Joining us now now is Rabbi Wiki. uh [00:28] great friend and thank you so much for [00:31] defending me the other day. Rabbi Wiki, [00:33] you're also the YouTube people can find [00:34] you on YouTube, Israel 365. Rabbi, let's [00:37] just go through the facts here and then [00:38] let's get into the lies. What is what is [00:41] the situation in Gaza as the truth would [00:43] bear it out, not the New York Times [00:45] propagandist network. [00:48] >> Well, if we're talking about the [00:49] starvation lie and and thank you [00:51] Charlie, thank you for having me on to [00:52] talk about this. It's so important [00:54] because this is really pure pure [00:56] propaganda as you say. So since the [00:59] beginning of the war, since October 7th, [01:02] the whole issue of the food getting into [01:04] Gaza and how much food is getting in has [01:06] been weaponized by kamas and by all and [01:09] by the whole pro- kamas crowd. And what [01:12] they're doing most recently is claiming [01:13] that there's a starvation crisis. The [01:15] quantities of food, I'm not going to get [01:16] into the weeds of the numbers, but the [01:18] quantities of food that have been [01:19] brought into the Gaza Strip since the [01:21] beginning of the war and month over [01:23] month is enough to feed the Gaza Strip [01:25] according to the World Food Programs [01:28] numbers for what it takes to feed people [01:31] for longer than this war has gone on, [01:33] for about 27 months worth of food. And [01:35] there's plenty of food getting into the [01:37] Gaza Strip. But what's happening is that [01:40] Hamas is trying to perpetuate this this [01:44] narrative that Gazins are starving [01:46] because starting about two months ago, [01:49] the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation which [01:51] is run by Americans uh and is in [01:54] cooperation with the Israelis has [01:56] started distributing food started [01:59] distributing humanitarian aid directly [02:01] to the people of Gaza. And why why is [02:03] that important? Because until they [02:05] started doing that, the only way for [02:07] Gazins to get food was to get it from [02:09] Kamas. All of the tons and tons of food, [02:13] all the truckloads of food that have [02:14] been coming into the Gaza Strip as [02:16] humanitarian aid since the beginning of [02:18] the war until 2 months ago were brought [02:20] in by United Nations organizations that [02:23] were working handin glove with Hamas. It [02:26] was going directly to Hamas and then [02:28] Hamas would sell it at exorbitant prices [02:30] to the people, hoard it for themselves, [02:34] take all the fuel to fuel their war [02:36] machine, use it to recruit new recruits [02:38] into kamas. And it was keep it was [02:40] basically kamas's oxygen. [02:43] The estimates now by the United States, [02:45] by the State Department, is that Hamas [02:47] has made approximately $500 million just [02:52] from selling aid to the people of the [02:54] Gaza Strip since the war has began. So, [02:57] Israel has realized for a long time that [02:58] this is a problem because while the the [03:00] aid has to get to people, the aid is [03:02] also fueling Hamas. So 2 months ago, [03:04] they started this new program where in [03:06] areas that are under Israeli security [03:08] control on the Gaza Strip, they [03:10] distribute the food directly to the [03:12] Gazin citizens. All the aid is supposed [03:14] to be free. In fact, there are there are [03:16] videos and pictures online of uh [03:20] packages marked not for sale being sold [03:24] by kamas vendors to the people of the [03:26] Gaza Strip. So what's happening now is [03:28] because food is being distributed [03:29] directly to the Gazan citizens at these [03:32] distribution centers that's cutting off [03:34] Kamas's oxygen because the people can [03:36] get food directly from the Gaza [03:38] humanitarian foundation. They don't have [03:41] to pay exorbitant prices to kamas and [03:43] kamas is both losing control of the [03:45] population and also losing their cash [03:47] flow. So they started perpetuating this [03:49] starvation narrative uh a few really [03:53] just over the course of the last couple [03:54] of weeks. It has no basis. In fact, we [03:56] see this even from the Gaza Health [03:58] Ministry, which is Hamas's own numbers [04:01] for casualties for deaths throughout [04:03] this war. There's nobody dying of [04:05] starvation in the Gaza Strip. But you [04:07] could also see it looking at the [04:08] pictures on your screen right now. We [04:10] know what starving people look like. [04:11] These are Gazins. They're not emaciated. [04:13] They're not starving. The people of Gaza [04:15] are not starving. But Hamas needs to [04:18] perpetuate this narrative so that the [04:20] Gazi Humanitarian Foundation is [04:22] discredited and they could go back to [04:24] the old system of all of the food and [04:26] aid going to through the UN to Hamas so [04:30] they can retain control over the [04:32] population and keep their cash flow [04:35] going. There's a lot more to the story [04:36] than that. I don't know how into the [04:37] weeds you want me to go, but if people [04:39] go to our YouTube channel Love YouTube, [04:41] we've been covering this for for months. [04:45] >> Yes. So, let's just put this picture up [04:46] here. This is what really set me off. [04:48] And And these lies against Israel are [04:50] relentless. The This is a mother holding [04:53] a baby. And by the looks of it, this is [04:56] this is pure visual warfare. Plug a 309. [05:00] This is all this is. This is propaganda, [05:03] emotional, visual, optical warfare. [05:05] Optical warfare. And so, no one likes to [05:08] see what you're looking at here. Looks [05:09] like a kid who's starving to death. [05:11] Right? So, the whole story says this. [05:13] The story says, "Young, old, and sick [05:16] starve to death in Gaza, Gaza." That is [05:18] the front page of the New York Times. [05:21] And so the picture they're using is of [05:24] Muhammad Al Matawak, a child with a [05:27] muscular disorder, and they're using [05:30] that as the face of famine in Gaza. And [05:33] so what you are saying, Rabbi, just to [05:36] respond to the New York Times here. I'm [05:37] going to read the New York Times just [05:39] for people understand uh Israel uh I [05:42] can't it's got a little blurry but it [05:43] says that uh trading of blame and chaos [05:45] as um violence hit aid routes. Uh there [05:49] is nothing here. Um they are starving to [05:52] death and then the picture they are [05:55] using is a young kid who tragically is [05:58] suffering from a muscular disorder but [06:00] he's not starving to death. So just to [06:02] repeat what you're saying, Rabbi, you're [06:04] saying that there is no starvation in [06:06] Gaza. Is that correct? [06:09] >> Look, it could be that that in certain [06:12] areas under kamas control where they [06:14] still control things and are hoarding [06:16] the food that they're not distributing [06:18] it in order to create more of a [06:20] starvation and a desperation problem so [06:23] that gazins could be going hungry so [06:24] that they can perpetuate the narrative. [06:26] And that's not just, you know, a [06:28] conspiracy that I'm saying. Just the [06:30] other day, uh, there was drone footage [06:33] released by the Israelis to debunk the [06:35] whole starvation narrative of a thousand [06:38] truckloads of humanitarian aid that had [06:41] been delivered into the areas that are [06:43] still under Hamas control that were [06:46] sitting on the other side of the Gaza [06:48] border, meaning on the Gaza side of the [06:49] border. A thousand truckloads sitting [06:52] there for weeks and weeks. No one was [06:54] coming to pick it up. and the and the UN [06:58] was saying they had logistical problems. [07:00] And then as soon but right after Israel [07:02] released that drone footage of these 900 [07:04] truckloads over the last couple of days, [07:06] hundreds and hundreds of those [07:08] truckloads had been picked up because [07:09] they were humiliated [07:12] by the release of this drone footage [07:13] that showed that they simply weren't [07:15] taking the the aid into the Gaza Strip. [07:18] Now, let me make it clear. A thousand [07:20] truckloads of aid is about what it takes [07:22] to feed the entire Gaza Strip for two [07:24] weeks. and a significant portion of the [07:27] Gaza Strip is being fed now by this [07:29] other organization, the American [07:31] organization, the Gaza Humanitarian [07:33] Fund. So the for the for the Gazins who [07:35] remain under kamas control, this [07:37] thousand truckloads is probably a [07:38] month's worth of food and kamas was [07:40] simply not picking it up. [07:42] >> Listen, [07:44] I'm going to play this piece of tape [07:45] here live from Mount Aid. This is quite [07:47] a video, but you think about it from [07:49] Hamas's perspective. [07:51] >> Hamas would want the people of Gaza to [07:54] starve. Number one, they don't care [07:55] about their own people. They're just [07:56] cannon fodder for their radical Islamic [07:58] aims. [07:59] >> But secondly, if they can if they can [08:02] starve their people, then they can get a [08:05] media narrative in the West to try to [08:07] end the brokering of the war. So it's a [08:10] it's a circuitous way. It is a loophole [08:13] way of them to use their own kids to [08:15] starve, blame the Israelis for the [08:18] starvation to get the war against the [08:21] terrorists to stop. Let's play cut 312. [08:24] This is uh from uh someone fish burger. [08:29] I want to make sure I get that. [08:30] Fishburger who literally sees a thousand [08:33] things of aid. Look at all the aid that [08:36] is not being distributed to the the [08:38] people of Gaza. Play cut 312. [08:42] I don't know if you guys have ever seen [08:43] what [08:45] 600 [08:47] trucks worth of aid looks like, but this [08:50] is what it looks like. [08:53] That is a lot of aid. [08:56] Wow. [08:58] It's all going to waste because the UN [09:00] refuses to distribute it. Unbelievable. [09:04] Unbelievable. [09:06] Look at this. [09:08] Look at all that. [09:11] Literally mountains of aid. Literally. [09:14] Look. Standing on it. Standing on [09:16] mountains of aid. [09:24] I mean that that is an extraordinary [09:26] amount of food and aid. So is the UN [09:29] intentionally allowing the kids of Gaza [09:31] to starve? What what is going on here? [09:34] When you talk about the UN in in Gaza, [09:37] you're not talking about the people [09:38] sitting in the United Nations in New [09:40] York. The UN in Gaza is Hamas. That it [09:44] has been for a long time. That's if you [09:46] remember all of the flab earlier on in [09:48] the war about UNRA, the UN relief uh [09:50] works agency, which it turned out that a [09:53] lot of their employees were actually [09:55] members of Kamas who even participated [09:57] in October 7th because the UN employees [10:00] in Gaza are are all locals and kamas has [10:05] controls the UN in Gaza. So when you [10:07] hear about the schools, for example, [10:10] that Hamas uses as military sites, so [10:12] that when Israel bombs a military [10:14] installation and they say, "Oh, you [10:15] bombed a school." Those schools are UN [10:18] schools. So there really is no [10:20] distinction. It's a bit of it's kind of [10:21] a fictional distinction between the UN [10:24] and Kamas. When it comes to the Gaza [10:26] Strip, the UN is just kind of a cover [10:28] for Hamas. [10:32] Yeah. And it's just it's just such a lie [10:35] and it's creating so much hysteria here [10:39] in the United States. And just so we are [10:42] clear again, this is the only way that [10:44] Hamas can quote unquote survive the war [10:47] is through a narrative war where the [10:49] they win sentimentality in the West. So [10:52] they are willing to have their people [10:55] starve. They're willing to have invoked [10:58] famine so that they can win points in [11:01] the West and then blame it on Israel. [11:04] These are the very same people that did [11:05] this on October 7th against the innocent [11:08] Israelis on October 7th. Why wouldn't [11:10] they also do it to their own people? But [11:11] they are.
