Even with hundreds of thousands of people displaced, even with severe disruptions in the food supply, the chances of a Gazan dying of malnutrition are less than one-third that of an American during peacetime.
The tireless Elder of Ziyon has been examining Hamas’ claims of mass starvation in Gaza, and the statistics the terror group — through its “Government Media Office” — puts out to justify such a claim.
He has now compared those numbers to the figures we have about starvation in the U.S. And it turns out that there is a higher incidence of death from hunger and malnutrition in the U.S. than in Gaza.
But for some reason, the major media simply report Hamas’ claims about mass hunger in Gaza without looking at the figures Hamas provides — which are undoubtedly exaggerated — and comparing them to the figures on hunger here at home.
