The video you’re about to see, and the story you’re about to read, will never make it to the front page of the New York Times. It should. It has EVERYTHING to do with the United States. This boy was shot and killed by a fake American charity. You won’t see this ANYWHERE on the news in America.

🚨 Your taxes literally paid for every atrocity you see in this video.

(Video by @khames.hasira on IG and translation by Translating Falastine)

A starving Palestinian father — gaunt, trembling, hungry — was holding the hand of his young son, Ibrahim, as they waited in line for flour.

That’s it.

They weren’t near the front lines.
They weren’t holding weapons.
They were trying to survive.

Then, without warning, Israeli forces opened fire on the crowd — aiming at civilians who had gathered at the so-called humanitarian food trucks in Zikim, northern Gaza.

Ibrahim was shot in the chest.
He died in his father’s arms.
And his father — still being shot at — cradled his child’s body on the pavement while bullets flew overhead.


🩸 The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation is not aid. It’s a trap.

Let me say this as clearly as I can:

The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation is a criminal enterprise.

This is not humanitarian work.
This is bait.

Time and time again, we are seeing starving people called to aid convoys, only for those convoys to become shooting galleries.

Aid is not aid if it comes with snipers.
Relief is not relief if it ends in body bags.

Today, according to the Ministry of Health in Gaza:

  • 67 Palestinians were killed while waiting for food

  • Hundreds more were injured

That number will rise.


🍞 Gaza is starving — and Israel is enforcing it

Flour has become more dangerous than bullets.
Trying to feed your children is now a death sentence.

And the worst part?
This famine isn’t natural. It’s man-made. On purpose.

Food is sitting right outside the borders of Gaza.
But Israel is blocking it.
And the United States is funding the blockade and arming the snipers.

Razan died yesterday.
Ibrahim died today.
And tomorrow — God help us — it will be someone else’s child.


📜 Under international law, this is a war crime

  • Starving a civilian population is a violation of the Geneva Conventions

  • Collective punishment is banned

  • And opening fire on civilians during food distribution is a crime under customary international humanitarian law

But Israel is doing it.
And the United States is not only staying silent — it’s signing the checks.

🕵🏽‍♂️ This Foundation Was Rotten From the Start

What they call the “Gaza Humanitarian Foundation” is not humanitarian.
It’s not neutral.
And it’s not safe.

It is a militarized operation disguised as aid, backed by the Israeli government and rubber-stamped by the United States.

Before it even launched — its CEO quit.

Multiple American contractors, logistics companies, and so-called “humanitarian advisors” backed out of the project — citing moral concerns, risk to civilians, and lack of independent oversight.

But instead of stopping the program, the U.S. and Israel pushed forward anyway.
And what they built is not a relief system.
It’s a killing machine.

Every time starving families are told to gather for flour, they’re being sent into a trap.
And now — more Palestinians have been killed at or around these “aid” convoys than the number of Israeli civilians killed on October 7th.

This isn’t aid.
This is psychological warfare.
And it is bloodstained by American hands.


🧠 What kind of world is this?

If this were reversed — if Hamas shot dozens of starving Israeli children while they waited for bread — it would be on every screen in the world.

But when it’s Palestinians?

Silence.

And that silence is a weapon, too.


Help us keep breaking that silence, OK?

This platform — this voice — is people-powered.
