This reads like straight propaganda, its absolutely true Hamas as stockpiles.
Know who else has stock piles of food and water? Isreal, and the UNRWA… hell the UN stockpile is sitting in trucks ready to get to the civilians.
What is the military utility of cutting food and water, then saying … ohh look at the besieged city, look at how evil the people in the city are not sharing food and water amongst themselves. Know who else isn’t sharing Food and Water inside of Israel ? The IDF!
So cutting of food and water doesnt even hurt Hamas it’s just to be cruel to civilians?
From the total war doctrine, it does hurt Hamas, putting pressure on the civil government will hurt the ability to conduct war.
Their used to be a theory that you could break the fighting spirit of a people with embargos and bombings, but it fell out of favor in wwii.
*after wwii. Goebbels most famous words are “Wollt ihr den totalen Krieg?” from his speech at the Berliner Sportpalast in 1943. But even after wwii the US bombing campaigns and massacres in Korea and Vietnam still stem from a total war doctrine. It never really went away.
US and European press coverage on Gaza is totally discredited. They just parrot Israeli talking points. Go to Al Jazeera English if you want to know what’s going on.
