Credibility issues: AI: Source considerations
Ramy Abdu / Euro-Med Monitor is a vocal Palestinian rights advocate. Their work highlights real incidents and testimonies but has faced criticism for selective framing, exaggeration, or unverified claims in other cases (e.g., recent disputed allegations involving dogs in detention). This doesn't automatically disprove every post, but it explains the dramatic, decontextualized presentation common on social media in this conflict.
Per AI: The caption's claim is misleading
The post says: "One of the most horrifying scenes in human history has been revealed. When Israel forced thousands in Gaza to collect flour mixed with sand due to severe famine."
This framing is propaganda spin, not accurate context:
No evidence Israel "forced" anyone to collect sand-mixed flour. Israel does not control ground-level distribution inside Gaza (Hamas and other armed groups have significant influence over aid once it enters).
These scenes typically happen when aid sacks burst during desperate scrambles at distribution points or when trucks are attacked/looted. Flour spills onto sandy/dirty ground and people scoop whatever they can.
There are real reports of hunger and people eating contaminated flour in parts of Gaza (UN, WFP, and journalists have documented this).
However, there are also documented cases of Gazans themselves dumping flour on the ground to reuse the valuable empty sacks for other goods (oil, sugar, etc.), because in some periods flour was relatively more available than other items.
@RepYassAnsari That's all you got???? He leans back like this often. Not sleeping. If you cannot address real issues and solutions you will continue to fail. Why not post something positive and get over you TDS. We all know this is all you post really is about. Sad very sad.
@mhdksafa I watched the people of Gaza hitting a dead woman body with their shoes and spitting on her after she was raped and killed and then brought over from the festival. Please Mohamad comment to this. The video is still on the internet. Have a look at your peaceful people.
@jacksonhinkle IF they stayed on their side of the fence none of this would have happened. What do you think about all those who died, where raped and kidnapped? What in the hell is wrong with you?

@TrumpLawGrad@HHuntsmanWrites@CENTCOM Good points as well. I think I just wanted to point out to those who read my reply that words have affects. But you are completely correct in the Checks and Balances. No doubt and on all admins. Thanks and a good conversation.
My point is that I see a lot of Anti Administration and other individuals wanting to point out things about Trump/IRAN. That is all fine and good (free speech) but... IRAN uses this for there own propaganda and it's not helpful in that sense. We are still America and Americans and need to support our team or at least I think so. Example is when Iran started using the word Quagmire after it was used by the Dems in going after our current admin. In this case I was pointing out the fact that words can go further than here at home. But again it is protected speech.
@RepYassAnsari Look at all you Dems claiming the DOJ is weaponized. Very interesting as you invented and perfected this same thing. Hurts people. It should never happen but it is ironic that you are complaining as you took the first swing. Crazy ass people you are.
Per AI: Yes, Israel has a massive, highly structured culture of folk dancing known as Rikudim (literally "Dances") or Rikudei Am (Folk Dances). Also note that your video of Dabke the kids highly modified the dance which is good but not an accurate presentation. Have a nice day.
