  1. God will not forgive "Plastilin" actions spanning over a century, especially not those appalling deeds committed on and after October 7th.

  2. Um, how do kids with no arms play with the toys in their air drop McHappy meals ? I do hope they took they toys out before the air drop. To leave them in would just be cruel.

  3. Stop the war , they don’t need your meals

  4. Must be worried elections coming up

  5. u.s needs to stop giving.❤️🤍💙

  6. Byron is buying more votes with more taxpayer money.

  7. Airdrops in Gaza while sending weapons to terrorist state of Israel,

  8. U.S tax money getting spent on everything except helping its own citizens

  9. "The media's the most powerful entity on earth. They have the power to make the innocent guilty and to make the guilty innocent, and that's power. Because they control the minds of the masses." –
    Malcolm X

  10. Citizen in Gaza: “War is better for us than American aid. America is the reason for what is happening to us , America thinks it will buy us by this aid"

  11. Mark 5:1-20 And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.
    And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,
    Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains:
    Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him.
    And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones.
    But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him,
    And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.
    For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit.
    And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.
    And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country.
    Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding.
    And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.
    And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.
    And they that fed the swine fled, and told it in the city, and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that was done.
    And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.
    And they that saw it told them how it befell to him that was possessed with the devil, and also concerning the swine.
    And they began to pray him to depart out of their coasts.
    And when he was come into the ship, he that had been possessed with the devil prayed him that he might be with him.
    Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee.
    And he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all men did marvel.

  12. They should drop the food where they want them to evacuate to.

  13. Trying to hide their murderous crimes by doing this. Everyone knows who you truly are…

  14. Gaza citizen looks a US gift horse in the mouth and announces it has no teeth. 1:53

  15. So, we help fund the g3noc!de but at the same time we send them food? How about pressuring those that are doing the atrocities and just allow normal life to come back? They are fighting an expensive and futile war that will not lead to anything positive. We all know why there is a history of violence.. when you disposses people, remove their dignity and their lives, there will be no peace. When you acknowledge that the only way to peace is to give the Palestinians their freedom. US is wasting our taxpayer's money. We give the other group of people food but then we supply the other group their weapons? How will that create peace? Make it conditional. No more funding of war. This is bipolar and insane! This is making it unsafe for ordinary Americans the longer this continues. US citizens don't support this dehumanization of a group of people. It's not what the country stands for.

  16. Palestine economy is destroyed how people feed for the long years????

  17. Don't start a war and you won't need to rely on aid from other countries, it's just that simple.

  18. that's like me giving someone the tools to destroy your home then out of political pressure i mean generosity I hand you a bottle of water and a bandage and expect you to show appreciation towards me and be grateful at least i gave you a bottle of water so STOP COMPLAINING!!!! AHHH!!! how dare you complain after i was complicit in your destruction, come on it's only political nothing personal. just take the water and keep silent.

    This is America's logic

  19. This is funny. Just imagine , the people demolishing your city is being sponsored by same people air dropping supplies

  20. Jarmani amrica u k frans israil janosaid in Gaza pipal ok

  21. how hypocritical they are 🇺🇸, And helping 🇮🇱 🤮. Risky 😂😂😂

  22. Greedy middle east dictators are root cause of ALL the poverty in middle east. Everyone in middle east should be rich but greedy dictators including Hamas just want to control and accumulate the wealth. Why is middle east stuck in dark ages with no industrialization? Makes no sense. Why aren't those greedy middle east dictators like Erdogan in Turkey air dropping food or going directly into Gaza to give aid because they don't care and are all talk but US tax dollars paying for this while Saudis sit on billions of dollars?

  23. يَايُّهَا الَّذِينَ امَنُوا لَا تَتَّخِذُوا الْيَهُودَ وَ النَّصْرَى أَوْلِيَاءَ بَعْضُهُمْ أَوْلِيَاءُ بَعْضٍ وَمَنْ يَتَوَلَّهُمْ مِنْكُمْ فَإِنَّهُ مِنْهُمْ إِنَّ الله لا يَهْدِى الْقَوْمَ الظَّلِمِينَ

    O you who have believed, do not take the Jews and the Christians as allies. They are [in fact] allies of one another. And whoever is an ally to them among you – then indeed, he is [one] of them. Indeed, Allah guides not the wrongdoing people.

  24. Those meals won't last long. What will you do, USA? Are you going to actually create a solution? Or were you just jealous at how public perception increased for Jordan?

  25. To Malaysian Police Forces, why do i get EMP microwave on my backbone?

    This is done constantly and why am i in a terrorists watchlists for supporting Palestine. Isnt that against Malaysia's Policy?

  26. Typical Palestinians, got no food and complain about the gift food.

  27. The Arabs hate Israel so bad they don't mind sacrificing their people.

  28. Hawaii didnt get any airdrops of food and Aid from biden when its american soil and hawaii needed Help and american homless vets didnt get help either.

  29. How is it a risky operation when only one side has air superiority, with Israel a supposed ally of the US? Or are you admitting that this PR stunt is being done against the wishes of Israel?

  30. Don’t drop those pork sandwiches to Hamas terrorest

  31. Yet they still complained…

  32. We need the money at home here in the US……

  33. Trump is the one that is going to be feeding Israel and Palestin again!!!!!!

  34. B0ombs on one side food on another. This is disgusting!!!!

  35. So risky my foot! They support the perpetrators and they are going to be shot down? They would lose the $14 billion dollars in weapon aid they get. Such a hypocritical state of affairs.

  36. America is playing the innocent to its own public, you are so funny United States of America

  37. I'm waiting to hear biden paraphrasing Kennedy with "'ana filastiniun" or " I am a Palestinian."

  38. If I were US president, because of the crimes they committed against the Jews, I would wait until they were extremely hungry, and order that each package have a big Jewish symbol and state: "This is for the blessed Jewish lovers among you, who hope for a Jewish world. Eating this meal is your celebration of your love and support for we Jews.

  39. As of Jan 23 2024 "Israel has been the largest cumulative recipient of U.S. foreign aid since its founding, receiving about $300 billion (adjusted for inflation) in total economic and military assistance." Its all for Israel no one else. They have FREE HEALTHCARE, FREE EDUCATION, & Multiple homes & citizenships all over the world etc etc. Gaza has none of these things & everything destroyed, no electricity n0 water no homes, NO FOOD & not even a country. This $300B doesn't include the last round of $B to Israel. They now have Gaza under siege and wont let any food or supplies in but very very few trucks. Their extremists right wing have blocked the entrances to Gaza and the police wont move them. They claim they are letting food in but the Gazans are starving and in famine. The US will send the food to them and the US planes are already there. We can afford to air drop food for starving maimed crippled and tortured people while we try to work out a longer term solution. Peace is cheaper than war on our tax dollars.

  40. Dios bendiga al pueblo palestino ❤

  41. Ungrateful muslim. 🤢🤮
