From the article: "Before the war, her family would eat a large meal of meat, stuffed vegetables or other traditional dishes on Fridays, Najjar said. “Now we eat peas and rice. We never ate canned peas before the war. Only in this war that has destroyed our lives.”
Hamas attacked Israel on Oct 7th. That's what started this war. After the attack, people in Gaza celebrated like a major victory in war had been achieved.
Japan attacked us on Dec 7th. That's what started that war. After that attack, people in Japan celebrated like a major victory in war had been achieved.
Japan decimated Nanjing in 1937 after attacking China for no reason. After that attack, people in Japan celebrated the rape and murder of 300,000 Chinese.
At the end of WW2, the blockade in Japan had people near starvation and were down to eating grass and bark on trees. If Japan had not attacked China and the US, they would still eat large meals.
Now, if Hamas, which is the ELECTED government of Gaza, had not attacked Israel, this person would still eat their large meals and not rice and peas.
Moral of the story: Hamas and Japan caused this suffering.
BTW, I fail to feel bad for the narcissism of "we used to eat better than many other people and now we eat like poor people."
