they're pain killers.
the horror of sending pain killers to a war zone. /s
fucking morons.
edit: and another thing -- so many of you have been fooled by this vilification and politicization of pain killers that it has actually been successfully weaponized against you to such an extent that its hurt the patients that need them and corrupted your sound decision making during elections. this is the opposite of woke.
Of ALL the painkillers the US has at their disposal, they chose precisely the ones that cause crippling addition and deathly withdrawals? And hid them inside flour to... Keep them dry?
Yeah, no.
Best case - someone is smuggling oxy in to make a buck off of opioid addiction. But some think there might be oxy ground up in the flour so that Gazans gain a dependency, and might die from OD or withdrawal symptoms.
and why the fuck would the israelis do that? if they really wanted to fuck with Palestine they would be mixing much worse stuff. this makes no sense whatsoever.
there is only one, unsubstantiated, hamas run, source for this information -- and you're just blindly believing something that doesn't make any damn sense. This is a war of a propaganda and you're just unquestionably believing one side of it.
I personally don't think it is very likely that they are trying to poison Palestinians.
I find it completely unsurprising that someone is smuggling oxy in to make a quick buck.
