Former US Congresswoman and extreme evangelical nationalist Michele Bachmann claimed the real issue in Gaza is people being fed too much, causing them to be fat and obese.

Bachmann was caught by our pals at Right Wing Watch downgrading the horrors within Gaza and blaming their issues on too much food being delivered.

There is being crazy, and many MAGA Christian nationalists are that, but she is a flaming lunatic.

She was voted into Congress of all places in Minnesota and is now the Dean of Regent University's Robertson School of Government, which is terrifying. We have an entire archive of her crazy thoughts spoken aloud.

She says the population of Gaza has grown and followed it up with this.

BACHMANN: The other thing that they've been accused of is famine, that Israel has tried to starve Gazans, when as a matter of fact, their calorie count is over 3,000 calories per person a day from all of the food that's coming in.

And the biggest problem they're dealing with most recently in Gaza is obesity, because so many calories have been coming in in Gaza.

My God.

'Nuff said.

Karoli adds: No. Not 'nuff said. Some facts are in order.

Bachmann is getting her numbers from a report from the Israel Journal of Health Policy Medicine which studied food shipments for seven months from January to July 2024. This report doesn't address the water shortages and overall food insecurity suffered by Palestinians who have seen their infrastructure destroyed, have no homes or infrastructure with which to reach supplies. Moreover, it addresses a seven-month period only, and fails to analyze what food actually reached the Palestinian people.

Food insecurity has eased somewhat according to the World Central Kitchen, but nearly one million Palestinians could still face food insecurity in the months to come.

Michele Bachmann, doing the work of fascists.
