While his work has gained the attention of various media outlets,the article critiques his credibility,labeling him a &#8220;performative liar&#8221; who deletes accounts when caught in falsehoods. Hamad has been accused of spreading misinformation, including a bizarre allegation that American aid workers intentionally trapped gazans in a pit during a sugar distribution, which was sensationalized and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/fact-check-viral-image-claims-there-is-no-delta-variant-test\/\" title=\"FACT CHECK: Viral Image ... There Is No Delta Variant Test\">widely shared online<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>His posts tend to blend emotional prose with controversial statements, some of which have been debunked by organizations such as the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation. The article emphasizes the dangers of uncritically sharing such claims and reflects on the broader duty of the media in validating sources before amplifying their narratives. The situation illustrates how misinformation can proliferate amidst conflict, with Hamad&#8217;s stories reflecting his desperate quest for attention and creating a challenge for truth amid the chaos.

I carried my family in my right hand and my pen in my left&mdash;the pen that no army in the world can break. And while I played with my pen, one family member slipped away. But their slipping was an ascent. Then the second slipped away too.

Then came a claim that simply couldn&rsquo;t be believed: that American aid workers were using sophisticated devices to trap Gazans for their own amusement.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The price of sugar in Gaza is extremely high, and the Americans involved in the American aid know this very well. What happened today is one of the worst crimes ever committed,&rdquo; Hamad said in a Monday post.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Read carefully what I&rsquo;m about to say: as soon as the first wave of American aid arrives, people rush to get sugar first. Today, the Americans deliberately placed the sugar in a separate area. Then, they dug a deep pit just before the sugar zone, covered it with nylon, and lightly sprinkled it with dirt so that no one would see it or notice,&rdquo; he continued.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The starving reached the sugar first, and seven people fell into the pit. Then a bulldozer came and buried them alive,&rdquo; he added.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Meanwhile, a man in his fifties was returning from the aid area, nearly collapsing. I held him, and he said to me: &lsquo;I&rsquo;d rather die of hunger than go back to that aid&mdash;it&rsquo;s aid of death.&rsquo;&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Yes, that&rsquo;s right &mdash; in a world of constant surveillance, where anyone can whip out a mobile phone and take video of something, the Americans managed to commit an appalling war crime by trapping Gazans in a ditch and then burying them alive. This sick accusation sounds like Wile E. Coyote stuff, only apparently in real life. Yet, according to an <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.is\/2025.06.30-212055\/https:\/\/x.com\/OmarHamadD\/status\/1939766718576173101#selection-591.0-591.827\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">archived version<\/a> of it taken later in the day on Monday, it had garnered over 22,000 views and 474 reposts.<\/p>\n<p>This wasn&rsquo;t the only time Hamad had made such a preposterous allegation, either: He&rsquo;d previously said that the drug <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/one-person-dead-first-grade-teacher-now-facing-federal-drug-charges-life-prison\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">oxycodone<\/a> was being added to bags of flour, another claim <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.is\/cr1Id\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">that went viral<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This was followed by <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.is\/2025.07.01-104336\/https:\/\/x.com\/OmarHamadD\/status\/1939935875095199980#selection-591.628-591.1139\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">another assertion<\/a> on Tuesday which was even more outlandish: that the Israelis were using a new kind of bomb that was akin to the atom bomb.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Tonight, Israel bombed Gaza with extreme and intense force, using all types of bombs. What was strange is that there was a new sound among the explosions&mdash;one I had never heard before. It felt like we were lab rats,&rdquo; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;But that&rsquo;s nothing new for these swine. After World War II, the U.S. established a committee called the ABCC, and its mission wasn&rsquo;t to treat victims, but to monitor them&mdash;to study radiation symptoms and the effects of the bomb. It was as if the Japanese were experimental animals. One of the researchers even lifted a brain from a Japanese corpse and said: &lsquo;Yesterday, it was rabbits. Today, it&rsquo;s the Japanese.&rsquo;&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Just as Israel dehumanized us before our extermination by calling us &lsquo;human animals,&rsquo; America did the same to the Japanese before the nuclear bomb. People were even asking: Are the Japanese really human? Even the filthy Time magazine wrote: The average Japanese is ignorant and cannot be reasoned with. He may be human, but nothing proves it,&rdquo; he continued. &ldquo;What I want to say is that anything you see in the media about America being against Israel, or about Trump insulting Netanyahu, is pure lies and serves their agenda.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>I don&rsquo;t know that this needs to be debunked, but the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation &mdash; which handles the food distribution in Gaza &mdash; did the job anyway:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">This Hamas propagandist is back with an even more fanciful lie.<\/p>\n<p>Fact check: GHF is not distributing sugar.<\/p>\n<p>While Hamas continues to spread misinformation, we&rsquo;ll continue to distribute free food aid directly to those who need it. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/zE3EIht0Lf\">https:\/\/t.co\/zE3EIht0Lf<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/YFJu90WIse\">pic.twitter.com\/YFJu90WIse<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (@GHFUpdates) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/GHFUpdates\/status\/1940073759194354008?\">July 1, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>They had also debunked some of Hamad&rsquo;s earlier claims in another post:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Next up: a new Hamas-backed social media campaign that GHF flour is laced with&hellip;wait for it&hellip;oxycodone.<\/p>\n<p>The &ldquo;evidence?&rdquo; A few photos, a supposed pharmacist, and a claim conveniently pushed by Hamas-linked accounts.<\/p>\n<p>The flour we distribute is commercially packaged and not&hellip;<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (@GHFUpdates) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/GHFUpdates\/status\/1938737886146204142?\">June 27, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Conveniently, Mr. Hamad seems to have deleted his <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/omarhamadd\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">X account<\/a>, or had it deleted for him, after this debunking &mdash; although not before trying to rebut GHF, rather unsuccessfully.

He is known for being a performative liar who deletes his accounts when confronted with his falsehoods. However, the internet retains everything. His writings have appeared in various publications and have been echoed by numerous journalists, including an article in Irish magazine Image that describes him as &#8220;a Palestinian writer and pharmacist bearing witness to genocide in Gaza.&#8221; While it&#8217;s plausible that he is indeed a writer and pharmacist, the claim of him &#8220;bearing witness&#8221; relies on his honesty. His emotionally charged narratives may have swayed some outlets like Image into believing he seeks attention through dramatic but potentially untrue statements.<\/p>\n<p>Hamad has made several outrageous claims on social media, including one where he alleged that American aid workers were using traps to ensnare Gazans for entertainment purposes. He described an incident where people rushed for sugar during aid distribution only to fall into a concealed pit set by Americans who then buried them alive with a bulldozer-a story so absurd it seems more fitting for cartoon antics than reality.<\/p>\n<p>He also claimed that Israel was using new bomb technology similar to atomic bombs during airstrikes on Gaza. In these statements, he draws parallels between historical events involving Japan after World War II and current perceptions of Palestinians.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the implausibility of his assertions-such as claiming flour distributed by humanitarian organizations was laced with oxycodone-he gained significant attention online before ultimately deleting his account following debunking efforts from organizations like the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF).
