other lies that were debunked today:

'Hamas murders and beheads 40 babies!!!' - nope, a total lie made up by some IDF goon that was propagated by a single sloppy 'journalist

'They murdered and r*ped an innocent German girl - again, nope, she is alive and being treated at a hospital in Gaza, in touch with her family. And given the previous info, I can speculate that maybe she was shot by IDF and saved by Hamas.

Every zionist accusation is an admission.

    The bottom line is that, were the situation reversed, the rave would be reported to have been "filled with military aged males."

    Links? Ive not seen the babies one first hand, though the others yes. Likewise, I know the rave had some police shooting at resistance fighters from what looked like a carpark or something, but that's all I've seen from that too.

    I've also been offline a while so may be missing the latest

    Will update if/as I come across them

    hamas statement re: babies plus additional spoilers cos idk how to unfuck nested spoilers

    💬 Statement by 🟢 #Hamas regarding the allegations of targetting children:

    In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

    The Palestinian resistance does not target children, and Western media outlets must ensure accuracy and not blindly side with the zionist narrative filled with lies and slanders.

    We, in the Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas, firmly deny the fabricated allegations promoted by some Western media outlets, which unprofessionally adopt the zionist narrative full of lies and slanders against our Palestinian people and their resistance. The latest of these was the claim of killing children, beheading them, and targeting civilians. We consider this adoption and bias towards the zionist narrative without verification as nothing but a media downfall in an attempt to cover up the crimes of the occupation and its massacres committed day and night in Gaza.

    These actions amount to war crimes and genocide by targeting civilians, cutting off electricity, water, food, and medical supplies.

    The Palestinian resistance and Al-Qassam Brigades targeted the zionist military and security system in the Al-Aqsa Storm battle, which are legitimate targets. At the same time, they aimed to avoid civilians. Many field video clips witnessed this, and many settlers spoke about it with documented testimoniesthrough the media.

    The biased Western media outlets, which favor the zionist narrative, failed to mention the extent of zionist criminality against our people in the Gaza Strip, which completely wiped out entire neighborhoods, bombed residential buildings over the heads of their residents, leading to the killing of 950 Palestinian civilians so far, including 260 children and 230 women, all killed without prior warning.

    This zionist crime can only be described as genocide and war crimes. We, therefore, call on these Western media outlets to be objective and professional in reporting and covering the events of the zionist aggression and not to blatantly and blindly adopt the zionist narrative.

      Looking at the evidence, Hamas rocked up with weapons, the Police/Security (Likely police with the armoured vehicle) immediately opened fire rather than stand down, and all hell broke loose. Could Hamas have handled it better...hard to say. It's a bit unfair to expect the paramilitary militia to be the expert at de-escalation versus police, but I imagine Israeli cops are more akin to US "Shoot first, shoot later, shoot some more, and then when everybody's dead try and ask a question or two" Cops than the (still very bad) peelite model.

      Whatever the truth, what a mess, the penalty for being a dumbass hippie with no political brain shouldn't be death. Shame no one in the media are weeping over bombed hospitals and schools in Gaza.

      Why are police getting involved in a military matter? Where the fuck is their training? Your role as police should be to protect the public first and live out your fantasy of dying as a martyr afterwards. You don't protect the public by opening fire against overwhelming odds. That risks not only your own life but the life of people that you should be protecting.

        Their training is enforced conscription tbh.

        Idk, it could also be event security I'm not exactly referencing the clips while typing this. Likewise, idk that being armed in that situation exactly leads to a great outcome for you either

      This is the one about the babies. The only evidence is that one soldier said so

        Wrong link? There's mention of "My heart is broken. My baby brother is gone." referencing an adult, but that's it?

    I’d like to believe this, but do we have better sources for this than a twitter post by some dude who whines about LGBT decadence?

    The claim about babies is obvious bullshit.

    And despite there being no evidence that any of these claims were true, and in some cases, overwhelming evidence they're not, these are still going to be cited as to why Israel is justified, just because, even though they aren't true, they still FEEL true to the people who parrot them.
