.@SunTimesIreland op-ed attacks Israel over #Eurovision2019 suggesting that the Irish broadcaster "should bring back news reports from the occupied territories" yet falsely claims that journalists would be restricted by Israeli authorities. What nonsense. thetimes.co.uk/article/boycot… Image
There are no restrictions on movement for foreign journalists entering the West Bank. Foreign journalists can enter Gaza via the Erez Crossing dependent on Hamas permission on the other side. How do you think so much footage comes out? It's thanks to Israeli press freedom.
In addition, Irish journalists will find that the only restrictions on their reporting are from the Palestinian side which arrests their own journalists and intimidates others to try to ensure negative stories about Hamas and PA behavior never see the light of day.

Meet Pulitzer Prize winner Mosab Abu Toha. He justifies the kidnapping of Israelis on Oct. 7.

We aren't going to congratulate him for his prize. Instead, we're going to ask @PulitzerPrizes whether they bothered to check his social media.

Because we did, and it's not pretty. 🧵 Image
@PulitzerPrizes Emily Damari, an Israeli civilian, was shot twice and abducted from her home on Kibbutz Kfar Aza on Oct. 7.

Hamas held her for 471 days. But Mosab Abu Toha claims she was a "soldier" and questions how Damari could be a hostage. Image
@PulitzerPrizes Hamas held Agam Berger hostage with none of the rights due to a prisoner who has gone through a legal process.

But that doesn't matter to Mosab Abu Toha. Because no Israeli could be a hostage in his eyes. Image

🚨 Israel identified Gazan photojournalist Hassan Eslaiah as a Hamas terrorist.

But @AP is still selling his photos in what legal experts say may be considered material/financial support of a designated foreign terrorist org in violation of US law that prohibits such conduct. 🧵 Image
@AP Eslaiah’s specific photos of the Oct. 7 atrocities inside Israel have been removed from @AP's platform.

Whether he still gets royalties when his remaining photos are purchased is unclear, but the credit he gets on a respected news outlet is certainly a reputation booster. Image
@AP Either way, @AP can still make money off of Eslaiah's propaganda for Hamas and is the only Western agency that still platforms his tainted work.

@Reuters and @GettyImages have already removed his content due to HonestReporting’s public campaigns.

The @nytimes recently ran a glowing profile of Twitch streamer Hasan Piker.
What didn’t make the cut?
His antisemitism, support for terror groups, and unapologetic propaganda. 🧵 Image
@nytimes The Times called him “a progressive mind in a body made for the manosphere.”
What they left out: Piker has a long history of antisemitic rhetoric. Image
@nytimes The Times framed Piker’s hate as mere “criticism of Israel” and “norm-challenging.”
He called Orthodox Jews “inbred.”
That’s not dissent—it’s bigotry.

Louis Theroux’s new BBC ‘Settlers’ documentary claims impartiality. What it delivers is a slick propaganda film: Israel as aggressor, settlers as sociopaths, Palestinians as voiceless victims. Let’s talk about what Theroux really chose to show—and what he left out. 🧵
2/ October 7 is barely mentioned. When it is, it’s framed as a pretext for settlement expansion. A massacre becomes a motive. Civilians butchered in their homes are brushed aside to serve Theroux’s storyline.
3/ He interviews Israeli “critics”—activists who say Israel never wanted peace. Not one mention of the many peace offers Palestinian leaders rejected. It’s not an exploration. It’s a rigged debate.

🧵 1/ The @nytimes just profiled Twitch streamer Hasan Piker, nephew of Young Turks founder Cenk Uygur. Apparently antisemitism runs in the family—not that you'd know it from this glowing piece labeling him a "progressive." Yes, the guy who called Hamas massacres "resistance." Image
2/ The NYT goes to great lengths to sanitize Piker’s bigotry, claiming he "criticized the Israeli government" and "challenged norms." Apparently, calling Orthodox Jews "inbred" and dehumanizing a Jew who disagreed with him as a "bloodthirsty pig dog" are just norm-challenging. Image
3/ NYT calls Piker’s antisemitism mere "diatribes against the Zionist movement"—an absurdly tame way to describe a man who excused Hamas's rape and murder spree on Oct 7, saying "Palestinian resistance is not perfect." Apparently mass rape is a minor misstep to NYT’s new darling. Image

Hamas built an underground city. We built the map.🧵 Image
Our new tool geo-locates 37 miles of Hamas’ tunnel network using open-source data—marking the first interactive map exposing the terror grid beneath Gaza.
Hamas spent 15 years and $1 billion creating this underground empire—built under hospitals, homes, schools, mosques, and graveyards.
Israel gets blamed for destruction.
But Hamas built terror into Gaza’s civilian infrastructure.
