I went to @ucl having been told about a vile, propaganda exhibition they have been displaying in a prominent and central position on campus. It has been there for months and 10000s of students have seen it. THREAD:
There are dozens of exhibits full of distortion and hostile imagery. It is nothing but the type of rancid propaganda campaign that the antisemitic Palestine Solidarity Campaign would produce. It is full of lies and has no place on campus anywhere.
A complaint has been made to the university by students. How do Jewish students feel walking past this vile exhibit everyday? And more recently by @jhoffman1 - who is writing a detailed report on the horrific distortions contained within. This is academia BRAINWASHING students.
The exhibition talks about 'refugees' and 'displacement', but it only talks about non-Jewish refugees. The majority of refugee descendants there are Jewish. What about their displacement? Where are their heirlooms? What about these people? Are their stories not good enough?
Just one example - this exhibit -a letter from 'Palestine' before 1948 'at a time Palestine was still on earth'. It is loaded emotional BS that is designed only as a propaganda weapon - created by academics and openly displayed on a University campus - if only any of it were true
This is the '1948' letter. With a 1957 postmark and sent from the 'Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan'. This is the utter bunkum that academics pass off to our students. This letter is on the UCL campus today - being passed off as a pre-1948 exhibit, just to get people to hate Israel.
UCL need to immediately remove this vile & disgraceful propaganda exercise They must ask serious questions of the academics that put it together and the people who gave it a green light. UCL have history. It is time for them to STOP brainwashing students with lies & propaganda.

Exclusive: Mohsen Mahdawi is a Palestinian in Vermont fighting deportation.

His supporters think he is a man of peace. We found recent footage that completely destroys that image.

Mohsen says one thing in English - and something very different in Arabic.

Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
Last July, along with Vermont based @RaychFeldman - we published a detailed exposé into Mohsen Mahdawi.

Our piece uncovered a history of support for terrorism - a family full of terrorists - and signs of a fabricated backstory intended to create sympathy for him in the west.
Mohsen is facing deportation but continues to fight through appeals. He has amassed a large following of supporters.

Some ignore the evidence and still see a peacemaker. Others back him not because of who he is, but because opposing Trump is reason enough.

Exclusive: The Archbishop of Canterbury just went on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land.

What she did there was absolutely disgraceful.

Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
We have to start with context. Just before she left, she visited the Nova exhibition in London.

It is a place to bear witness and she met survivors and bereaved family members of the October 7 atrocities.

Which makes what follows impossible to explain or forgive. Image
It is not just the Jews she has betrayed. She is misleading British Christians too.

She said nothing about the Islamist oppression that Palestinian Christians themselves identify as one of the greatest threats facing their community.

Instead she blamed everything on the Jews.

The attack on British Jews is relentless.

The uproar over a property event in a synagogue in Edgware highlights the continued squeezing of Jewish life out of the UK.

Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
You may respond:
“But, but settlements.”

And I will say this:

If you have become emotionally invested in arguments over "disputed territory" property being sold at a London venue, then you have fallen into a very well-prepared trap.
Ask yourself a simple question:

If you were not personally looking to buy property in Israel, why did you even hear about this event at all?

Because extremist activist groups manufactured a spectacle around it.

Last week I was sent an image of a pro-Palestine stall at Cambridge Market Square.

Not angry students. Not masked radicals. Rather elderly white women encouraging strangers to boycott Israel.

So yesterday I went to Cambridge to hear what they were selling.

Thread ⬇️⬇️ Image
The stall was bigger yesterday - but the same women were also there. I looked over the material and listened for a while - as one activist tried to explain to people how the Arabs had always considered themselves Palestinians -

Newsflash - this was a big fat lie.
Eventually the same woman came over to me. I did not want to confront her - I did not seek an argument.

I just wanted to understand what it was she was selling - so I played as someone there to be educated.

We spoke for about twenty minutes. Everything I was told was false.

We all heard the "tortured toddler" story - it went viral. A demonising claim about Israeli soldiers.

So I did what no mainstream outlet appears to have done. I examined the evidence!

And the whole thing soon fell apart.

Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
First (as I posted last week) I found the father’s Facebook page. His profile pic is of him holding a firearm.

The account even references military training - in Gaza, that means affiliation with a terrorist group.

The Palestinians want you to think he just took a wrong turn. Image
All the media stories pushed the same line. He wanted to go shopping, but took a wrong turn.

This is the area he was stopped. Open fields. No shops. No residential confusion.

At what point does someone realise they are not heading towards groceries? Why no media pushback? Image

Exclusive: Why is it that when Israel kills terrorists, global media has a habit of turning them into innocent figures who must be protected?

Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
On March 28, Israel @IDF struck a car carrying Hezbollah terrorists. Since then global media has ran a campaign to paint those inside as innocent journalists.

They said Israel did not give them any evidence. But for some reason none of them bothered to look for any themselves.
I am not even focusing on the main target - Ali Shoeib. I found this on the Facebook page of Mohammed Ftouni. He is on the right: Image
