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.

Dear @AlJazeera and western journalists who have been acting as Hamas propagandists today (like @AlexCrawfordSky from @skynews and of course @pressfreedom)

I have a question about Ismael Al-Ghoul who was arrested today.

Thread ⬇️⬇️
Thing is all his accounts are new - all very suspicious so I went looking for an old one. And I found one.

I used software to conform the identity from images. And this is the journalist Ismail Alghoul. He stopped using the account in November - when he opened his new one.

And guess what I found on the account of this arrested 'Al Jazeera' journalist...

Things like this - on the eve of the 2021 conflict - glorifying / threatening / promising rocket fire on Israel Image

I want to tell you a story.

Last week the BBC Verify team posted a demonising report that accused Israel of abusing Palestinian medics.

The BBC Verify story relied on six separate sources. I think you should meet the people @bbcnews rely on:

Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
The first is Soha Ibrahim. Her social media accounts are full of anti-Israel venom. On X she even liked posts that celebrated Oct 7 and support Hamas.

This woman is not a random bystander. She WORKS for the BBC. Image
The second was Marie-Jose Al Azzi - another BBC employee.

Here she is openly calling on Shakira to boycott Israel Image

Exclusive: On Friday BBC Verify ( @bbcnews @bbcworld) published an article about the aid convoy deaths in Gaza.

I was already working on a piece about BBC bias over other toxic articles from last week.

There is something truly rotten at the BBC. 1/14

Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
To blame Israel for the deaths the BBC Verify piece relies heavily on a Gazan journalist Mahmoud Awadeyah who tells the BBC that the Israelis fired at the civilians.

But Awadeyah works for Tasnim News which is tied to the Iranian IRGC - Iran's special armed forces. 2/14 Image
And Awadeyah is not shy about his feelings. His social media is full of pro-terrorist messaging.

Did the BBC not 'verify' anything before using this man as a source? Here he is praising the terrorist attack on the 27 Jan 2023 which left 7 Israelis dead. 3/14 Image

The @washingtonpost ran an article about the journalists killed during the Hamas conflict.

My own research suggests whoever put it together engaged in deception

The end result is that the WP lies to its readers and spread raw Hamas propaganda 1/9

Thread
⬇️⬇️
The WP ran its article about 78 Gaza journalists who it holds up as heroes.

1. It used the list provided by @pressfreedom
2. It chose seven journalists to profile
3. It searched their social media.

But I did my own research on this a month ago so know the WP is lying . 2/9
For example. 50% of those in the CPJ list worked for Hamas or Islamic Jihad. Some even put out a 'call to arms' on the morning of Oct 7.

The WP missed them all.

How did the WP randomly select seven journos to profile and avoid all those who work for terrorist groups? 3/9 Image

You must have seen Doctor Ghassan Abu-Sittah.

1. Held up as a hero surgeon
2. Used as a key witness against Israeli actions in Gaza.
3. He has been on @SkyNews , @CNN , @BBCWorld , @LBC etc etc

The big question is why? Does nobody do any background research?

Thread ⬇️⬇️
First stop Oct 17. The night an Islamic Jihad rocket hit the Baptist Hospital.

Abu Sittah said he was there & called it a Israeli war crime.He also said as he moved from the op theatre to the emergency dept he saw bodies of children piled up. How? Where?
But problems with the doctor go way beyond confusing and mistaken witness statements. Here he is in 2019 sitting next to the PFLP terrorist Leila Khaled. The event was to honour a PFLP leader Maher Al-Yemani. Image

Exclusive: Hamas propaganda channels claim Israel is targeting journalists.

I have just published a new report showing that the entire story is an unsupportable lie.

Everyone running this story is pushing a modern day antisemitic conspiracy.

THREAD
⬇️⬇️⬇️
There are two lists one contains about 110 names. The other about 70.

Using every OSINT tools I could find, I managed to find 93% of these people online.

And the report shows that almost none are journalists - and journalism had nothing to do with their death.
About half are actually part of Hamas or Islamic Jihad. They are not there to tell you news. They are there - like this one (on both lists) to publish instructions on their Telgram channels telling everyone to pick up a weapon and fight on October 7. Image
