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.

Just want to dispose of a few of the weak and transparent excuses being put forward to defend @bbcnews @channel4news and the documentary. Here are seven.

Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
1. 'It is difficult to verify news coming out of Gaza'.

If you know this then how can you justify spending £400k on a documentary knowing you will likely produce unverifiable Hamas propaganda? In other words the BBC is contradicting its own decision making.
2. 'There are no foreign journalists in Gaza - so we couldn't check the information. We did ask nicely several times if the family was Hamas.'

The information was found by a bloke living 10 miles from BBC HQ who had nothing more than a computer and motivation to find the truth. Image

We all know that @bbcnews put on a documentary that was fronted by the son of a senior Hamas official. The BBC was caught, took it down - and had its reputation shattered.

So now I want to talk about @Channel4News

Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
But I start in Gaza - before October 7.

I go back to at least 2022, when Abdullah the son of the Hamas official - must have been just 10 or 11 and was already in training.

Practicing speaking propaganda points to camera about how Gazans 'would never surrender'. Image
The Palestinians are masters in propaganda. And after the October 7 atrocities Hamas urgently needed to change the narrative - so these children were deployed. 1000s of cameras were activated and everyone became a 'journalist'.

Which brings us back to Channel 4 News

As we learn more about more about the BBC documentary on Gaza.

This is an updated thread on who @bbcnews gave £400,000 to for a propaganda documentary that whitewashes Hamas
First - the star of the show Abdullah. This is his father - who works as a senior official in the Hamas government. Image
This is one of the two lead cameramen - celebrating the Hamas slaughter on October 7 Image

An @BBC news thread - for those who do not understand JUST HOW BAD the BBC Hamas propaganda documentary was. There have been several key scoops - and I thought I would bring the issues together.

Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
First of all the big one. The BBC used the son of a Hamas official as its star performer - the narrator of the documentary. A catastrophic failure of editorial standards. For months - BBC's crew follow this child - but doesn't know who the father is (in image below)? No way. Image
In addition - one of the camera crew - who followed the kid around - posted celebrations of the October 7 atrocities. These pro-Hamas agents are the people the BBC paid and relied on for the 'integrity' of their documentary. Image

Dear @bbcnews. No I am not finished. We have yet another problem with your Hamas propaganda documentary.

You know the young chef and her elder sister Nourhan - who appear as one of the subjects in your piece? Image
We already know that their father was a Captain in the police force (you know - the people who enforce the laws of Hamas). And we also know he spent two years in an Israeli jail during the first Intifada... Image
Well now it turns out that the sister Nourhan Attallah (playing all sweet in your documentary) posted this on the evening (19:30) of 27 January 2023.... It was a post liked and loved by family and friends. Image

Exclusive:

We have said that @bbcnews has become a propaganda tool of Hamas.

Well here is the proof. Sit down and hold on to something.

Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
We need to talk about the BBC2 documentary run last night about children surviving the Gaza war.

A co-producer was a Palestinian activist - and one of the cameramen the BBC had hired in Gaza had saluted Oct 7. Image
A lot of the content was clearly staged. And the star of the show was a young Gazan boy called Abdullah -

Abdullah is from one of Gaza's affluent families and narrates the hour long documentary. Image
