Joining thousands of others we will shortly be suspending our Twitter activity for 48 hours in protest at the ongoing tolerance of hate speech in this platform.

@jack @Twitter #NoSafeSpaceforJewHate

honestreporting.com/honestreportin…
In recent weeks, we have looked on with dismay as Jews displaying a Jewish symbol have been locked out of their accounts while actual hatred has been allowed to proliferate.
We have seen how antisemites such as Louis Farrakhan have a platform on Twitter, and how celebrities share his clips to an audience of millions.
We have seen how attacks on Israel frequently turn into attacks on Jews.
And we have seen a reluctance on the part of the traditional broadcast media to report on these outbursts of hatred.
We are now saying #NoSafeSpaceForJewHate and walking out of ⁦@Twitter until 9am UK time on Wednesday.

It's now up to Twitter to make a change for the better, and to the media to fully cover this story. Enough is enough. Image

How the media manufactured a “genocide.”
Zach Goldberg breaks down how the world’s most serious crime became a political weapon—and how media outlets helped it happen. 🧵 Image
Mentions of “genocide” in relation to Israel have exploded—far beyond how the media treated actual, recognized genocides in history. Image
In The New York Times, coverage linking Israel and genocide was:
➤ 9x higher than for Rwanda
➤ 6x higher than for Darfur
Let that sink in. Image

“Why hasn’t there been a Palestinian state?”
Let’s talk about the peace deals that could’ve made it happen—and why they were rejected.👇 Image
1️⃣ 1947 – The UN Partition Plan
Palestinians were offered statehood with the most fertile land.
Arab leaders said no. Then 6 Arab states attacked Israel.
Israel survived. Image
2️⃣ 1967 – Khartoum Summit & UN Resolution 242
After the Six-Day War, the UN proposed land-for-peace.
The Arab League responded:
“No peace. No recognition. No negotiations.”
End of conversation. Image

📰 No casualties. No bullet wounds. No injuries. No massacres.
But that's not how the media reported it...🧵 Image
The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation's drone footage showed zero casualties, the IDF confirmed it, but media outlets still ran Hamas quotes as fact. Image
Image
Image
Why the influx of disinformation? Because Hamas is desperate to sabotage an aid system that bypasses its control, so it invented atrocities, and the media helped legitimize them. Image

🚚 Aid finally makes it to Gazans—but the headlines still miss the real story.🧵 Image
The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation successfully delivered aid to thousands of Gazans. Israel only fired warning shots to keep order—no injuries, no deaths. Media spin? “Israel opens fire.” Image
Image
Then Gazans stormed a flour stockpile. Hamas fired into the crowd, killing five, and boasted about it on Telegram. Media spin? “Deadly break-in at UN warehouse.” No mention of Hamas hoarding the aid or pulling the trigger.

Despite what this photo caption says, it does not show Dr. Alaa al-Najjar, the mother of children killed in an airstrike.

The photo in @guardian actually shows al-Najjar's niece (left) and brother-in-law with an as yet unidentified woman. 🧵 Image
We know this is the niece as she is identified as such in a @Reuters video interview from inside the hospital.

Despite this, Reuters is currently selling the erroneously captioned photo that The Guardian used. Image
So is this Dr. Alaa al-Najjar in this @Reuters photo, a pediatrician who wears a niqab and is so strictly religious that she was allowed to train in medicine, and still had time to give birth to 10 children in little more than 11 years?

Because the media won't ask the questions. Image

Because for @SkyNews' @AlexCrawfordSky, the barbaric terrorism against Israelis on Oct. 7, including the burning and mutilation of babies, was all just an overblown and exaggerated excuse for Israel to carry out a "genocide."

And the @guardian column? There's more. 🧵
"Israel is executing a 'final solution' in Gaza," according to Arwa Mahdawi in @guardian.

Absolutely sickening: Misappropriating the language of the Holocaust, Mahdawi effectively compares Israel to the Nazis. Image
Has pro-Palestinian speech really been "suppressed?" Have Palestinians been "systematically dehumanized" by western media?

Judging by the tsunami of anti-Israel criticism in media, social media & in the public square, some of it antisemitic, that clearly isn't the case. Image
