Woeful misinformation being peddled by @trtworld, and recycled by @YahooNews.
1. Israeli planes have been striking *Hamas assets* in Gaza, not all of Gaza. Citing @AlJazeera should be a hint as to the credibility of the claim.
2. An Israeli missile did indeed hit a school in Gaza in mid-August. The missile, fired late at night when no students were around, did not explode.
A critical, even more important, point is whether terrorists were using the school for cover, in defiance of international law.
3. The tried-and-tested Hamas tactic of using schools, homes and hospitals for cover results in fewer terrorist deaths and the tragic death of innocents - something Hamas is responsible for under int'l law. The @Telegraph failed to disclose this vitally important context.
4. And that Telegraph headline is *not* from this year - deceitfully mislabeled as 23 June 2020 - it's actually from six years ago, when a war was being waged between Israel and Hamas terrorists in Gaza.

1/ Reading Sally Hayden's description in @IrishTimes of her time in two south Lebanese villages, you'd think the IDF attacked them without cause.
Her own video footage includes this billboard of a "martyr commander."
And there's more. 🧵
2/ Another image from a Lebanese village, possibly another "martyr."
Note the logo in the top left corner, which appears to be that of Hezbollah.
3/ One of the villages is Ayta al-Shaab. Even a cursory internet search reveals that the IDF said it had destroyed 103 terror targets, including 51 tunnel shafts & 9 rocket launchers, with tunnels reaching approx 25m deep.
Two top execs – Tim Davie & Deborah Turness – forced to quit after a bombshell dossier exposed bias and even doctored footage of Trump.
You’d think that would spark real change, right?
WRONG. 🧵🎥
2/ Instead of accountability, BBC’s highest-paid “journalists” – and even some of its famous former ones – are playing the victims.
From Jeremy Bowen to Emily Maitlis, the reactions say it all. 👇
3/ First up: @jeremybowen.
Rather than own up to the damage he’s done to the BBC’s credibility, he previously said he “doesn’t regret one thing” about his false reporting of the Al-Ahli Hospital blast in 2023.
That lie spread across the world. No regrets. No shame. 🎥
1/ Who are the hypocrites who signed onto a boycott of @nytimes, demanding the paper retract its seminal piece on Hamas' Oct. 7 sexual assaults & rapes, “Screams Without Words?”
Some of them call themselves women's rights activists. Me too? Unless you're a Jew... 🧵

♀️ dream hampton (yes, she stylizes her name without capitals): A self-described feminist, she was the executive producer for the film “Surviving R. Kelly,” which brought to light the sexual assault allegations against the singer & ultimately led to his conviction.

♀️ Mariame Kaba: co-founded Chicago Taskforce on Violence against Girls. Also co-chaired a committee at the Chicago Metropolitan Battered Women’s Network & served on the editorial board of the journal, Violence Against Women.

1/ WHITEWASH: Responding to our complaint, @MetroUK has stealthily removed the parts of its story that clearly incriminated a Palestinian chess club in Lebanon as terror supporters, as well as @christian_aid's financial support.
2/ ▪️REMOVED: The photo of terrorist leaders Sinwar and Nasrallah on the chess club wall.
▪️ERASED: This paragraph, where the chess club director proudly acknowledges the terrorist portraits (one of which Metro's correspondent mistakenly identifies as Ismail Haniyeh).
3/ ▪️AMENDED: A reference to being "martyred" (a favorite term for extremists) now reads as "killed."
▪️SOFTENED: The false implication that the IDF was directly involved in the Sabra & Shatila massacres now says that the Lebanese militia responsible was an Israeli ally.
