We professionally scrutinised this "investigation” by
@nytimes.

"There is no evidence that Israel struck or directly targeted the apartment buildings"

This should have been the headline but no, @evanhill produced a video that has the hallmark of investigation bias.
We watched the video and it feels as if the investigation team was working towards a predefined outcome that Israel's actions "could be a war-crime".
No new evidence came to light from this investigation, so it is hardly what we would class as an investigation, rather an attempt to frame already available information as something new and sinister. The NYT appears to be taking sides framing Israel as the aggressor.
The @nytimes have also been dishonest in saying "weeks after the attacks and after repeated questioning from the Times the military said that what they'd actually hit was an underground command center".
The Independent reported on the "underground military infrastructure" on 24 May 2021, so clearly it was not weeks before the military made this statement.
And using @amnesty's Saleh Hijazi as an "expert" is problematic, he was using an image of a terrorist as his Facebook profile picture, showed support for Khader Adnan, senior member of Palestinian Islamic Jihad , and shared an antisemitic poster on FB.

This appears to be disinformation. It was reported hours ago that "initial investigations carried out by the Israeli and Palestinian security forces indicated that the shooting was not carried out by Israeli settlers but rather by Palestinians in an internal incident"
"He was shot by Palestinians, and that the incident was criminal."

This video was edited and manipulated to appear to be showing Israeli soldiers using a child as a human shield. We located a longer version of the video. In reality quite the opposite took place, let us present the facts.
This incident took place on 23 December 2016 during the weekly demonstration in Kafr Qaddum where Arabs march towards a Jewish settlement, riot, burn tires and throw rocks at soldiers.
On that day, the Israeli security services ambushed the rioters but only a child, Mumin Murad Shteiwi (مؤمن مراد شتيوي), 7 at the time, was caught. The others escaped.

This is disinformation. It's well known that the people behind this horrendous fire-bombing are 3 Israeli-Arab men who misidentified the boy's home for a Jewish one. They have been arrested and charged.

This video which was artfully mashed up and shared thousands of times on social media is disinformation and distortion of facts.

We looked into this, here is what we found.
We traced the source materials for this propaganda video; it is from B'tselem articles and videos from June 2017 & May 2018. However there are significant omissions.
- The fence and gate was put in place because of routine stone throwing at civilians, cars passing by, the bus stop across the street and border police. There was also a fatal stabbing attack of a civilian there, Genadi Kaufman, in 2015.

We were alerted to antisemitic tweets that have been made in 2014 by Twitter account @sarahjoe93 allegedly owned by Mia Khalifa. We decided to investigate and we can say with certainty that we can link @sarahjoe93 to Mia Khalifa who is now tweeting from @miakhalifa
A thread on online #OSINT investigation

Sarah Joe appears to be Mia Khalifa's birth name and 93 refers to the year she was born in.

WHOIS records show that the Website miakhalifa[.]com was registered to a Sarah Obrien.

"Mia Khalifa" trademark is owned by a Sarah Joe Obrien
The account @sarahjoe93 is now protected and its profile information and tweets have been deleted. A search on the Internet Archive Website suggest that this took place any time between Sat, 15 Aug 2020 00:09:13 GMT and Fri, 02 Oct 2020 10:11:17 GMT.

As we showed you, the current video circulating which falsely attempts to show Bassam al-Kiswani, 11, being arrested by Israeli police is disinformation. But it gets worse. This child appears in a video footage that advocates for terrorist acts.
This video is of Bassam. It was found on his mother's Facebook. He is seen in a child’s bedroom & he was apparently being coached to draw a knife from his trousers & make stabbing motions. The song for the video appear to show support for terrorism & “sacrificing my soul & blood”
We discovered other disturbing posts on Basam's mother Facebook page including support for violence, terrorism, and a one-state.
