🧵 It's been a year since the terrible #Colleyville Synagogue hostage crisis.
#OTD (Jan 15, 2022), a gunman entered the Congregation Beth Israel synagogue in #Colleyville, Texas, during a Sabbath service.
The gunman’s rants were recorded over the video stream. He warned that he would kill people unless authorities released his “sister” (Aafia Siddiqui). #Colleyville
Aafia Siddiqui is serving an 86-year sentence after being convicted of attempting to kill American military personnel in Afghanistan.
She had made racist comments against Jews and Zionists while on trial in 2010. #Colleyville
Did @BBCNews just give a Hamas-linked "journalist" the stage to justify the Oct. 7 Hamas attacks?
Yes, they did. This appalling excuse for journalism should make the BBC ashamed. 🧵
The BBC portrays Bushra al-Tawil as an innocent “journalist” arrested for merely giving a “talk in a mosque.”
What they omit: Bushra has documented ties to Hamas.
Incredibly, the BBC also allows her to justify the kidnapping of innocent civilians.
To its partial credit, @BBCNews mentions her father, Jamal Al-Tawil, but calls him a “Hamas politician.”
Let’s pause. The UK, where the BBC operates, doesn’t engage in this “political wing” fantasy. Why? Because Hamas is entirely a terrorist group. Period.
Hinkle's posts spread inflammatory misinformation, exploiting the power of outrage for profit.
Remember the precise pager attack that targeted Hezbollah terrorists? Hinkle lied, claiming Israel targeted civilians, even when Hezbollah confirmed the devices were theirs.
Imagine a society where children are told their purpose is not to live, but to die. How do you build a future when your leaders glorify its destruction?
Loving death isn’t bravery—it’s barbarity. While the rest of the world cherishes life, Hamas weaponizes its people’s suffering.
Why do the WORST human rights abusers escape UN scrutiny?🧵
The UNGA passed 17 resolutions against Israel in 2024. For China, Afghanistan, and others committing egregious abuses? Zero.
The Iranian Regime executed 901 people in 2024, including women and LGBTQ+ individuals. It’s the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism.
Yet, the UNGA passed one resolution against them.
