🧵 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
The mainstream coverage of this event minimized the #antisemitic nature of the crime. @BBC @guardian @AP @FBI #Colleyville
#Antisemitic incidents account for the vast majority of religiously motivated hate crimes in the US. #Colleyville
The media are responsible for reporting the full essence behind attacks against American Jews. #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. 🧵 Image
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. Image
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.

Hamas according to Hamas: Part 1🧵 Image
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? Image
Loving death isn’t bravery—it’s barbarity. While the rest of the world cherishes life, Hamas weaponizes its people’s suffering. Image

Why do the WORST human rights abusers escape UN scrutiny?🧵 Image
The UNGA passed 17 resolutions against Israel in 2024. For China, Afghanistan, and others committing egregious abuses? Zero. Image
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. Image

Who Are the Houthis?
...And why is Iran paying them $30 million a month?🧵 Image
The Iranian Regime's funding of the Houthis isn’t charity—it’s strategy. Let’s connect the dots. Image
