We have right to be angry. Three points that need to be made about the dangerous media misreporting on the Islamist marches taking place in our cities

Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
1. All four of our main news outlets @BBCNews @SkyNews @Channel4News @itvnews - all reported that this was a march about a ceasefire.

They are lying. As always 'free Palestine' and 'from the river to the sea' were the most heard chants. Neither are about ceasefires. Image
If the people are calling for the destruction of Israel - why is our media calling it peaceful? Or pretending they only want a ceasefire? Why is everyone running scared of upsetting Islamist groups - even to the point of hiding their extremism?
2. And we have right to be angry. This is Ismail Patel - leader of Friends of Al Aqsa who organised and spoke at the demo (left). He has a history of pro-Hamas commentary - and on the right is an image of him with the Hamas leadership. Image
He is not alone. Leaders from the two other Islamist groups that organised the demo have been to Gaza and met with the Hamas leadership. Both the MAB and PFB have long been associated with Hamas and /or the Muslim Brotherhood. Image
Why are Sky, the BBC, ITV and Channel 4 *ALL* ignoring this vitally important fact. Can you imagine - for a second - them describing a march organised by far-right groups as 'peaceful' without referencing the political extremism of the organisers? It would never happen.
3. So we have a march organised by Islamist groups who have had clear ties to Hamas - they put 100,000 on the street - everyone is singing about the destruction of Israel - and the BBC etc want to lie to us and tell us it is peaceful...
Well this guy has been there every week. Leading chants from inside the march - he even led a chant of 'from the river to the sea'.
Why not ask him? His name is Mohammed Qasim. On the 7th October he was happily posting pro-terrorist messages - with joyful comments about 'the end of Israel'. He even sent Hamas words of encouragement - at the time they were slaughtering innocent Israelis. Image
Now look at the responses that his pro-Hamas post received. 32 responses - all 'likes' or 'love'. There was no dissent at all. Although our media won't ever tell you this - the pro-terrorist support is not an outlier - it is mainstream in these circles. Image
Finally. He sang 'from the river to the sea' at the demo. Our media say it is peaceful.

But he is telling us here exactly what he means. Posted 7 Oct. We see clearly what the phrase means. It means genocide. The sea is there, and the Jews are being forced into it. @metpoliceuk Image
This is scary - and not just for the Jews. Where is our Media? Where are our police? Where is the CPS?

Why are those institutions meant to protect us running scared of upsetting Islamist extremist groups?

Their lies protect Hamas supporters.

Why won't they do their jobs!

And here we go again.
@bbcnews has just promoted a boycott-Israel campaign.

It inflated a non-event into an article, and then misled readers by whitewashing the activists involved.

Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
First, BBC News chose to run a pro-BDS article.

It then cited the Scottish Palestine Solidarity Campaign without telling readers that SPSC’s leader was convicted of anti-Jewish racism just weeks ago.

This omission is inexcusable. Image
The article goes on to conceal the anti-Israel bias of the United Nations Human Rights Council and withholds key information about the political activism of the other NGO it relies on. Every single player involved is whitewashed.

Readers were materially misinformed. Image

BBC Verify got caught doing something shameless. They published the same Gaza “investigation” twice and pushed it as fresh “verification”.
My latest - BBC Verify does Groundhog day.
Thread: ⬇️⬇️⬇️
Put the two articles side by side and it’s unavoidable. Once in October 25, then again January 2026. Same authors. Same framing. Same story. This isn’t verification @bbcnews. It’s anti-Israel recycling. Image
It goes from simply bad to embarrassing. The opening paragraphs follow the same sequence, almost line by line. This is the BBC’s flagship “Verify” unit.
And they’re doing student activist-level journalism Image

New report - published today.

If you care about antisemitism, or are in a space fighting against it, you really need to read this.

Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
You may have seen the term "anti-Palestinian racism" (APR). If you are not paying attention, you should.

APR isn’t “anti-racism”. It’s a political weapon designed to neutralise antisemitism safeguards and bully institutions into activist ideology.
I traced its history. I found out where & why it was created, and my new report lays out exactly how it evolved.

What you need to know is this: APR relabels reality. Antisemitism protections are dropped. Zionism becomes racism. Disagree with fictional narratives? Racist!

Exclusive: A detailed investigation exposes how false claims on @Wikipedia fabricate history - then get laundered into activist and media campaigns used to smear elected officials and demand resignations
Thread ⬇️⬇️
In Sept 2025, 250 U.S. legislators visited Israel. At the end of a harrowing day touring Oct 7 massacre sites, they went to Ofakim - a southern town brutally attacked by Hamas terrorists. There, they planted 50 trees - one for each state: a simple act of respect and remembrance. Image
U.S. legislators visited a staunch ally emerging from a difficult conflict. Within hours, activists and media outlets launched false genocide claims - and a story spread accusing them of planting trees atop a depopulated Palestinian village. Image

There is a sustained Islamist-driven global disinformation campaign portraying Israel as hostile to Christianity.

Before repeating it, it is worth examining what is really happening to Christian communities across the Middle East.

Thread ⬇️⬇️
Let's begin in Syria. Christians in Syria used to make up about 10% of the population - today, half have been driven out. Ancient communities devastated by war and Islamism. Syria is now run by an Islamist with a Salafi-jihadist past - who promotes nation wide sharia law. Image
How about Iraq? In the 1950s they forced the Jews out, now it is the Christians' turn. Once home to about 1.5 million Christians, most have gone. Church bombings, ISIS genocide, intimidation, and emigration - Islamism shattered one of the world’s oldest Christian populations. Image

Exclusive: A new investigation tracking stolen IDF vehicles through Gaza on October 7, alongside newly uncovered footage, reveals that al-Shifa Hospital received far more Israeli hostages than previously acknowledged.

Thread: ⬇️⬇️⬇️
For 2 years, global media outlets denied that al-Shifa functioned as a Hamas hub.

This thread shows:
• stolen IDF vehicles
• multiple hostage convoys
• timestamps
• deliberate misreporting
• hostage vehicles at al-Shifa Hospital
I start at the Nahal Oz base. On Oct 7 seven female surveillance soldiers were taken hostage - four were placed into a single stolen IDF jeep.

But one piece of footage captured the registration plate (703-145) - this mattered - it allows the vehicle to be tracked inside Gaza! Image
