Exclusive: We need to talk about international news media.

Something has gone seriously wrong in the way news is reported from Gaza. Many mainstream outlets have become lying puppets for an Islamist terror group.

I don't want to tell you - I want to show you.

Thread ⬇️⬇️
Over the past few weeks we have seen an explosion of stories coming out of Shifa hospital. From wild dogs eating corpses - to fetuses taken out of dying mothers.

These are not from alt-right newspapers. This wave of fake news - all appear in mainstream media. 2/19 Image
Take this report from @CNN
CNN are not at al-Shifa. So they publish a story based on the account given to them by a doctor there. That is all they have to go on.

So who is Ezz Lulu that CNN rely on so much they report his word as truth? 3/19 Image
Well on 7th Oct as Hamas terrorists slaughtered 1200+ Israelis Ezz Lulu (sorry CNN - a student not a doctor) posted that it was the 'best birthday ever'.

A day later he posted a picture of a hand glider. Do @CNN usually rely on these type of people as reliable sources? 4/19
Image
Image
Dr Khaled Abu Samra is also at Shifa. He was the source of stories such as Israel shooting at those waving white flags - or accusing Israel of stealing - not bringing aid. 5/19 Image
Some doctor! On 7 October Abu Samra posted that 'history is being made' and he liked posts honouring and praising the resistance. On 27 Jan 2023 he & his partner wrote celebratory posts about a terrorist attack outside a synagogue in Jerusalem that killed 7 Israelis. 6/ 19

How about Mohammed Abu Salmiya Head of Shifa Hospital. His stories have been reported everywhere from @bbcnews and @guardian to @cnn and @nytimes
7/19
Image
Image
His family have history. In 2003 his brother was killed in a targeted strike by Israel. His brother was Khalid Abu Salima - a leader in the Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades - the Hamas military arm. 8/19
Image
Image
The Director's timeline is full of support for terrorism. He celebrated attacks in Jerusalem on 23 Nov 22 and 27 Jan 23. He praised terrorists like Udai Tamimi, Ibrahim al-Nabulsi and Khaled Mansour. Why is any western media going near this man? 9/19
Image
Image
How about Munir al-Borsh: Director General of the Palestinian Health Ministry. This man is also quoted everywhere. He was also the source of outrageous stories such as the one about the dogs eating bodies of civilians. 10/19 Image
This man is literally part of the Hamas government. You only have to open his timeline on social media to see posts praising terrorists - such as these two - Fatma Omar An-Najar. and 'Ibrahim Muhammad Al-Shandaghli' - hero of the armed wing of Hamas . Why trust him? 11/19 Image
Dr Mohammed Ghneim has also been all over the news. He is the source of the story about fetuses pulled from dying mothers. He was also sent to the Baptist hospital - where he reported on a massacre that never happened. 12/19 Image
Dr Mohammed Ghneim has a thing for the Hamas engineers, posting in honour of the Hamas bombmakers who slaughtered hundreds. He was also found on his own brother's timeline - praising the 27th Jan Synagogue terrorist attack. 13/19

Image
Image
Image
A few more. Mohamed AlShareif is a medical analyst specialist at al-Shifa - he called 7 October the most beautiful day in a generation.

Mohammed Ayesh is an Orthopaedics & Traumatology surgeon at Al Shifa: He also posted support for 7 October and the 27 Jan. 14/19

I have others - you can see them in the article below.

These are the doctors who our media are relying on. These are the story makers spreading hateful libels.

So why is our mainstream media taking the words of these terrorist supporters and promoting them as truth? 15/19
One example. A tweet says all the ICU patients are dead.

Those spreading it: @Stone_SkyNews (Sky News). @JaneFerguson5 (PBS) @malonebarry (Reuters).

The source? Head of Shifa. With a terrorist brother and endless support for terrorism. This is not journalism!! 16/19 Image
The visible truth is that the media has chosen to promote the conspiracy stories and fake news fed to them by Hamas HQ. And it is a fair assessment to suggest that since Oct 7, much of mainstream media in the west has turned into a part of the Hamas propaganda machine. 17/19
Media reporting such as this is culpable for the rise in antisemitism. It fuels the fire that has left Jewish families fearful of going out and scared of publicly identifying as Jewish. You can see the full story and more examples here 18/19 david-collier.com/doctors-shifa-…

We all heard the "tortured toddler" story - it went viral. A demonising claim about Israeli soldiers.

So I did what no mainstream outlet appears to have done. I examined the evidence!

And the whole thing soon fell apart.

Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
First (as I posted last week) I found the father’s Facebook page. His profile pic is of him holding a firearm.

The account even references military training - in Gaza, that means affiliation with a terrorist group.

The Palestinians want you to think he just took a wrong turn. Image
All the media stories pushed the same line. He wanted to go shopping, but took a wrong turn.

This is the area he was stopped. Open fields. No shops. No residential confusion.

At what point does someone realise they are not heading towards groceries? Why no media pushback? Image

Exclusive: Why is it that when Israel kills terrorists, global media has a habit of turning them into innocent figures who must be protected?

Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
On March 28, Israel @IDF struck a car carrying Hezbollah terrorists. Since then global media has ran a campaign to paint those inside as innocent journalists.

They said Israel did not give them any evidence. But for some reason none of them bothered to look for any themselves.
I am not even focusing on the main target - Ali Shoeib. I found this on the Facebook page of Mohammed Ftouni. He is on the right: Image

This weekend, at their spring conference, UK Green Party members will debate a motion titled simply: “Zionism is Racism.”

Rather than rebut every distortion, I’ve focused on the core pillars of Motion A105. 1/9
Motion A105 rewrites Jewish identity and history to deny Jews the basic right to self-determination.

At the same time, it undermines the very anti-racist safeguards designed to protect Jewish communities in the Diaspora. 2/9
Calling Zionism racist is as absurd as calling a women’s refuge “sexist” - both evolved as a means of protection, not domination.

Zionism is not about distant supporters. It is about the national existence of the people who live it. 3/9

Two hospital explosions. Two @BBCNews narratives.

One dominated headlines for days.
The other disappeared within hours.

This is evidence of anti-Israel bias.
But it’s also something more.

Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
We all know the story. 17 Oct 2023 - Gaza.

Explosion at Al-Ahli hospital.
Within minutes:

“Israeli airstrike” “Hundreds killed”

The BBC led with it - and stayed with it. Image
But last week - a similar breaking story.
Explosion at a hospital in Kabul.
Reports of hundreds dead in an Pakistani air strike.

This time?
The BBC was far more muted. Playing it down.
Compare the BBC headline with the way other newsrooms reported it. Image

The BBC recently apologised after turning the Holocaust into one of many “holocausts.”

This thread examines another case of Jewish history being rewritten by @bbcnews.
⬇️⬇️⬇️
The BBC published a podcast about Jewish life in Morocco. Centuries of persecution were reframed as harmony. Conditions approaching slavery were recast as a “model” of Muslim-Jewish coexistence. This is a classic anti-Zionist fiction. Image
I’ve been there, following my wife’s Moroccan heritage. No one can see the erased communities, hidden cemeteries, unmarked buildings and armed protection of Jewish sites and honestly call this a model of coexistence. This is Pravda-level propaganda.

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
