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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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-…

This time Dr Adnan Al-Borsh, who was Chief of Ortho at Shifa.
He is another one our media love to quote. Just yesterday his tears were described in the @guardian 1/8
He has been playing at this role for years. In 2019 PBS used him to describe the 'life shattering injuries' Gazans received during border clashes. And a couple of days ago he was spreading stories in the media about babies in incubators at Shifa. 2/8
And another culpable NGO - Medical Aid for Palestinians - introduce him in 2016 as their Gaza reconstruction team. Such as nice - good - doctor....that @MedicalAidPal partner with... 3/8
Exclusive: Hamas propaganda really does have everyone duped.
This is Hind Khoudary @Hind_Gaza a 'journalist' in Gaza. She has 400k+ followers on social media + is a correspondent for news agencies.
Her tweets go viral. Like her posting that Israel just bombed a school 1/7
Here is Hind Khoudary:
First image: wearing a press jacket
Second: Reporting yesterday for @anadoluagency about a massacre and 100s dying at Jabliya 2/7
Except I know this 'journalist'. Here she is in 2019 glorifying terrorism and calling terrorists heroes.
First image: Praising two Islamic JIhad terrorists
Second: One of those terrorists not pretending to be civilian
Third: Openly glorifying and promoting terrorism 3/7
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.
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?
A big lie we are being sold is to suggest the anti-Israel demonstrations on our streets are all about human rights concerns. They say that any support for violence is just an outlier. In reality the opposite is true.
Just look - thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
Let's start with Scotland. Mick Napier is the head of the Scottish Palestine Solidarity Campaign. He posted this video on 7 October. He says the news is 'absolutely amazing'. He talks abut 'resistance fighters of paragliders'. He calls it 'astonishing'and 'inspiring'.
Another large Palestine group in the UK - is the Manchester PSC. This was posted by them on 7 October. It says Manchester PSC support the resistance. They called the terror attack a 'heroic move' carried out by 'brave fighters'.
I am an investigative journalist - who has done a bit of investigating - and I have a couple of questions for you about your reporting on the Islamist / Jihadist demonstration that took place in London on Saturday.

You sent a journo to the demo - where she interviewed people.
Your journo spoke to demonstrators and asks explicitly about the genocidal chant "from the river to the sea" - which is then promoted by you to your viewers as a peaceful chant (which it certainly isn't).
Your journo then says this
"the crux - from the people we have been speaking to is peace in the Middle East - that is the recurrent call we are hearing - strong emotions - but peace is the sentiment here'... Your journo is pushing a false message. But it gets worse...
Accounts on social media sites such as Twitter portray a wonderful history of a state called 'Palestine' -
So let us look a little deeper -

First the historical facts.
For the 19th century Islamic world, the area was a sparsely populated forgotten backwater with rival clans and nomadic tribes presenting a hazardous obstacle for every trip. 2/17
‘Palestine’ was never anything but a name of European imperial / colonial conquest (Greek, Roman, Crusader and then British). It had been left to rot by an Islamic empire that did not care. Even Al Aqsa - (deliberately built on top of a holy Jewish site) was left to decay. 3/17
