🚨Important! Haaretz definitively debunks iconic horror stories from Oct 7:
40 beheaded babies
Baby burned in oven
A pregnant woman's stomach opened & her fetus removed
Children bound together & burned
Pregnant hostage giving birth
Haaretz says only 1 baby was killed on Oct 7🧵
2\ The report is in Hebrew for now (English version will follow soon). It maintains that other atrocities were committed on Oct 7, but thoroughly debunks the stories of beheaded babies, a disemboweled pregnant woman, children burned together, baby in oven! haaretz.co.il/news/politics/…
3\ Here Netanyahu told Biden "They took dozens of children, tied them up, burned them and executed them". Biden fell for it instantly.
Haaretz now says this claim "does not exactly correspond to the picture of reality"!
4\ A ZAKA commander, Yossi Landau, claimed he saw 20 mutilated, executed & burned bodies of children piled on top of each other In Be'eri. He later claimed it was in Kfar Aza.
Haaretz says only 3 kids were killed in all of Kfar Aza & 9 in all of Be'eri & not all together!
5\ ZAKA commander, Yossi Landau, also claimed he saw a pregnant woman in House 426 in Be'eri with her stomach cut open & her fetus still attached to it but stabbed.
Haaretz says that whole neighbourhood is inhibited by pensioners & no one recalled any pregnant women there!
6\ Israelis circulated a fake video to claim it showed a pregnant woman being disembowelled by Hamas & her fetus killed. But Haaretz cites FakeReporter's conclusion that the video is from another country.
7\ Eli Beer, head of Ihud Hatzalah, repeated the "pregnant woman" canard & said "[Hamas] put a baby in an oven & turned on the oven".
Dailymail fell for it.
Haaretz now says this is false! "The police have no evidence of a body that answers these signs"!
8\ Sarah Netanyahu sent a letter to Jill Biden about a pregnant hostage that gave birth in Gaza.
Haaretz says this is false. The hostage in question, Natwari Mulkan, was released last week & was definitely not pregnant!

A🧵debunking Israel's talking points on Rafah through the words of top *Israeli* generals & leaders on why the invasion:
Will NOT defeat Hamas
May cost the lives of all hostages
Is NOT necessary
& that Hamas is "still alive & kicking" in every city the IDF invaded & destroyed...
2\ Israel's own (under)estimates is that there's still 5,000 armed Hamas militants in Northern Gaza after 210 days
IDF General (res.) Israel Ziv admits Hamas is "still alive & kicking" in northern Gaza after everything Israel did there, including destroying & damaging over 70% of all homes!
🚨Israel is RAPING & sexually assaulting Palestinian detainees:
"They were led to the kitchen, where they were stripped & forced to lie one on top of the other.... They were beaten with clubs & spat on. A guard then started to stuff carrots into the anus of Abu Halil & other prisoners."
2\ Israel's sexual abuse of those detainees that spoke up was a routine: "Again they were stripped. This time they were kicked in the testicles. The guards would lunge at them & kick, lunge & kick, again & again. Nonstop brutality for 25 minutes. 'We are Bruce Lee,' the guards proclaimed. They shook them & shoved them around like balls from one corner of the room to the other, then moved them to their new cells in Block 6."
3\ Most Palestinian victims of Israeli sexual abuse would never speak up about their trauma out of fear of Israel arbitrarily detaining or killing them in revenge, as well as the social stigma & shame it brings
🚨Harrowing evidence revealed of Israel's execution of Gazans at the Nasser hospital mass grave 🧵
These 2 bodies were both shot in the head, both hand-tied.
Multiple discovered bodies were zip-tied, some both arms & legs. Some buried in patient gowns, including children.
2\ Multiple bodies discovered at the Nasser hospital mass grave had their arms tied with zip-ties or duck tape.
Many bodies were buried at a 3 meter depth to accelerate decomposition.
3\ At the mass grave, bodies of patients were discovered, buried in their hospital gowns & tied
The body to the right belongs to a girl whose leg was amputated after being wounded in an Israeli airstrike. Her family says she was still alive at the hospital when Israel raided it.
Israel lies pathologically!
A🧵of dozens of conclusively debunked Israeli gov lies since Oct 7, off the top of my head
1- The IDF blatantly claimed this underground WATER TANK was a "Hamas tunnel" their ground troops discovered at the Qatari hospital in Gaza on Nov 5 2023
Mainstream media put it in headlines immediately despite experts challenging this lie with detailed maps of the room
In February, local journalists were finally able to access the area & debunk the lie
The IDF knew exactly what this shaft was back in Nov b/c their troops inspected it on the ground, but they lied deliberately to pave the way for raiding, besieging, bombing, & destroying almost every single hospital in Gaza
2\ Bombing fleeing refugees: Israel bombed a convoy of Gazans fleeing south on the very "safe road" they ordered to go through, killing over 70 on Oct 13.
Israel immediately denied bombing the convoy & said it was Hamas.
Financial Times found Israel was lying.
The damage was consist with an Israeli airstrike! ft.com/content/95c5fc…
3\ In Nov, Israel lied (again) about Palestinian detainee Mohammed Nazal who was mercilessly beaten & tortured by Israeli prison guards for no reason until they broke his arms & denied him medical treatment.
BBC confirmed with 2 UK doctors that his arms were indeed broken.
🚨Hostages are having their legs amputated from being zip-tied by all 4 limbs for months; they're being forced to defecate in diapers & fed through straws.
Those are Gazan hostages at Israel's Sde Teiman "concentration camp", so you won't see one word about it in Western media🧵
2\ Wherever the IDF goes in Gaza, they mass arrest surviving men & children from the age of 15
IDF soldier force kidnapped Gazans to strip down to their underwear on camera & put them on trucks to the Sde Teiman military base in the Negev that Israelis call a concentration camp!
3\ Israel does NOT reveal how many Gazans they currently hold at the Sde Teiman "concentration camp" & don't allow any access to the Red Cross or any other international group.
The number of detainees is in the thousands!
They're subjected to unimaginable nonstop daily torture!
2\ Manas says "we woke up to the sound of rockets", but here it's translated into that "[I] went to the command & control centre" to make him sound part of a militant plan
He basically says his friend spontaneously suggested they cross the fence to see what was happening
3\ Here he says the woman "was surprised to see me. It sounded as if she said help" but they translate it into "scared of me, she told me to help her".
This is a guy who says his friend had just been shot in the head second before he walked into this house & decided to rape?
