If you want to understand how Hamas propaganda is created on here and spreads, let me show a perfect example.

21 year old Mia Schem was taken hostage by Hamas on 10/7. She had her arm blown off. She was released as part of the ceasefire exchange.

While she was still in Hamas captivity, they had her film a hostage video in October.

Then, right before her release, they had her film another video under gunpoint where she said she was treated “very good” and people in Gaza were “very kind” to her.

The main anti-Israel propaganda accounts on here then promoted that video for millions of views suggesting Hamas was treating the hostages very well.

And then you had certain people with media platforms, like Briahna Joy Gray, use such propaganda to dismiss the possibility of rape andclaim that the hostages faced “humane treatment”

All of that leaves a lasting false impression. Then we get to now when she has had a chance to recover and is sharing the real story on how she was treated, which is the complete opposite of humane.

Here Mia talks specifically about the video cited above by propagandists on here that Hamas made her record.

“Just before heading home, a Hamas terrorist with a camera confronts you and tells me, say that the people of Gaza are nice. Say kind things”

Mia explains that she was treated like a zoo animal. She says that she believes the only reason that the man from the family who watched her 24/7 prior to being taken to the tunnels didn’t rape her was that his wife was always outside the door w the kids.
