0/10 for original journalism, @CNN. Only in the past 10 days, both @nytimes & @guardian have published almost identical stories accusing the IDF of using Palestinians as human shields.
All 3 stories use Breaking the Silence, whose critics repeatedly allege, appears to frequently rely on “either fabricated or exaggerated” testimonies from former soldiers & are “motivated by financial & political concerns to further a pro-Palestinian agenda.” honestreporting.com/breaking-the-m…
CNN interviews only 5 Palestinians and one anonymous IDF soldier provided by Breaking the Silence.
This is not enough to prove widespread malfeasance throughout the Israeli army.
Is the Secretary-General of the UN working on behalf of all nations?🧵
António Guterres has been quick to condemn Israel's response to attacks from Gaza and Lebanon, but rarely condemns Hamas, Hezbollah, and other Islamic Republic proxies.
On October 7, Guterres urged "all diplomatic efforts to avoid a wider conflagration" ...while the massacre was still taking place.
Meet @WSJ journalist Abeer Ayyoub. She used her X account to spread terrorist propaganda and fake news, as Hamas massacred thousands of Israelis on Oct 7.
She also exploited the social media platform to distribute antisemitic slurs and content that whitewashes Hamas. 🧵
On Oct. 7, Ayyoub posted a violent propaganda video produced by Hamas’ armed wing. It showed terrorists lynching and executing Israeli soldiers near the Gaza border.
When Israeli Arab Affairs expert Edi Cohen posted the following in Arabic: “In the Quran, God commanded respect for prisoners. The Palestinian militants killed & raped them,” Ayyoub replied: “So do you guys respect them, you sh*t?”
