Hamas' Casualty Count: The Math Isn't Mathing 🧵 Image
Every single civilian death is tragic and awful, Image
but the numbers from Hamas just aren’t mathing. Image
Trusting Hamas over these suspicious numbers is foolish. Image
But the key missing detail... Image
Have you actually seen a Hamas member in military fatigues since October 7th? Image
Neither have we. Image

🧵 Dishonest Reporter of the Year Awards 2025 🎉

1/ It’s awards season… and while Hollywood hands out trophies for acting, we’re honoring the people who pretended to do journalism. Presenting: Dishonest Reporter of the Year 2025.

Let's find out the winners 👇Image
2/ 🏆 Winner: The BBC
No outlet worked harder this year to prove that “publicly funded” doesn’t mean “publicly accountable.” Truly a masterclass in bias, blunders & backpedaling.

3/ Remember that Gaza documentary narrated by… a Hamas minister’s teenage son? The one whose mom got paid? Yeah — that really happened. BBC: Bold. Brave. Or just… 🤦‍♂️

 Since Oct. 7, 2023, major media outlets have repeatedly reported casualty figures from the Hamas-run Ministry of Health (MoH) in Gaza as if they were independently verified facts -- with little to no skepticism.

Let's break down the distorted narratives. 🧵 Image
2/
 Headlines citing MoH death tolls were widely amplified without attribution to Hamas, allowing a terrorist org’s figures to become the dominant narrative in global reporting. Image
3/
 This has resulted in repeated blood libels in media coverage -- blaming Israel for high civilian death tolls without critically examining the reliability of the source data.

 🌍Are Israeli women living in a dystopian reality where, year by year, they are being stripped of their most basic rights?

No, because the data and imagery used by @CNN to support that narrative distort reality and mislead audiences. 🧵 Image
2/
 📸 The cover image features a “Handmaid’s Tale”-style protest from nearly three years ago against legal reforms -- not a current reflection of women’s rights in Israel. Context matters. Image
3/
 📊 CNN relies on the Women Peace & Security Index (WPS Index) without questioning its methodology. The index blends unrelated indicators (e.g., cellphone use, conflict exposure), not a pure gender-rights measure.

 If there is “no longer famine in Gaza,” as the IPC claims, was there ever famine in the first place?

You won’t find the answer from @CNN. 🧵 Image
2/
 Earlier coverage leaned heavily on warnings that Gaza was on the brink of famine, framing them as established fact.

Those claims fueled international outrage and accusations. Yet CNN rarely noted how contested they were.
3/
 CNN now reports that famine conditions have been pushed back since the October ceasefire.

But that formulation obscures a key point: there was no famine in the first place.

 The New York Times doesn’t use the phrase “ethnic cleansing” in its West Bank project.

It doesn't have to.

Selective imagery, distorted data & erased Palestinian terrorism lead to one conclusion: Israel is driving Palestinians off their land.

That claim is false. 🧵⬇️ Image
2/
 The article presents a stark moral narrative: “Armed Israeli settlers, often protected by soldiers, harass and attack Palestinian villagers daily, with the undisguised goal of driving them out.”

It describes masked extremists, rampant violence, state backing, and impunity.

It is frightening. It is also profoundly misleading.Image
3/
 This framing rests on three pillars:

• Inflated & distorted violence statistics
• Visual implication without context
• The near-total erasure of Palestinian terrorism

Remove those pillars – and the narrative collapses.

Let’s take them one by one.

 🧵 How terrorists who murder Jews are quietly humanized in media coverage.

Not through praise – but through framing, emphasis, and omission.

Once you see it, you can’t unsee it. Image
2/
 Let’s start with this headline from @Newsweek:
“Mom of Bondi terror attack suspect says he was a ‘good boy’”

Pause on that.

This is not context. It's emotional laundering – shifting attention from victims to the feelings of the terrorist’s family. Image
3/
 Humanization also shows up in language choices.

“Terrorists” become gunmen. “Murder” becomes an incident. A mass-casualty attack on Jews becomes something that “happened at Bondi Beach.”

This @bbc headline doesn’t even tell readers that people were killed. Image
