The UN's "genocide" case was rigged from the start.🧵

This week, the @unitednations Commission of Inquiry dropped a 72-page report accusing Israel of “genocide” in Gaza.

The headlines went viral.

@unitednations But the report itself? Not so much.
It was full of biased commissioners, cherry-picked quotes, Hamas-supplied data, omissions of tunnels and hostages, and fabricated stories.

💥 This @Reuters piece is as vile as its headline. It paints Hezbollah terrorists as victims of Israel’s pager strike. Then it lies — calling the op the “opening salvo” of the war. Wrong. Hezbollah fired first, Oct 8, 2023.
🧵

2/
Like Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah hides in hospitals & schools. @Reuters admits this — then calls one a “Hezbollah-affiliated facility.” Translation: a terror outpost where the “hospital director” had a Hezbollah pager for “maintenance.” You can’t make this up.

3/
Reuters brags about an “investigation” proving what Israel already said: it planted explosives in Hezbollah devices. The big reveal? Those devices were with Hezbollah fighters — or, as Reuters coyly puts it, “members of Hezbollah’s social services branches.” Journalism or PR?

@mehdirhasan falsely claims Gazan journalists were "killed *because* they were wearing a vest marked 'Press'."

No, Mehdi. Israel does not deliberately target genuine journalists for doing their jobs.

And as for some of those you specifically named? Let's take a look. 🧵

Glitz, glamor, red carpets… and Palestine.
At last night’s @TheEmmys, some celebs couldn’t resist hijacking the spotlight with anti-Israel stunts.

From Javier Bardem’s keffiyeh show to “Free Palestine” shout-outs, here’s a roundup of the worst. 🧵

2/
The “biggest attention seeker” award? Javier Bardem. He wore a keffiyeh, accused Israel of “genocide,” and cited that dodgy “genocide scholars” group where anyone can join for $30. Real scholarly, Javier. 🙄

3/
Bardem also told @Variety he “cannot work with anyone who justifies or supports the genocide.” Translation: no Israelis. No Jews who support Israel. That’s not activism—it’s straight-up cultural boycott & discrimination.

Antisemitic conspiracy theorists are having a field day after Charlie Kirk was gunned down on a Utah campus. Their target? Israel.

Let’s unpack the wildest “Israel did it” lies fueling this grotesque political assassination discourse. 🧵

2/
First up: @RealCandaceO. Never one to miss a clout-chasing moment, she hinted Netanyahu may have had Kirk killed—because of a letter Charlie once wrote him. For the record: Kirk was a staunch Zionist who visited Israel often. Owens is just peddling garbage.

3/
Then there’s fake “historian” Ian Carroll – Tucker Carlson’s favorite crackpot – claiming Israel killed Kirk because the “internet figured it out.” Right. Because nothing screams forensic credibility like anonymous Reddit sleuths.

Charlie Kirk’s murder is a tragedy. Whatever your politics, his fierce defense of Israel stood out. On campuses worldwide he fearlessly debated Israel’s right to exist – changing minds along the way.

A thread of Charlie’s most impactful defenses of Israel 🧵

2/
In the UK, Charlie shredded a sanctimonious Cambridge student. He broke down urban warfare, Hamas using civilians as shields, & the double standard forced on Israel.
“Israel is the good guy.” – Charlie Kirk

Moral equivocating drove Charlie crazy. His question cut through the noise: What should Israel have done after Oct 7?

No one who condemns Israel has ever answered.
