This will be a first raw 🧵 to unravel the Hamas accusations of IDF troops firing at and killing civilians during a recent aid mission in to Northern Gaza. I’ve never put together a thread like this so hopefully it will work.

On the 29th of February, Al Jazeera (aka HTN or Hamas Television Network) reported on what they and the Hamas Ministry called a massacre that took place in Northern Gaza as a convoy of aid trucks went in from Egypt.

With many previous convoys being hit by Hamas where aid was forcefully looted and stolen by armed terrorists (anyone can feel free to add to this thread with the many videos showing Hamas attacking aid trucks), it was claimed by Gazans that gunfire was indeed heard as the aid convoy entered the North. What was not confirmed was who was behind the gunfire.

Two days ago I analyzed a video and showed evidence clearly seen in the video that Hamas terrorists armed with AK47s were firing at civilians and stealing the aid by looting the trucks and beating civilians who tried to take food aid.

The IDF have given a few statements about the incident, stating that their troops did NOT open fire on the aid convoy. They stated that at a later point further north, a group of civilians approached the IDF and the troops fired warning shots in the air.

The BBC reported in their BBC Verified article that they based their findings mostly off the Al Jazeera footage and testimony report (surprise surprise). So basically they may as well have just taken a statement directly from Hamas. In fact, all the mainstream media that covered this story (and there weren’t that many, published their articles based on the Al Jazeera story.

As you will see in the article by the BBC here, they use the Al Jazeera story and reference it frequently. The BBC clearly states that their verification is also based on witness testimony, so the following parts of this thread will look at these in more depth.



I will add the full Al Jazeera video report, which I will breakdown in this thread, at the end of the thread so everybody can reference each point. This Al Jazeera report, as I will show, makes up the single predominant source for all other MSM worldwide covering this incident.bbc.com/news/world-mid…

Like the BBC, most other MSM sites used the Al Jazeera report as their sole or main source for their own reporting. CNN, CBS, SKY, and even Reuters make reference to the same video and stating that they themselves could not verify it.

Over the past few months, there have been dozens of reports of Hamas firing at and killing their own people, as well as looting aid trucks and stealing the aid, both for their own use as well as to sell at exorbitant prices.

Here is one example of Hamas firing at their own civilians

Here are a few examples many have already seen of Hamas looting aid trucks and stealing aid.

And some examples of Hamas firing at and/or killing their own people

Now let’s examine some of the testimony from the Gazans as per the Al Jazeera video report.

At around 00:52 in the video, the anchor makes the claim that the IDF shot and killed the civilians before it cuts to the first witness. This witness states that the IDF opened fire on the civilians with “tanks and war planes”. Now this is key to unraveling the truth of what really happened because it’s a claim stated by all the witnesses.

A second witness in this Al Jazeera story is featured at 02:27. He too claims that there was “sniper fire, tanks shelling, and drones”.

One of the most telling testimonies features at 03:03 in this video. It’s from a doctor at the Al Shifa Hospital.

Now for those who will remember, there was another hospital, Al-Ahli Arab Hospital, where Hamas and Al Jazeera claimed another “massacre” had occurred 4 months ago where the IDF was alleged to have launched air strikes at the hospital killing 500 people. That claim sent shockwaves around the world and was broadcast on BBC and other mainstream media as “verified”. However as we all now know, this was a fabricated story and was in fact a misfired rocket launched from nearby the hospital by PIJ which hit a parking lot and killed 20.

But just listen to this interview by the doctor. Within the first 10 seconds he immediately references the incident 4 months ago and still claims it was an IDF air strike and that 500 were killed (you can see the theme here by now)

All 3 video clips are attached here.
7/

Now aside from the “credible witnesses”, another major feature you’ll find in abundance in this Al Jazeera video is… Pallywood. That’s right, our favorite “dead come to life then dead again” Gazans we’ve seen exposed over the last 3 days all claimed their fame from this Al Jazeera video.

#Pallywood
8/

Also I’m sure everybody remembers that just two weeks ago, the United Nations claimed that the Israeli Navy had hit an aid convoy with mortar shells, and the only image shown as “evidence” was a single truck stopped on the side of the road with a small section of its canvas ripped and torn and aid lay on the side of the road. No burn marks on the truck or canvas whatsoever.

Now having gone through dozens of articles. I came across one that mentioned testimony from the truck drivers of these convoys, usually Egyptian drivers. And here is one I found that is relevant and interesting in its description. This was reported by French Media France 24.

Furthermore, here is a video as well with testimony from the Egyptian drivers about how the civilians attacked their convoy.Image
9/

Now going back to the testimony by civilians stating that IDF tanks and war planes opened fire on civilians, it’s important to note what tanks or armored vehicles opening fire really means. IDF tanks, mainly Merkava 4 and 5 tanks, have the main 120mm gun, a 60mm anti aircraft gun, two .50 caliber Browning M2 automatic machine guns and two 762 MAG automatic machine guns. To truly understand what this firepower would do to a human body, let’s examine this carefully. Here is a video of actual footage of allied forces firing a Browning M2 at an Isis terrorist in a real conflict zone. You will see how the sheer power of this gun lifts the body of the terrorist off the ground and rips his body to pieces, as well as destroys the walls of the building.

🚨🚨WARNING🚨🚨
EXTREMELY GRAPHIC AND SENSITIVE FOOTAGE
10/

When one just runs a search for videos on YouTube of what a .50 caliber rifle can do to a ballistic torso, and similarly the high power 762, you’d see that there wouldn’t be carts carrying injured people or dead with small bullet holes, but rather just whatever remains of limbs and chunks of meat. Reports claim dozens of people were shot in the head by these weapons… so it’s important to note that the munitions used in the smaller caliber weapons create a small hole on entry, but a fist sized hole as the bullet exists. The fire was allegedly done at close range, which would have dismembered bodies.

Snipers usually use 0.50 rifles, which would just rip half a head off, if not worse.

Then when we look at war planes, the larger UAVs carry 0.50 caliber rifles, sometimes even 60mm, which would rip bodies apart. Some reports claimed gunfire came from fighter jets. These planes use 20mm explosive rounds that would leave no bodies left to collect.

Lastly, witnesses such as one further up this thread claimed tanks “shelled” civilians. So I’ve added a video of tank shells hitting a ballistic torso simply so everyone understands how ridiculous these claims are.



All the above simply make it implausible that the IDF opened fire with tanks or planes as claimed by witnesses. And it’s important to note that these were the testimonies used by Al Jazeera and the BBC and others as “evidence”.
11/

The final piece I’ll add is enormously important and telling, and yet equally surprising. In the most recent press Q&A by the UN, the UN refused to assign blame or point a finger at Israel for this incident. The spokesman openly stated that the UN was NOT there to witness anything and so refused to simply take the word of Hamas. That in itself is a huge thing, especially since the UN and Hamas have pretty much been synonymous with one another throughout.

Here’s the video

12/

And to end, here is the full Al Jazeera video report that was used to spark almost every anti Israel protest reaction because of this incident around the world.

Based on all the evidence and testimony from the Palestinian side and the IDF, if one was to be objective, it is the IDF version of events that are not only most plausible, but also match up with the actual evidence known. There is simply too much that is clearly fabricated from the Hamas side.

This is going to be one of the most eye-opening 🧵 I’ve ever posted. In full disclosure, I didn’t author this. The person who deserves full credit and praise is the phenomenal @IbnAlwarraq.

This is the must-read thread of them all, and I encourage and implore everyone to share it. The last 3-4 slides are the most mind blowing revelations everyone needs to know about, especially about the involvement of QATAR.

To @DefiyantlyFree and @ACTBrigitte and @marklevinshow and the many others who have been speaking up about the Muslim Brotherhood and the Qatari involvement in global terrorism and education indoctrination, this is definitely for you.

So let’s begin…
2/

The unbroken chain of writers and ideologues of the Muslim Brotherhood.

Jamal al-Din al-Afghani: 1838-1897
Muhammad Abduh: 1849-1905
Rashid Rida: 1863-1935 Hassan al-Banna: 1906-1949
Sayyid Qutb: 1906-1966 Muhammad Qutb: 1919-2014
Abdullah Azzam: 1941-1989
Omar Abdel-Rahman: 1938-2017
Yusuf al-Qaradawi: 1926-2022

To understand Islamists in general and the Muslim Brotherhood in particular, one has to go back to the late 19th century to one of the founders of the Pan-Islamic movement, Jamal al-Din al-Afghani who believed in overthrowing individual rulers who were lax or subservient to western powers, and that it should be done by revolution from above following the example of
Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab in his war against the Ottomans.
3/

The History:

Afghani was clear that Muslims are not going to take an example from the civilized nations, but that they have to start an Islamic revolution. His ideas were considered too radical by conservative Muslim Ottomans, and he was expelled and moved to Egypt, where he began preaching his ideas and used Freemasonry as an organizational base for his political activities.

During this period, Afghani had also considered assassinating Khedive Isma'il. He perceived Freemasonry as a means of advancing his anti-colonial, anti-imperialist, pan-Islamic causes. Afghani's political activities would play a decisive role in overthrowing Isma'il from the throne and bringing Tewfik Pasha as khedive.

A 🧵 about this much abused and false term of the “right of return”.

This thread is also in honor of the amazing @EinatWilf who is a leading expert on this subject, as well as my wonderful friends @Shoshana51728 and @IbnAlwarraq.

Did you know that there is actually a UN resolution that disputes it and makes clear the position on this?

Well I’m going to show you.

***Please take note especially of slide 4, slide 16, and slides 19-25 (especially slide 22)***

Israel couldn’t simply agree to allow all “Palestinians” to return, as it’s a far more complex issue in reality, but Israel did consistently seek a solution to the refugee problem.

Israel's position was expressed quiet clearly by David Ben Gurion on August 1, 1948, two and a half months after we declared Independence:

“When the Arab states are ready to conclude a peace treaty with Israel, this question will come up for constructive solution as part of the general settlement, and with due regard to our counterclaims in respect of the destruction of Jewish life and property, the long-term interest of the Jewish and Arab populations, the stability of the State of Israel and the durability of the basis of peace between it and its neighbors, the actual position and fate of the Jewish communities in the Arab countries, the responsibilities of the Arab governments for their war of aggression and their liability for reparation, will all be relevant in the question whether, to what extent, and under what conditions, the former Arab residents of the territory of Israel should be allowed to return.”
3/

In fact, the new Israeli government was NOT indifferent to the plight of the refugees, and an ordinance was passed creating a Custodian of Abandoned Property "to prevent unlawful occupation of empty houses and business premises, to administer ownerless property, and also to secure tilling of deserted fields, and save the crops....".

What’s never mentioned by the Arab world or propagandists is that even though there was a clear danger of repatriation, it did not prevent Israel from allowing some refugees to return, and even offering to take back a substantial number as a condition for signing a peace treaty.

In 1949, Israel offered to allow families that had been separated during the war to return, to release refugee accounts frozen in Israeli banks (eventually released in 1953), to pay compensation for abandoned lands and to repatriate 100,000 refugees.

Hello Zachary Foster,

So I’ve read your reply to @noatishby and I thought it only right that I reply to you. In fairness I had to read your reply a second time because I was just laughing too much with the replies from the flock of imbecile sheep who wouldn’t know facts or history of it was tattooed to their forehead.

So I’m going to go point by point and happily fill in the gaps and details you intentionally omitted. I’ll delete the irrelevant parts of your reply that are as meaningless as your claim to being Jewish. I assure you I’m not intimidated by any of you pretend academics, whether that fraud Pappe, or Morris, and certainly not you🤭

❌ But I'm not a Zionist. Zionism was an ideology that said, let's create a Jewish state in a country that's 90%+ non-Jewish.

✅ Zionism is the belief that Jews have the right to finally return to their homeland they were forced to leave centuries ago, and the right to have a Jewish homeland where all Jews may feel safe and protected.

❌ That's why, when Zionists bought land in Palestine from the 1900s-1948, they uprooted the people living on the land because they weren't jewish.

✅ This is just blatantly false. Jews began to acquire land from as early as 1901, while it was still the Ottoman Empire. They legally acquired land from the Ottomans as well as wealthy land owners who were not living or utilizing the land and were happy to sell. Jews always paid well above market value for the land. It was the Arab owners who removed any tenants who had not paid their rents due to a lack of income caused by infertile soil and malaria being widespread.

❌ That's why, when Zionists created cooperatives in Palestine in the 1910s, 1920s and 1930s, they insisted on "Hebrew Labor", i.e., "Jews only" -- no Arabs allowed.

✅ Again this is blatantly false. There were few Arabs living in the land in the 1910’s, as the land was arid, infertile and stricken with malaria. The Arabs who were there had done nothing with it and many began to leave to other Arab states to find jobs and arable land. It was Jewish migrants that came and invested in building new cities from desert and sand such as Tel Aviv. It was the Jews who used science to rid the land and swamps of malaria, and turn the infertile soil into lush green pastures. It was the Jews who undertook the largest afforestation program ever known. In the late 1910’s, Arabs would work on these new Jewish lands. In 1917, the Balfour Declaration was announced and it caused significant tensions between the Jews and Arab nationalists who had felt betrayed by the British.

In the 1920’s, the Grand Mufti Amin Al Husseini who was a diehard Arab nationalist, became angry that Jews began to have so many numbers through migration and wanted to thwart the Jews from ever having a state of their own. The San Remo Conference had ratified the intention of the creation of the Jewish state, so Husseini formed large groups of Arab militias who began 15 years of massacres and pogroms against the Jews, starting with the Jaffa massacre of 1920 and Jerusalem massacre of 1920 and 1921. Entire Jewish communities were burned down and many Jews slaughtered. In 1925, Husseini became enamored with another person who would ultimately become his ally and lead to the worst genocide in modern history… Hitler. In 1929, we then had the Hebron Massacre which is well documented.

Enter the 1930’s, and due to higher Jewish migration and more land development, the economy began to boom. This saw a huge influx of hundreds of thousands of new Arab migrants who came to find work with the Jews, and with the intention to ensure that there would always be more Arabs than Jews. Becoming more frustrated, Husseini then declared the Arab uprising where all the Arabs went on strike and Arab militias attacked Jewish communities killing many. This is when the British brought more soldiers to the land to crush the revolt, and Husseini was finally exiled to Syria.
2/

❌ That's why, in the 1930s, Zionists expelled Palestinian Arabs from working at Jewish companies and business. (Think "whites only", but with the Zionists it was "Jews only.")

✅ Nope. False again. As above, it’s because of the Arab revolt and the constant attacks on Jewish communities that the British came in numbers to crush the uprising. But the Arabs still attacked, and for the first time, in 1937, Irgun took defensive action and attacked the Arabs to protect the Jewish communities. It is because of the constant Arab attacks on Jews that are very well documented and evidenced in history that the trust between Jews and Arabs were strained and many Jewish communities rejected Arabs from working in their businesses. Similar to what happened on October 7, where Gazans who were given work in the southern towns and kibbutzim were feeding plans and information to Hamas and then turned on the Jewish communities and slaughtered them.

❌ That's why, in 1948, Zionists militias ethnically cleansed 750,000 Palestinians from their homes.

✅ You honestly just regurgitate bullshit Zach. Firstly, there weren’t 750,000 Arab refugees. Even the UN reports of 1948 and 1951 stated the numbers at 300-360k. Furthermore, it wasn’t the Jews who expelled the Arabs. The Arab armies from neighboring states instructed them to leave so that the armies could come in and wipe out the Jews so that the Arabs could then return and rebuild the land as Arab land clean of Jews. This was after the UN published their Partition plan of 1947 in end of November and the Arabs rejected it and waged the civil war that lasted until Israel declared independence in May 1948.

Your above statement is the fabled Nakba which was false and never happened.

A 🧵 about a forgotten Islamic war against the west.

Everyone knows about the Yom Kippur War of 1973. That two and a half week war was brutal, the third war in 35 years, where multiple Arab states waged a genocidal war against Israel with the intent to wipe out the Jews.

But very few people remember a different kind of war waged against the West immediately after the Yom Kippur War…
The 1973 Oil Embargo.

There is a reason I’ve been so outspoken about Saudi Arabia being one of the heads of the snake. They’ve always been the main driver behind seeking the destruction of Israel.Image
2/

After Israel defeated the Arab nations again, and with Israeli forces still in the Sinai and Golan Heights, King Faisal of Saudi Arabia was incensed at yet another Arab defeat. He wanted to punish every single country that assisted or armed Israel during and after the war leading to Israel’s victory and their leverage in post-war peace negotiations.Image
3/

The Saudi King, as one of the most powerful OPEC countries, demanded that all Arab OPEC oil producing members cut all oil shipments to the United States, as well as any other countries that aided Israel during the war, most notably the Netherlands, Portugal and South Africa. Image

This is going to hopefully be my most eye-opening 🧵 I’ve written to date. I only regret that like all my other threads, this will never be seen by those who need to see it. I wish the big accounts would share it so the reality and truth can be seen by everyone. There are so many people I wish I could tag and who would read it and share it, because it’s a history few talk about today that is so important and so frighteningly identical to everything that’s happening today.

And incredibly, it has nothing to do with Israel and the Jewish people. It has everything to do with the United States of America. When you read this thread, you’ll understand, and you’ll instantly be able to see events of today being identical to events from back then.

If you are true to yourself, true to truth, you will see that the hero today in our modern times is @POTUS @realDonaldTrump, @netanyahu and their administrations, including@SecRubio @PeteHegseth @PamBondi @elonmusk. If you see otherwise, then not only are you unAmerican, but you’re simply not serious about truth.

This thread has been written in conjunction with my wonderful friend, @IbnAlwarraq, and as I mentioned, it touches on what @TulsiGabbard said earlier in the week, and on information stated by @StealthMedical1 and @DefiyantlyFree a few weeks ago (and I’m a massive fan of both).

So let’s begin the journey to a time in history that tells the story of how it all began… the first ever:

WAR ON TERRORImage
2/

In the early days of the United States, shortly after America became independent, the second president, John Adams, began to expand his mission of American trade with the world.

One of the key regions the young United States focused on was Africa and the Middle East. America had no issue with any country or people or religion. It was a young nation wanting to work with the world and befriend everyone. It was at a time when the US was still fragmented, it had not finished its constitution, and it was not yet a unified Republic. But nothing forced the country to become more united than this.

The young US wasn’t like its European peers. It was a secular country rather than seeing itself as a Christian nation. But what was to come Unified’s the churches of the US, and those around the world.
3/

Before America was even born, and before there was even the first American, the Islamic world ruled at the time by the Ottoman Empire began a campaign of terror against the British of piracy and terror, taking thousands of British sailors and citizens hostage, enslaving them, and demanding high ransom. For two centuries since the late 1500’s, the British didn’t fully fight back and would pay the highest ransom for the release of many hostages and for the protection of various of the Barbary nations.

But when the Americans began to sail to Africa and the Mediterranean, the Muslim rulers of Algeria and Libya and other Muslim strongholds began a wave of attacks on American trading ships, killing many, and enslaving many. It didn’t matter to the Muslims who they took. And the victims were men and women and even children, white and black. And many of these hostages weren’t enslaved for labor, but rather ransom.

A 🧵 about the BBC documentary making headlines:

So I watched the hour-long BBC documentary which was removed, and I will offer my honest review of what I saw and noted per request of my wonderful friend @GAZAWOOD1:
2/

✳️ This documentary has the who’s who of Pallywood actors featuring throughout. Several actors who featured in dozens of faked videos, especially the child actors, were in this documentary.
3/

✳️ As already exposed, the main character is the son of a Hamas commander. His claims of living in squalor and struggles are so false it was hilarious.
