So the “stabbed in the eye” report, which sent genuine fear rippling through Jewish communities, for good reason, turns out to be bogus. Here’s the video, it’s a grazing at most by a tiny flag, and turns out the “victim” is a known right wing provocateur
Send in the National Guard quick
Here’s the experience of an even younger student. Compare the two
This student previously went viral around they Israeli couscous scandal

Don Lu asked about his role in pressuring Pakistan to oust Imran Khan. "These allegations, this conspiracy theory is a lie," he says at a hearing.

The entire audience erupts, calling him a liar. It's not a few protesters, the entire audience shouting him down.
Lu shouted down
McCormick asked them to kick the Code Pink people out but the funny thing is the Code Pink ones were not at all leading the outburst. But they got the boot anyway.

❗️❗️After two in depth investigations by The Intercept into a World Bank cover-up a child sex abuse scandal at a for profit school network in Africa, the World Bank has finally acknowledged wrongdoing.

WB head Ajay Banga in an email to staff apologized to the victims and promised an independent investigation.

This comes after the bank and its client spent the last year denigrating and dismissing our reporting.
First story with @NehaWadekar is here theintercept.com/2023/03/23/bri…
@NehaWadekar Our follow exposed the extent of the cover up, but was published October 17 so the Bank, according to internal sources, believed that the war in Gaza would create enough distraction that it would blow over. They were wrong. theintercept.com/2023/10/17/wor…

Multiple NYT sources tell me that the paper is now cutting ties with Anat Schwarz after her social media history — “turn Gaza into a slaughterhouse” — was exposed. Her explosive article shaped public understanding of 10/7 yet the team at The Daily has still been unable to produce an episode based on it, after producers found it full of holes.
Her social media history was first exposed here
She appears to have no journalism experience before being commissioned by the Times to team up with her nephew to do reporting for a major front page article that had an extraordinary impact on the course of the war. She and her nephew fed their notebooks to Jeffrey Gettleman, who flew in to write the story

Some fascinating politics underway in a Houston Democratic primary where the war in Gaza is becoming a central issue. This text message went out to a bunch of voters, claiming to be from Lizzie Fletcher boasting of her AIPAC endorsement and her strong support for “Israel’s right to defend itself against terrorists.” She does say that and is indeed backed by AIPAC, but she’s crying foul, saying her campaign didn’t send the messages.

The suggestion in her statement is that her opponent or an ally did it to highlight her link to AIPAC.Image

Her opponent Pervez Agwan denies having sent it.

But what’s remarkable about the whole thing is that none of what’s in the text message is untrue.
Meanwhile DMFI is in the race saying basically this exact thing in print advertisements in Houston’s Jewish Herald Voice

The White House just compared “anti-Israel protesters” — the phrase used by the Fox News reporter in his question — to the white supremacists who marched in Charlottesville.

When it is no longer deniable what is being done in Gaza right now — I don’t know when that time will come, but it will — there will be a lot of people with an enormous amount to answer for.

To compare the people protesting that to Charlottesville is unhinged.
If you’re not sure how bad it is inside Gaza, I recommend this interview theintercept.com/2023/10/28/gaz…

This NBC “fact checker” is on the one hand telling Zeynep that there is no “media censorship” while on the other hand accusing her of “Greenwaldian” behavior for simply saying we don’t know how the pandemic started.

Ben, do you not understand that using your position as a major… https://t.co/fx8RNDFFpWtwitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Zeynep’s willingness early in the pandemic to challenge orthodoxy changed our conversation and arguably saved a lot lives. Ben — @oneunderscore__ — should look that up, and aspire to it, not attack it.
@oneunderscore__ Meanwhile somebody who is dedicated to being factual has somehow forgotten that discussing a lab leak was literally forbidden on facebook properties for a very long time. What is that if not censorship?
