Meet Hind Khoudary. Tonight she's a star reporter for Channel 4. She's also famous for having informed on Rami Aman & other Gaza peace activists, getting Hamas to arrest them for the crime of doing a zoom with Israeli peace activists. Shame on you @Channel4 @C4Dispatches. 🧵🔽 /1

April 10: New York Times says @Hind_Gaza informed on the peace activist: “Freelance Gaza journalist Hind Khoudary posted angry denunciations on Facebook of Mr. Aman and others on the call, tagging three Hamas officials including Mr. Al-Bozom, to ensure it got their attention.” /5Image
Image
April 11: Long-time Human Rights Watch official Peter N. Bouckaert condemns Hind Khoudary for informing on Rami Aman to the Hamas regime — and removes her from his private Facebook group for journalists. “You should be ashamed of yourself,” Bouckaert writes to Khoudary. /6Image
Bouckaert: “It is disgusting that a so-called ‘journalist’ got an activist for dialogue arrested by Hamas. Hind was in a journalist group I run on Facebook and I kicked her out immediately. Conflicts are resolved through dialogue and understanding, not hatred.” /7 @Hind_GazaImage
April 12: At about 2:00 am Gaza time, Hind Khoudary’s Facebook post of April 8th—which denounced Rami Aman to the Hamas regime by tagging three of its henchmen—is deleted. Khoudary subsequently reports that it was Facebook that deleted her post. /8 Image
@AmnestyUK @C4Dispatches @Basement_Films @Hind_Gaza April 12: UN Watch calls for release of Rami Aman, pointing out that Hind Khoudary was affiliated with Amnesty and that her Facebook profile page—even at the time that she denounced Rami Aman—listed herself as working with Amnesty International.

@AmnestyUK @C4Dispatches @Basement_Films @Hind_Gaza @amnesty April 12:  @Hind_Gaza doubles down, justifies her actions, decries “normalization” with Israel, calls dialogue with Israeli peace activists a “crime,” “collaboration with enemies.” /11






April 12: Hind Khoudary lashes out at NYT journalist @IyadAbuheweila for reporting how she informed on Rami Aman to Hamas: “I hope New York Times starts asking people before they highlight them in their articles...” Her denuciation of NYT is then echoed by Hamas TV: /12

April 14: Palestinian entities in print, social media and videos attack UN Watch, PA Minister of Women’s Affairs Amal Hamad praises Khoudary for helping to imprison Rami Aman. “Dr. Hamad expressed her solidarity and full support for Al-Khudari in the face of this campaign...

“Dr. Hamad emphasized the national position of all Palestinians rejecting the issue of normalization, stressing that what Al-Khudari expressed is a national position that expresses the Palestinian national decision.”

“Dr. Hamad added that resisting normalization is important at all times, as it constitutes an effective Israeli weapon used to undermine our struggle for the rights of our people. Anti-normalization, at this time, is an urgent necessity of struggle to protect our cause and its principle.” /19Image
Two months after PA Minister Amal Hamad openly supported the act of informing on Gaza peace activists to get them jailed and tortured by Hamas, the 🇨🇦 government of Justin Trudeau began to publicly endorse her, again and again:

April 14: Anti-Israel activists in Gaza discover that Hind Khoudary—who handed over to Hamas peace activists for the crime of “normalization” with Israelis—had herself written for an Israeli magazine. Khoudary apologizes. /21

“Regarding the issue of +972, at the time of the return marches, you know how weak our Palestinian media was in the English language, and I was trying to convey the picture as much as I could because I felt that I had a very heavy responsibility. I was trying to write as much as I can, publish as much as I can.

“The communication between me and +972 was a Palestinian editor, and seriously, I only knew that +972 was independent, with the right of return against the Israeli occupation, and I thought that this thing was not normalization, especially since I publish my articles as I want and with the Palestinian narrative and no one changes the terms I use.”

She continued: “I was thinking at the time that communicating with institutions like B’Tselem was allowed, for example, and what encouraged me most was that there were many activists who communicated with them and wrote about their concerns. But after I delved deeper into the issue...”

Khoudary added: “I apologize for my articles that were published on +972, even though they were almost a year ago...” alwatanvoice.com/arabic/news/20…Image
April 17: Hind Khoudary, still bitter at he New York Times for reporting her role in the arrest, imprisonment and torture of the Gaza peace activists, calls out departing correspondent @adamrasgon. /22

She just deleted it—but lucky we kept the receipts:
Image
Here are screenshots of tweets deleted now by Hind Khoudary—most of them denouncing any dialogue with Israeli peace activists as a crime. @Hind_Gaza, did you delete these so that news organizations won't be ashamed of your complicity with Hamas? /23
Important 🧵 documenting Hind Khoudary's support for and ties to terrorism. We ask @Channel4News @C4Dispatches @Basement_Films: Is this in compliance with your journalistic ethics and professional standards? /24

Another important 🧵 exposing Hind Khoudary's overt support for and ties to terrorism, by David Collier @mishtal /25
Shame on you @Channel4 @Channel4News @C4Dispatches @Basement_Films for giving a platform to a notorious Hamas shill who handed over Gaza peace activists to torturers, for which she was excommunicated even by a Human Rights Watch official who is extremely critical of Israel. /26
Hind Khoudary urged Hamas to “prove that it does not approve” of Gaza peace activists:

“I hope that summoning Rami Aman and his group is not just a summons. All normalization activities must stop and not expand further. I also hope that there will be an explanatory statement of the measures that will be taken to stop these activities. The government in Gaza must prove that it does not approve of the activities organized by Aman and his friends.” /27

After Hind Khoudary's April 2020 posts to Hamas about Gaza peace activist Rami Aman, they arrested, imprisoned and tortured him. She wrote:
“Oh God, how much I hate Rami Aman, I hate him so much, I really hate him.
He has no shame, this person, oh my God.” /28

BREAKING: For first time, UNRWA's former general counsel James Lindsay testifying before Congress, now exposing the agency's failure to vet staff for terrorist ties. I'm sitting right next to him—it's a damning indictment from the inside like never before.

Image
UNRWA's former general counsel James Lindsay: “It would not be surprising to learn that as many as half of UNRWA’s employees were Hamas supporters—of whom some likely would be Hamas members—which is not that different from what the Israeli government alleged.” /2
UNRWA's former general counsel: “It is simply not true that UNRWA is ‘irreplaceable.’ /3

BREAKING: UN halves estimate of women and children killed in Gaza. As quoted in the article, let me explain how the UN's method for casualty counting in Gaza is the complete opposite of how they act in other conflict situations such as Ukraine. 🧵
nationalpost.com/news/world/isr…
“The UN significantly adjusted Gaza casualty figures, halving the number of women and children previously reported killed. While more than 9,500 women & 14,500 children fatalities were reported by @UNOCHA on May 6, the number was two days later revised significantly downward.” /2
@Mike_Wagenheim @JNS_org: The Director of UNICEF Catherine Russell indicated in mid-March, she was citing Hamas health ministry numbers, 13,000 children had died in Gaza. The UN released totals yesterday showing that less than 8,000 children have died in Gaza as a result of the war, citing the same Hamas health ministry. Can you clarify the process for how those numbers were revised?

@UN_Spokesperson Farhan Haq:  “Yeah, the revisions are taken… you know, as we, of course, in the fog of war, it’s difficult to come up with numbers.  We get numbers from different sources on the ground, and then we try to crosscheck them.  As we crosscheck them, we update the numbers, and we’ll continue to do that as that progresses.

Q:  I mean, it’s almost half. It’s pretty significant.

UN: “Numbers get adjusted many times over the course of a conflict. Once a conflict is done, we’ll have the most accurate figures. But we’re just going with what we can absolutely confirm, which will always be the low end of what the numbers are.”

Q:  So can people consider those numbers reliable having been so off in this occasion?

UN:  “Well, you can consider them reliable from the fact that we’re continually checking them. We’ll continue to do that over the course of the war. But the numbers, you know, ultimately have to be regularly checked so that we can be sure that what we’re putting out is valid.” /3

Meet Haythem “Ethan” Abid. He runs the International Red Cross in Montreal. His job is to be neutral. But Abid marches in “Free Palestine” rallies, posts Hamas videos saying hostages love their captors and accuses Israel of “terrorism” & “genocide.” He says: “Fuck neutral shit.”

2/ Here's the Hamas propaganda video posted by the Red Cross Head of Office:

We ask you, @ICRCPresident Mirjana Spoljaric: When will you fire him? Why were all your ICRC colleagues who saw this silent? Why is 🇺🇸@RedCross giving you $670 million per year? instagram.com/p/CzLWc4HMrcF/

The Swiss Parliament, before they decide whether or not to reinstate funding for UNRWA, has invited me to address their special hearing next week. I will testify as to the warnings we sent over a decade to UNRWA about its staff promotion of terrorism. They ignored every one. 🧵
2/ In September 2015 we warned UNRWA about 12 employees promoting terrorism & antisemitism, including UNRWA teacher Ramy Alshorbasy who promoted a blood libel, and staffer Wael Sallouh who cheered the June 2014 kidnapping and murder of three Israeli teens. unwatch.org/images-of-unrw…
3/ In October 2015, we warned UNRWA about 12 perpetrators including their teacher Hiba Miari who promoted Palestinian stabbing attacks against Israeli Jews & employee Hani Al Ramahi who showed the image of bloody knife with the caption “Stab Zionist dogs.”

On Saturday, the Independent Review into UNRWA's terror ties will release its report. Donors will then decide if to reinstate funding. Just one problem: the entire investigation is rigged. Let's do a deep dive into who the UN picked, and how they admit it's to “provide cover”: 🧵
2/ Let's start with the inquiry chair. UNRWA chief Lazzarini promised to name an “independent entity.” In the end, he chose recently retired French foreign minister Catherine Colonna—just weeks after Lazzarini had showered praise on her, and she on UNRWA.unwatch.org/unrwa-chief-to…Image
@MinColonna @UNLazzarini 3/ Note: when on January 13th Catherine Colonna pledged to UNRWA chief Lazzarini “full support for your work,” which she hailed as “more useful than ever,” this was already 3 days after the world learned that 3,000 UNRWA teachers belonged to a group praising the Hamas massacre.

🇸🇦 Saudi Arabia, which tortures women’s rights activists, was unanimously elected chair of the U.N. Women Rights Commission.

They will preside over the March 2025 annual session attended by thousands.

We are now calling on all women's rights activists to announce they won't go.
2/ Despite some reforms, Saudi Arabia still has a horrific record on women's rights. On 16 November 2022, they arrested fitness instructor Manahel al-Otaibi for tweets supporting women’s rights and posting photos of herself without a black robe. She disappeared in November 2023. Image
3/ Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman touts his 2022 Personal Status Law as a major “leap” toward “women’s empowerment.” In fact, it codifies Saudi discrimination against women in almost every aspect of family life, retaining many harmful features of the male guardianship system. Image
