PSA: Don't take any piece of reporting from CNN's @Tamaraqiblawi seriously.

@AuhsdBond did a little digging and found some shocking posts from her past, starting with this gem. But it gets worse 🧵 Image
.@tamaraqiblawi used to write for the Hezbollah-affiliated Al-Akhbar.
Image
Image
Where she effectively acted as Hezbollah leader Hasan Nasrallah's stenographer
Image
Image
Anyone who calls themselves a "big fan" of legitimate crazy person Ali Abunimah should not be employed by a mainstream news outlet Image
And last, but certainly not least, @tamaraqiblawi attended fancy Hamas shindigs.

This is not an objective journalist, @CNN.

She is a propagandist for terrorist organizations. And you hired her to do investigations for you

@tamaraqiblawi @CNN Update: additional receipts from the excellent @Osint613

@tamaraqiblawi @CNN @Osint613 It keeps getting worse. H/T @AuhsdBond Image

At the risk of stating the obvious, @nickturse's new report in the @CostsOfWar about Palestinian journalists is flaming hot garbage that doesn't even attempt to address the fact that virtually the entire media apparatus in Gaza is dominated by Hamas.

Let's begin, shall we? 🧵 Image
First off, it's worth noting that any report relying on data from @pressfreedom or Al Jazeera—as this one does—is doomed from the outset.

In the case of Al Jazeera, dozens of its "journalists" are confirmed terrorists, and it was even run by former Hamas official Wadah Khanfar Image
Here's info on 20 Al Jazeera "journalists," many of whom are terrorists:

Meet Qatari Education Minister Lolwah Alkhater.

Alkhater was extremely quick to condemn the killing of Hamas terror-journo Hossam Shabat.

So quick, in fact, that it got me wondering: What else has she said about Israel and Hamas? 🧵 Image
First off, she wrote a poem for deceased Hamas leader and October 7th mastermind Yahya Sinwar Image
She was also a huge fan of Ismail Haniyeh, who she referred to as a "righteous servant" and a man of "miracles" Image

🧵 In honor of Witkoff’s interview with Tucker, here’s a look at some of the greatest hits from Qatar’s “decent, moderate, and well-motivated” government, over the last year alone:

1. Building in Doha lit up to commemorate the assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh Image
2. Sheikha Moza bint Nasser, the mother of Qatari Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, glorifies Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar upon his death Image
3. Qatari state-run media praising Hamas Image

Was doing some research and came across ANOTHER “journalist” who invaded Israel on October 7th.

His name is Mohammed Salama. And since March 2024, he's been working for Al Jazeera 🧵 Image
He has 143k followers on Instagram Image
His Facebook page shows that his Telegram channel is called “Gaza News Network.”

So what’s inside the Telegram channel, aside from scores of pictures and videos celebrating Hamas and Islamic Jihad?

Well, let's turn to his posts from October 7th. Image

Earlier today, the IDF said it struck a terror cell in Gaza. allegedly killing eight people. But the UK-based charity Al Khair Foundation claims those killed were actually volunteers and journalists documenting their work.

Let's break down what we know so far 🧵 Image
Firstly, in July 2024, the IDF eliminated a Hamas commander doubling as a director in the foundation, which the IDF stated “transfers funds to terrorist organizations, with the disguise of humanitarian activity.”

So already, I'd be skeptical of anything the foundation claims Image
In terms of the "journalists" who were killed, while I haven’t done a deep dive into all of them, it's worth noting that at least two of them have ties to terrorism:

Mahmoud Al-Sarraj (محمود السراج)​ and Bilal Abu Matar (بلال أبو مطر)

Meet Heba Farouk Mahfouz, a reporter in the @washingtonpost's Cairo Bureau.

Since the start of 2025, all 13 of the articles she's written have focused on Israel and Hamas.

The problem? She actually supports Hamas, and thinks Israel shouldn't exist. Let's dive in 🧵 Image
Call me old-fashioned, but I think it’s wildly inappropriate for a journalist to report on a country she believes is “illegal” and shouldn’t exist Image
Doubling down on the "Israel being illegal" thing Image
