EXCLUSIVE: @realDailyWire has obtained evidence that challenges ex-Gaza Humanitarian Foundation contractor Tony Aguilar’s viral claim that a Gazan boy named Amir was killed by the IDF on May 28.

Long thread time 👇

First, a review of body cam footage of an American security contractor standing next to Aguilar shows a very different interaction than what has been described by Aguilar in the media.

According to Aguilar, he told the boy, “People care. You're a human being, and people care about you,” before kneeling down, placing his hands on the sides of Amir’s face, and receiving a kiss from him and an English "thank you."

Aguilar on a recent podcast: “He sets his food down, and he places his hands on my face — on the side of my face, on my cheeks — these frail, skeleton, emaciated hands, dirty. And he puts them on my face, and he kissed me. He kissed me, and he said, ‘Thank you,’ in English. Thank you. And he collected his items, and he walked back to the group, and then he was shot at with pepper spray and tear gas and stun grenades and bullets — shot at his feet and in the air — and he runs away, scared.”

I am in a lecture right now hosted by a non-Jewish MIT professor who is giving a seminar about how “connection to Israel is not an essential part of Judaism.”

He’s now showing slides of his mean tweets like it’s a burn book.

“There are many more Christian Zionists than Jewish Zionists, I find that very interesting.”

Yahya Sinwar cited mounting U.S. pressure as a reason for rejecting a very generous hostage deal in late March, according to new documents obtained by the WSJ.

During that same month, Kamala Harris ramped up her pressure against Israel. Coincidence?

Here's what she said⬇️

On March 3, Harris harshly criticized Israel in her Selma, speech, where she demanded an “immediate ceasefire,” calling the images from Gaza “devastating.”

She claimed Palestinians were shot when approaching trucks carrying humanitarian aid. In reality, Palestinians were killed or injured in a stampede.

She inaccurately accused Israel of imposing unnecessary restrictions on humanitarian aid.

Members of the National Security Council reportedly toned down parts of the original speech draft, which was harsher on Israel.

Harvard is sending students to a school with deep terrorist ties this summer.

When I asked them to comment on partnering Birzeit University, which has barred Jews from campus and has a student government run by Hamas, Harvard defended the upcoming program.

THREAD:

The “Palestine Social Medicine Course” is a “three-week intensive summer course is designed to introduce students to the social, structural, political, and historical aspects that determine Palestinian health beyond the biological basis of disease.”

The curriculum content will include hearing from health practitioners, academics, and activists about various topics including “Settler colonialism and its manifestations in Palestine” and “Health and racism,” the website adds.

Birzeit’s students voted for a Hamas-affiliated bloc for its student government for a second year in a row in May.

The Islamic Bloc won 25 of the 51 seats with 4,481 votes in the race that had a 77% voter turnout.

The Bloc said its victory proves students favor “the option of resistance” against Israel, and disapprove of the Palestinian Authority’s policies.

57 anti-Israel students were arrested last night at UMass Amherst after occupying the administration building.

They called police pigs and called for the destruction of Israel.

THREAD: Ye's most offensive and alarming remarks from his Infowars interview today.

Alex Jones tells Ye that he's not a Nazi or Hitler.

Ye responds: “I see good things about Hitler," adding "every human being has something of value that they brought to the table, especially Hitler."

Ye pulls out a net and Yoo-hoo milk to mock Benjamin Netanyahu.

"I'm in the Twilight Zone," says Alex Jones.

Ye goes on to use a high-pitched voice to mock Netanyahu.

Alex Jones gets flustered.
