Exclusive:

Just weeks after @BBCNews is forced to take down a documentary because the narrator was the son of a Hamas official - it completely whitewashes two terrorist families - both tied to key figures in the Islamic Jihad.

Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
The article was written after Israel's recent strikes against the terrorists. The BBC only had one thing in mind - to demonise Israel.

So it uncritically parroted Hamas numbers - and portrayed Israel as bloodthirsty child killers - a classic antisemitic trope. Image
The article was written by Jon Donnison - an anti-Israel hack who clearly knows nothing about Gaza at all. It relies on two fathers - both grieving - and portrays the families as innocent victims of Israeli brutality...

So I want you to meet them. Image
Alaa bu Hihal was the face of the BBC article. On October 9 2023 he posted this, mourning his uncle - Rafat Abu Hilal. Rafat was the commander of the Palestine Revolutionary Committees 'Salah al Din Brigades' - the PRC's military group. So a leader of a Jihadist group in Gaza. Image
I tracked down Abu Hilal's wife. Her name was Afnan Al-Ghannam. On May 23rd 2023 she posted this - mourning her uncle. This is Jihad Shaker al-Ghannam. He was secretary general of the military council of the al-Quds Brigades – Islamic Jihad‘s military wing. Image
These are some of her cousins Image
This is an image from her uncle's funeral - and the man in the blue-grey shirt in the bottom right corner leading the procession - is Afnan Al-Ghannam's father. Image
Just look at this incredible image. The nephew of the military commander of the Palestine Resistance committee closes the deal to marry the niece of the secretary general of the military council of Islamic Jihad.
And this is the man the BBC chose to use for its headline image? Image
That's family one. What about family two?

Father number two is a strange story. We are told Karam Hameid lost his three boys. For some reason the article does not mention he also lost his wife! Did he not tell the BBC, did they edit it out? That omission is just inexplicable.
Her name was Kholoud Bassam Quraiqa (Hamid). Here she is posting about Hassan and Mohammed Image
Her name is important because it was the Bassam Quraiqa house that was targeted. And sure enough - the clan is affiliated to Islamic Jihad. Here is Kholoud mourning the loss of her cousin Kamal Image
And this is Kamal from Islamic Jihad Image
Here is Kholoud mourning other 'martyrs' from the Quraiqa family.. including is Field Commander Hazem Awad Quraiqa. Image
Here she is (before she was a mum) posting an image of her sister Dina.... Image
Here is her sister Dina out with the family Image
None of this is on Israel - this is all on the radical Islamic terror groups. So there you have it. The BBC presented a case of two innocent and grieving families - torn apart by Israeli army thuggery - and the truth is that Israel clearly targeted two terrorist households.
The BBC cannot help itself. But it is not just them. We need an urgent government led inquiry into how our media outlets have become willing puppets to Islamic terror groups. You can read the full story (with additional detail) in this article. david-collier.com/bbc-terrorist-…

Today: A Vermont interfaith group will stage a protest in the Vermont House Chamber and hold events in the state capitol - in defense of a terrorist supporter. Not a peace activist - a terrorist supporter! And he has fooled them all.

Meet the real Mohsen Mahdawi.

Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
Here is Mohsen in a genocidal mood. Posting celebration when Jews were hurt - and then hoping that EVERY JEW on the planet would die. Or liking posts about terrorist violence and burning Jews (which is exactly what we saw on Oct 7). This is Mohsen the @columbia 'hero' unmasked. Image
But Mohsen is mostly about lies. There is a fictional tale Mohsen has told for years. That he saw his best friend killed when he was 10. This cannot be true. No child died in his camp at that time. We have the receipts. This @60minutes @CBSNews clip shows him spreading lies.

We need to discuss the failure of key media outlets & politicians to show the truth behind Palestinian professional student Mohsen Mahdawi.

They made him look like a saint. Sold him to the world unquestioned. It is so dangerous! Why are they not doing their jobs?

Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
What we know about Mohsen Mahdawi because we bothered to look:

1. Made up tragic stories about his past
2. Glorified terrorism
3. Shared Jihadist genocidal antisemitic chants
4. Spent years radicalising students

So let us look at how the media and politicians have failed us.
We can start with @60Minutes from @CBSNews
They let Mohsen describe witnessing the murder of his best friend when he was ten years old - when a simple fact check would have exposed it as a lie.

How could 60 Minutes sell him as a hero if they did not even do the basic checks?

Exclusive:
If you have fallen for the PR blitz surrounding Mohsen Mahdawi, the Palestinian student who loves peace and Jewish people, then sit down and hold onto something.

You’ve been fooled. It is time to meet the real Mohsen Mahdawi Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
The @nytimes painted Mohsen Mahdawi as a saint. Vermont State Senator Becca White fell over herself to call Mohsen her friend. The PR campaign would have you thinking ICE arrested Mother Theresa.
Does nobody look behind the mask? It took me two days to find holes in the story. Image
We start with his back story. Mohsen says he was 10 when his best friend was shot in front of him in the al-Fara refugee camp. I checked the fatalities database for the time period. When he was 10 years old NO CHILDREN AT ALL were killed at his camp.
Something is wrong.

Dear @BBCNews

Will you please just STOP FEEDING US HAMAS PROPAGANDA!!!!!!!

Will you stop PROMOTING the families of senior Hamas terrorists as innocent victims!!

A quick thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
I start with your latest junk. Written by arch Israel hater & amateur hack Jon Donnison.

And no Jon Israel did not say it 'broke the ceasefire because'. There was a timed ceasefire & it ended. Can't you even get basic facts rights?

Seems not because you just wrote this crap Image
Another BBC article (about the 1000th on Gaza) - that points out people - and yes children - die in wartime.

It puts people on our screen who are grieving parents. It is designed to create sympathy and demonise Israel.

The guy front and centre is named as Alaa Abu Hihal

The Royal Television Society has a Royal charter.
It has several US based patrons (are they happy with RTS giving an award to terrorist supporters?)

We need to understand what @RTS_media is doing when they *honour* Palestinian journalists in Gaza.

A short thread: ⬇️⬇️⬇️
Most journos in Gaza are connected to terrorist orgs. It is not hard to prove and I can use Artists for Palestine's own image to do it.

There are 4 journos in the frame here. I didn't choose them - AfP did. Here are 3 of them.
1. Bisan Owda
2. Hind Khoudary
3. Wael al Dadhouh Image
1. Bisan Owda was a PFLP activist. Although both she and the group have been busy trying to hide the evidence.... images of her at PFLP events and in PFLP colours - are still available. Image

Just want to dispose of a few of the weak and transparent excuses being put forward to defend @bbcnews @channel4news and the documentary. Here are seven.

Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
1. 'It is difficult to verify news coming out of Gaza'.

If you know this then how can you justify spending £400k on a documentary knowing you will likely produce unverifiable Hamas propaganda? In other words the BBC is contradicting its own decision making.
2. 'There are no foreign journalists in Gaza - so we couldn't check the information. We did ask nicely several times if the family was Hamas.'

The information was found by a bloke living 10 miles from BBC HQ who had nothing more than a computer and motivation to find the truth. Image
