🧵BOMBSHELL: Hamas’ new March 2025 fatality list quietly drops 3,400 fully “identified” deaths listed in its Aug & Oct 2024 reports—including 1,080 children. These "deaths" never happened. The numbers were falsified—again. Examples, analysis and evidence: 1/Image
What happened? How did 1000s of supposedly confirmed, fully identified deaths just vanish? Were some actually missing persons? Sloppy records? Intentional deception? Hamas’ Ministry of Health was never reliable. Expect Hamas' many “list defenders” to come up with excuses. 2/
Fact is, from day one, Hamas has gamed the fatality data—from including 471 fake “deaths” at al-Ahli Hospital in the official count, to claiming 70% of fatalities were women & children (then quietly backing off). Managed fakery, dressed up as precision—just like in past wars. 3/
When @HJS_Orgpublished “Questionable Counting” by @Mr_Andrew_Fox (to which I contributed), critics claimed the errors in Hamas’ lists were minor—not systemic. Now, with thousands more false deaths exposed, the errors are no doubt systemic. 4/

Is the March 2025 list suddenly credible? No. Dropping names doesn’t equal accuracy. It includes ~8,000 natural deaths; by now it's clear after 16 months Hamas is not keeping a separate list. Hamas may be adding real IDs to match fake casualty claims then removing them later. 5/
Hamas has falsified fatality data in past wars, as this thread shows—despite the claims of its defenders, who wrongly insist Hamas has always been accurate, and even falsely claim that Israel accepts Hamas data as reliable. 6/
For the skeptics: rest of thread shows screenshots of PDFs showing the ID numbers for all 1,080 fatalities of children fully identified by Hamas (names, full IDs, ages) in Aug & Oct 2024 lists (out of 3,374 total including adult deaths), that are now missing from Mar 2025 list: Image
More of the 1080 children who were removed from the fatality list: END Image

🧵GAZA FATALITY UPDATE: Hamas issued new list of 50,021 fatalities. Findings: (a) Fatalities age 13-55 are 72% men (b) Teen soldiers confirmed; males=65% of deaths age 13-17 (c) Natural deaths are ~8,300 of total fatalities. (4) IDF targeted combatants; NO genocide. Analysis: 1/Image
As in prior lists, well known use by Hamas & PIJ of teen combatants as young as 13 is confirmed, with 65% of teen fatalities male. There are ~1,500 excess teen combatants recorded (Silence, of course, from so-called NGOs). Under age 10, fatalities close to 50-50 male/female. 2/ Image
At this point it is certain natural deaths & infant mortality are included in the Hamas fatality list. After 16 months, Hamas and its "Ministry of Health" does not have a hidden separate list of natural deaths. These are ~8,300 since 10/7, based on historical data for Gaza. 3/Image

🧵IDF's strike on Hamas leader Ismail Barhoum at Nasser hospital was legal, in compliance with Geneva Conventions regarding protection of hospitals, distinction, proportionality & warnings. Claims that strike was illegal willfully ignore evidence and int'l law. Full analysis: 1/Image
Barhoum was in Hamas' politburo, its main decision making body directing its policy & activities. It's not just Israel who said this; EU put him under individual sanctions for "financing" Hamas “enabling their violent actions,” corroborating Israeli claims. NOT a civilian. 2/ Image
The US has Barhoum listed as a terrorist under program SDGT which is “Global Terrorism Sanctions Regulations” – he is personally listed as part of Hamas, a US designated terror org. Again, corroborating Israeli claims. 3/ sanctionssearch.ofac.treas.gov/Details.aspx?i…Image

🧵Many anti-Israel biases of the Gaza fatality story are encapsulated in this article citing 50,000 killed. This is willful ignorance on the part of CNN and these journalists. Here is a review of how this article is a gross misrepresentation on many levels: 1/ Image
The Health Ministry IS Hamas. H-A-M-A-S. There is no separate independent entity. The media knows this, everyone knows this, but CNN deliberately obscures this fact. 2/ Image
"Authorities in Gaza" don't just fail to distinguish civilian & combatants, but HAMAS deliberately presents all fatalities as civilian as a core policy of disinformation to sway the media and international opinion. CNN knows this too but does not want to report it. 3/ Image

🧵Hamas’ core war doctrine is the use of human shields to deter attacks against its military assets, see core elements below. Hamas supporters & apologists actively cover up for this strategy with false arguments and fake int’l law. This thread debunks 6 of these falsehoods: 1/Image
FAKE ARGUMENT 1: "Hamas does not force or direct civilians to shield their military so they don't use human shields." This fake argument misrepresents international law. Geneva says upfront, merely the "presence” of civilians, even if they are unware, violates laws of war. Image
FAKE ARGUMENT 2: This strange argument was used recently by @peterbeinart, it goes like this: “Everyone does it so who can really fault Hamas. Do you really expect them to adhere to laws of war?" No, we do not. But then the blame for civilian deaths is on Hamas, not Israel. Image

🧵UNHRC “report” is a new low, a blood libel falsely accusing Israel of “systematic” sexual violence, inverting reality as Hamas committed these crimes. UN disgustingly claims Israel's policy is to rebuild "national masculinity through aggression." Detailed review & analysis: 1/Image
Report relies on 3 key false claims: (1) IDF targeted women & girls by policy; (2) IDF hit medical facilities by policy to stop female reproduction; (3) IDF had Gazans remove clothes not for security reasons, but as sexual violence by policy. See some report section headings: 2/ Image
The FIRST evidence UN cites to “prove” Israel targets women by policy is CNN video of woman shot in Gaza street. The UN "verified" video does not show who shot her. CNN claims IDF was positioned 200m away but that’s it. No actual evidence in video of anything just conjecture. 3/ Image

🧵Nasty “Purim” article by @PeterBeinart uses 3 common & inane arguments to justify Hamas' use of human shields: (1) All insurgent groups use human shields so we can't expect Hamas not to. Hamas would lose quickly otherwise so it's OK... so civilian deaths are Israel's fault! 1/ Image
(2) IDF also uses human shields with HQ in Tel Aviv. Key differences: HQ is clearly marked as military, is solely military & not co-located with civilian uses. Beinart pretends he doesn’t know all this; he knows the Pentagon is also in a civilian area and not a human shield. 2/ Image
(3) Strawman argument: just because Hamas uses human shields does not mean civilians are "fair game" as Beinart puts it. No one argues civilians can be targeted, but human shields means when targeting Hamas civilians WILL be killed. It does not then mean it's Israel's fault. 3/ Image
