Greetings and Salutations, @BBCWorld .
You have, once again, been bamboozled.

This⤵️ is part of the current leading item on your home page.

Dr Al-Deeb is an interesting guy.

He has a tumblr account - where he posted last year that he had lost his job at Al-Shifa, but that you could help by providing funds for him to study abroad.

It also posted a lot of propaganda straight out of the Hamas PR office. And it's clearly the same guy.

His tumblr account has been quiet since December 31 2024. So maybe he got he got another job - the BBC claims he's at Al-Quds hospital - and no longer needs your money.

Let's see how his GoFundMe is doing. Money is still coming in, but slowly.

Again it says he's seeking to leave Gaza,
and there's the obligatory Hamas propaganda with some obvious lies just in case you mistook him for an honest guy.

This isn't looking like a reliable source, @BBCWorld, but the best is yet to come. Oh yes.😤

The GoFundMe has an update!

After raising the equivalent of US $55,000
(a princely sum in Gaza)
he LEFT GAZA AND NOW IS BERLIN.

And he's busy calling his old buddies @BBCWorld pretending to be at a hospital in Gaza, today, right now.

@EylonALevy @JMPSimor Because there was an explicit partition plan to the contrary which is explicitly cited (twice, moreover) in the text of the Israeli Declaration of Independence.

@EylonALevy @JMPSimor For the hard of understanding, of which there seem to be many, this doesn't answer the question of what the borders should be now.

It simply explains why the principle Mr Levy cited doesn't work. It's a status quo principle. You can't apply it decades later.
@EylonALevy @JMPSimor The Partition Plan, for what it's worth, as set out in 1947, doesn't work either. No one is seriously proposing it be applied now.

Amongst other things, neither the British nor any other external force is about to come in to take care of Jerusalem.

Rumble is in the news again because of JD Vance's stake in it. Time for a quick recap on how that stake is doing.

This is just terrible. They're not growing and they're losing a ton of money, entirely financed by a shrinking cash pile from investors.

Data is directly from their SEC filings. They had their IPO in 2022 and ought to be profitable (or clearly on the cusp of profitability) at this point.

Here's my take on the two biggest factors driving those numbers other than sheer incompetence and a terrible business model. Image
The most interesting part to me is this, which I've been watching for a while now. We get a new data point with Q2 results in 9 days.

They'll be broke by late 2025 at this rate. Image

In a shocking turn of events in which
an always-right person* turns out to be right
(sorry @AuhsdBond, me on this occasion)
a longer video clip shows Gideon "Victim" Falter
is not a victim of the police, but an aggressive asshole.

news.sky.com/story/sky-news…
This guy isn't just some random passer-by. He's virtually made a career out of being confrontational.

If you do that, then sooner or later someone under a lot of stress is going to say something unfortunate, and he got the "I'm a victim"video clip he wanted.

But this is crazy.
Image
Image
There's one bit, already absurdly well-publicized, in which the police look bad and have already apologized twice - not good enough for him, despite the fact he wasn't harmed in any way - and the rest where he's behaving, as usual, like a Grade A Dickhead.

An important thread about the Ghassan Abu Sitta,
a doctor in Gaza
whom Western media are always quoting.

First question.
Where was this press conference given?⤵️
"In the rubble of Al-Ahli Hospital" was widely reported.

The screenshots are a hint.

Until a rocket hit the hospital car park in the evening of October 17, he consistently claimed to be working at Al Shifa , the largest hospital in Gaza,
not the smaller hospital that was hit
which is two miles away.

And yet when the rocket hit the car park,
he was miraculously inside the hospital operating
theatre.

He described how the "ceiling collapsed",
"the wounded started walking towards" him
and he personally saw "hundreds of dead".

For the benefit of Russell Brand fans just emerging from the cave they've been hiding in for the past 20 years..

This was published in 2015.

And there was plenty more over that time.

@LeagueTruth @wokbonds @CGasparino @NotJoshSelig @Stevewa99908610 Checking the accuracy of my advice,
the ambitious fuel mixicologist ⬆️
will want freebase and not crack.

This from "Cocaine Insights", a handy 52-page guide paid for by your international tax dollars
and published by the United Nations.

Never complain the UN don't do anything.
@LeagueTruth @wokbonds @CGasparino @NotJoshSelig @Stevewa99908610 This is actually a new publication and it is way better than the 20 years of previous ones.

I've never had crack in my life and have no plans to, but I am transfixed by the detail.

Tweet-size detail example.
