Here's a quick clue on how to tell new "genocide" reports by fake NGOs @btselem & @PHRIsrael are totally fraudulent:
In 153 pages of combined reports about the Gaza war and Israel's actions, there is literally no mention of Hamas TUNNELS. The word does not appear.
To be 100% accurate: The B'Tselem report on page 69 (not before) quotes an Israeli general saying we will pursue the enemy in "tunnels." The only written use of the word tunnel in either report.
@PHRIsrael claims Israel was wrong about Hamas using hospitals. On page 41, they mention the European Hospital—but since the word “tunnel” literally isn’t used once in the entire 65 page report, there’s no mention of Sinwar hiding under it. The report is pure lies & propaganda.

🧵ALL genocide "reports" rely, as core evidence, on the lie that Gallant called Palestinians “human animals.” There is no evidence for this. He referred to Hamas constantly. The dishonesty by every "genocide expert" like @bartov_omer is beyond belief. See detail on Gallant: 1/
Not once did Gallant call Palestinians “human animals.” There is no quote—none. Ever. Fabricated evidence. Genocide requires fully conclusive proof of intent. This isn’t even close. There are dozens of example where Gallant referred to Hamas. 2/
Oct 7: Gallant's first statement came on 10/7 when he said: “Hamas launched a criminal act… he will realize very quickly he made a grave mistake.” There was no reference to Palestinians or that Palestinians made a mistake. Only Hamas. 3/
🧵Intentional starvation claims in Gaza are a lie. Israel enabled 100 food trucks/day for week ending July 16—38% above pre-war levels. Since 10/7, 1.4M tons of food entered Gaza, enough for 27 months of needs per WFP. That’s not counting GHF aid. Hamas lies, media accepts. 1/
COGAT issues daily truck data by type, tonnage and route. It’s all been provided in detail since 2023 with 2,700 rows of data (fuel, medicine, water, shelter, etc.) It’s notable that ALL claims of “intentional starvation” never dispute this data or offers alternative data. 2/
Gaza reports 66 TOTAL starvation deaths since 10/7—a million miles below famine thresholds. Famine in Gaza would mean 400 deaths/DAY; Phase 4 starts at 200/day. These recent Palestinian-sourced numbers utterly destroy the famine and “intentional starvation” narrative. 3/
🧵Many “genocide scholars” alleging genocide in Gaza didn’t reach that view through careful analysis of the war. They called Israel genocidal long before 10/7. For example, Martin Shaw, now often cited, called Zionism and Israel’s 1948 founding genocidal years ago. Details: 1/
Shaw is therefore not a neutral “genocide expert” evaluating Gaza but an anti-Israel activist. If Israel’s creation & Zionism are genocide, then Gaza is a foregone conclusion. In all his writings since 10/7 he doesn’t engage with facts & analyze—he instead shills for Hamas. 2/
Shaw admits Hamas embeds in the civilian population but instead of blaming Hamas, he excuses it—granting it blanket immunity. He claims Israel’s aim to destroy Hamas is thus illegal and genocidal because civilians will die. So this "expert" just invents international law. 3/
🧵GAZA FATALITY UPDATE: Hamas released a new fatality list on July 15, with 58,000 deaths. It reveals:
➡️Combat-age deaths are 73% male → 18,600 excess
➡️Teens 13-17: 66% male; confirms child combatants
➡️Data contradicts claims of indiscriminate attacks
As in prior lists, the well known use by Hamas & PIJ of teen combatants as young as 13 is confirmed, with 66% of teen fatalities male, almost 2,000 excess teen combatants recorded. Silence, of course, from UN & fake NGOs. Under age 10, fatalities close to 50-50 male/female. 2/
Latest 58,380 fatality count includes NATURAL DEATHS but it’s difficult to discern as it’s all mixed together. After denying this practice for 17 months, Hamas admitted to including natural deaths recently, see thread. More analysis to come. END
🧵Every article by so-called “genocide experts" without exception fabricate or grossly misrepresent quotes by Israeli leaders to invent the required “special intent” for genocide. This week it was Omer Bartov; before it was Raz Segal, Daniel Blatman & Amos Goldberg. More detail:
Raz Segal raced to publish the libel on Oct 13, 2023 even as Israeli bodies were still being collected inside Israel. He admits its “very difficult to prove intent” then lies by misstating Herzog, Netanyahu and even Naftali Bennet. See thread. 2/
Blatman & Goldberg wrote a piece for Haaretz claiming genocide and just fabricated quotes. For example they claim Netanyahu said “we must destroy Amalek” but he only said “remember” Amalek. The know “remember” is not genocidal so they lied. See thread: 3/
🧵Omer Bartov’s NYT piece charging Israel with genocide fails in the opening paragraphs. His five examples of “genocidal intent” by Netanyahu & Gallant are grossly misrepresented or invented. None come anywhere close to meeting the legal bar of “special intent.” Analysis⬇️ 1/
Bartov’s FIRST evidence of genocidal intent? Netanyahu saying the enemy, clearly Hamas, would pay a “huge [immense] price” on the morning of 10/7. See the full statement below, ZERO genocidal intent. Bartov dishonestly invents intent. The genocide case collapses immediately. 2/
The second evidence: Bibi said areas where HAMAS is operating would be turned into rubble. It specifically refers to Hamas. Somehow Bartov twists this into "special intent" to kill the Palestinian people in a genocide. Just outright dishonesty by Bartov. See statement: 3/
