THREAD: Once again...

@BBC
@CNN
@nytimes
@NBCNews
@WSJ
@SkyNews
@TheTimes
@DailyMail
& @abcnews all decided to demonize Israel, without reporting the full facts.

1/ On July 21 Hamas appeared to be broke.

It couldn’t pay fighters or “death benefits," and @washingtonpost said the terror group was facing its worst crisis in 40 years.

A ceasefire was even on the table, then the headlines hit...

@washingtonpost 2/ Gazan sources admitted Hamas was:

— Profiting off stolen aid
— Extorting merchants
— Threatening to kill aid workers
— Demanding the shutdown of the U.S. & Israeli-ran Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, which blocked its racket.

@washingtonpost 3/ 📅 On July 22 Hamas rejected a ceasefire.

It issued new demands, including the right to resume looting aid.

Instead of holding Hamas accountable…

@washingtonpost 4/ From July 23rd onwards global media launched a pressure campaign, but not against Hamas.

@washingtonpost 5/ @BBC
@CNN
@nytimes
@NBCNews
@WSJ
@SkyNews
@TheTimes
@DailyMail
& @abcnews
all decide to demonize Israel, while IGNORING key facts about Hamas’s aid theft, rejection of ceasefires, and financial collapse?

@washingtonpost @BBC @CNN @nytimes @NBCNews @WSJ @SkyNews @thetimes @DailyMail @abcnews 6/ Many ran with photos of one disabled child, photographed repeatedly.

📌 FEW disclosed he had cerebral palsy hypoxemia, and was born with a serious genetic disorder.
📌 None asked why Hamas was rejecting ceasefires.
📌 None exposed the aid-theft racket.

@washingtonpost @BBC @CNN @nytimes @NBCNews @WSJ @SkyNews @thetimes @DailyMail @abcnews 7/ And as @mishtal explains, the media did not use the other photos in the set which show the rest of the family.

@washingtonpost @BBC @CNN @nytimes @NBCNews @WSJ @SkyNews @thetimes @DailyMail @abcnews @mishtal 8/ Within days, Israel was forced into a “humanitarian pause”, a ceasefire for nothing.

❌No hostages freed.

❌No Hamas disarmament.

Just global pressure echoing Hamas’s own talking points.

@washingtonpost @BBC @CNN @nytimes @NBCNews @WSJ @SkyNews @thetimes @DailyMail @abcnews @mishtal 9/ The war, which Hamas could barely afford, was suddenly resuscitated. Suffering continued not despite the media frenzy but because of it.

@washingtonpost @BBC @CNN @nytimes @NBCNews @WSJ @SkyNews @thetimes @DailyMail @abcnews @mishtal 10/ John Spencer of @WarInstitute said, “There is no historical precedent for a military providing the level of direct aid to an enemy population that Israel has provided to Gaza.”

But you’d never know that from the front pages...

@washingtonpost @BBC @CNN @nytimes @NBCNews @WSJ @SkyNews @thetimes @DailyMail @abcnews @mishtal @WarInstitute 11/ The press had a choice:

Report truthfully on Hamas’s collapse and crimes…

Or spin a narrative that demonised Israel and helped revive a terrorist regime.

They chose propaganda and blood libel.
