The @AP says Israel is “diplomatically isolated.”

So isolated.
So alone.

But @tamarsternthal’s latest analysis in @washexaminer shows a very different reality.

Receipts below. 🧵
#SoSoAlone Days before Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Feb. 25 visit to Jerusalem, Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu hailed the meeting as advancing:

“economic cooperation, diplomatic cooperation, and security cooperation” — including in high-tech, AI, and quantum.

#SoSoAlone

@AP just described Israel as a “diplomatically isolated nation.”

Israel is diplomatically isolated the way Israel is a hub for world-class bobsledding.

In other words: it’s not. 👇

#DiplomaticallyIsolated For context:

As of Feb. 2023, Israel maintained diplomatic relations with 166 countries.

That’s not “isolated.”
That’s most of the world.
#DiplomaticallyIsolated

🧵THREAD:

@NBCNews aired a 10-minute “video investigation” into Israel’s military accountability.

It spent 9 seconds on Oct. 7 — the event that started the war.

Here’s how the rest of the story was built. Out of 606 seconds, NBC devoted 9 seconds to Oct. 7.

The words "tunnels" and "hostages" were never mentioned.

Everything that followed was framed without that context.

🧵 THREAD:

@BBC repeatedly cited a Gaza hospital director as a humanitarian authority.

What readers weren’t told was already public.

Here’s the part of the story that didn’t make it into BBC coverage. Throughout 2024, the BBC cited Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, director of Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza, as a key medical source on starvation, airstrikes, and hospital conditions.

THREAD: Mossad stole Iran’s nuclear codes.

A bombshell new memoir reveals how and why. 1/ Yossi Cohen, former @MossadIL chief, carefully lifts the curtain on the daring, discipline, and moral drive behind Israel’s intelligence service in The Sword of Freedom: Israel, Mossad, and the Secret War.

THREAD: A terrorist attacked a 🇬🇧 Manchester synagogue this Yom Kippur, killing two Jews.
He shouted, “This is what they get for killing our children.”

That hatred didn’t appear out of nowhere—it grew from media lies comparing Israel to Nazis. 1/ On Oct 2, terrorist Jihad al-Shamie rammed and stabbed High Holiday worshippers at a Manchester synagogue, killing Adrian Daulby (53) and Melvin Cravitz (66).

He linked his crime directly to Israel’s war with Hamas in Gaza.

THREAD: @Brown ’s Federal Settlement doesn’t do enough to tackle antisemitism.

CAMERA is demanding answers. 1/ In July, the Dept. of Education, DOJ & HHS announced a settlement with Brown University over antisemitism complaints, ensuring extra security for Jewish events and partnerships with Israeli academics.

While it sounds promising, this deal barely scratches the surface…

THREAD: Why does the Financial Times (@FT) sound like Al Jazeera? 🤔

Maybe because it’s in business with Hamas’s top sponsor...

Qatar. 1/ Despite some well-circulated myths, the @ft isn’t “owned by Arab money.”

Since 2015, it’s been owned by Japan’s Nikkei.

BUT @FT has a lucrative commercial deal with Qatar — a regime bankrolling Hamas and censoring its own press.

THREAD: The ‘International Association of Genocide Scholars’ sounds serious.

It's not.

$30 buys you membership, dissent is banned, & yet @abcnews reported its anti-Israel vote as fact. 1/ Longtime IAGS member Sara Brown has revealed the group broke its own rules:
🔹 No debate was allowed
🔹 No town hall was held
🔹 Dissenting voices were blocked from its listserv
🔹 Authors of the resolution were kept secret

THREAD: The @Guardian joined an NGO-coordinated campaign to smear Israel as deliberately murdering journalists in Gaza.

Let’s unpack the lies... 1/ Imagine if UK media outlets ran a coordinated campaign, complete with suggested hashtags, urging Hamas to release Israeli hostages.

The outrage over “pro-Israel lobby control” would surely be deafening? 🙄

⚠️Today, Sept 1, @Avaaz & Reporters Without Borders are coordinating over 150 media outlets in at least 50 countries to push a scripted narrative framing Israel as deliberately killing journalists and blocking press freedom. ⚠️This is a centrally organized campaign, timed to influence UN votes on Palestinian statehood later this month [screenshots below].

THREAD: Countless media outlets are whitewashing terrorists as “journalists.”

This lie endangers real reporters, and rewrites history to demonize 🇮🇱 Israel. 1/ In April 2025, Foreign Policy magazine claimed Israel’s war with Hamas “has killed more journalists than WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, and Yugoslavia combined.”

THREAD: Dara Horn’s seminal 2021 essay collection "People Love Dead Jews" argues that the world often prefers to view Jewish people as victims of history, not as living people with rights today.

The United Nations' record is just one painful example of this... 2/ Israel is a democracy that has been engaged in multiple defensive wars.

But the UN has held over 20 urgent sessions on 🇮🇱-more than on Syria’s civil war, China’s Uyghur camps, or Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Unbelievable.

When questioned on @CBSNews about the credibility of the IPC report, @UNICEF's Catherine Russell said of the authors:

"The IPC is an independent organization made up of technical people. They're not political people... It's a very technical assessment." 🔴The UN-backed Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) August reports have come under widespread criticism from Israel and independent analysts for significant problems in methodology and selective use of data.

THREAD: A recent @Guardian front page suggested that “83% of Gaza war dead are civilians”, a claim which collapses under the lightest scrutiny 🔍 1/ On Aug 21, @Guardian's cover story alleged that 🇮🇱Israeli intelligence shows 83% of Gaza’s war dead are civilians.

This headline is not just misleading... But is based on nonsense math and deliberate omissions.

THREAD: The TRUTH about Sally Rooney and 🇵🇸Palestine Action.

Hint, her recent @guardian piece isn't telling you the full story... A lot of things about Sally Rooney are impressive. Her books have sold millions.

Her debut 📘was published when she was 26.

She is one of the most translated authors, w/her novels available in 46+ languages.

🧵THREAD: Amnesty is repeating Hamas propaganda about Anas Al Sharif...

And the media are lapping it up. 1/ On Aug 11, @Amnesty International 🇦🇺 Australia claimed Israel “deliberately assassinated” Al Jazeera’s Anas al-Sharif, referring to it as a “war crime” & even part of “genocide.”

They said 🇮🇱 Israel’s claims about his Hamas role were “entirely unsubstantiated.”

THREAD: How @Haaretz built a false campaign about ‘starvation’ in Gaza. 1/ For nearly 2 years, Haaretz has pushed claims that Israel is deliberately starving Gazans.

Their star witness?

Alex de Waal, who the paper presents as a neutral “famine researcher.”

THREAD: In recent weeks a slew of countries, including the 🇬🇧UK, 🇫🇷France & 🇦🇺Australia, have pledged to recognize "Palestine".

The 🐘elephant in the room?

There is no Palestinian State.

But WHY? 1/ In 1973, Israeli diplomat Abba Eban famously said: “The Arabs never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity.”

Half a century later, much of the press still misses the opportunity to tell readers the truth about that history.

🧵 THREAD:

How Amnesty Lies About Jews & Israel... In its latest press release, Amnesty once again accuses Israel of genocide.

THREAD: Have you heard of the @BBC's secret report into its Israel coverage?

We have... 1/ More than 20 years ago, the @BBC commissioned senior journalist Malcolm Balen to investigate claims of anti-Israel bias.

The result: a 20,000-word document the public has never been allowed to read. 👇
