Francesca has been exposed for falsely claiming to be a “lawyer.” She admitted to never passing the Italian bar exam and isn’t registered with the official bar association. Under Italian law, misrepresenting oneself as a lawyer is a crime, punishable by imprisonment and fines. 
The Guardian & +972Mag claim 75% of 6,000 arrested in Gaza are “civilians” is not is not only false, it inverts reality. In reality, the list they use is from Hamas/PIJ. Armed fighters, fake medics & Oct 7 invaders aren’t “civilians.”
The leaked doc instructs to post on the same day, same hashtags, same message. Black front pages, scripted TV, coordinated feeds. T
Never question the UN or big NGOs is the unspoken rule. The “Halo Effect,” the aura of credibility surrounding these organizations—means that their findings were virtually immune to fact-checking and often amplified by the media.
This isn’t new. Calls to invoke Uniting for Peace against Israel keep resurfacing—most recently in 2025’s 10th Emergency Special Session. Advocates claim it bypasses the Security Council, but legally, the GA can only recommend action anything else violates international law. 
Why it matters: This study exposes how Palestinian groups built a unified global advocacy machine—overcoming internal rifts to coordinate messaging. Jewish communities, often reactive and divided, can draw lessons to strengthen strategy and unity in facing this challenge.
Let's start from what the headlines missed. The UN declared “famine” ONLY in GAZA CITY—17 sq miles—not all of Gaza. If famine at that scale truly existed, people could easily walk a few miles. Essentially the UN declared, there is famine in the living room, not in the kitchen” 
The myth: MTG claims US gives Israel a “blank check” of $3.8B/yr to freely fund weapons. False. Aid isn’t charity—it’s strategic: designed to strengthen Israel while preventing it from competing w/ US defense exports.
According to the complaint, senior IDF officials offered “any support necessary, including security protection and coordination” to WFP and OCHA. The response? A flat refusal to discuss coordination. 
SIGAR finds US-funded Afghan aid largely fails to reach people—only 30–40% after taxes, fees, bribery & extortion. $10.9M+ went to Taliban-controlled entities in 2024 audit. Aid system is costly, complex, multi-layered, and riddled with corruption, creating new diversion points. 
Traditionally, IPC declares famine when 30% of kids show acute malnutrition by weight-for-height—a precise, global standard. The July Gaza report changed that for less accurate mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC), cut the threshold to 15%, & dropped other usual criteria. 
On Friday, the new European Media Freedom Act went into effect. Ursula von der Leyen hailed it as a shield for journalists & a key pillar of democracy—a bright European answer to rising authoritarianism. But the law’s true impact goes far beyond these promises. 
On March 9, Israel introduced new legislation: NGOs in Gaza, the West Bank, and East Jerusalem must disclose basic info about their Palestinian staff. Names. Roles. ID numbers. The NGOs are terrified because the infiltration of terrorist in humanitarian work extends beyond UNRWA.
Most see the UN’s alphabet soup of bodies as distinct bodies. But in 1945, only 2 specialized agencies were baked into the UN's core: WHO & UNESCO. Understanding the UN means going back to its roots—not to aid & refugees, but to its original stated goals. 
Trump just cut ties w/ UNESCO—again. This would be the 3r time. US first left UNESCO in 1984 (Reagan: mismanagement, anti-West bias), rejoined 2003 (Bush), defunded in 2011 (Palestine admitted), exited 2017 (anti-Israel bias). Biden rejoined in 2023. Now Trump’s out—again. 
When a 1,500-year-old church in Taybeh burned, church leaders and diplomats blamed Jews within hours. “Settler terror,” cried headlines. But video shows the opposite: Jews ran to fight the fire—not start it.
March 26, 2025: House committees launched inquiries into whether USAID & State Dept. funds backed anti-Netanyahu protests. The memo reveals millions in U.S. grants flowed through nonprofits to destabilize Israel, radicalize youth, & terror-linked groups 
Hitler’s Mein Kampf written while in prison—half memoir, half blueprint for genocide—called Jews the eternal enemy, framed Marxism as a Jewish plot, condemned democracy as decay, & demanded Lebensraum in the East. It envisioned a new Germany through racial purity, violence, & war 
Mainstream media, NGOs & influencers treated Hamas-run sources as neutral—ignoring video proof & non-Hamas reports of Hamas attacks. 75% of major headlines hid Hamas ties, blaming Israel & U.S. aid workers (GHF) while shielding the actual perpetrators. 
Two of the most powerful—and tragic—examples: Revolutionary France & Maoist China. Different eras, ideologies, languages—same arc. Societies taught to hate their inheritance, and in return got collapse, repression, and catastrophe.
