False! Mohammed Sinwar was (allegedly) killed within a radius of over 500 METERS from that Gazan hospital

Which is about the same distance the IDF Bunker/HQ in Tel-Aviv is located from the Azrieli Shopping Mall, Tel-Aviv Museum of arts & the Assuta Hashalom HOSPITAL🧵 2\ Israel indiscriminately carpet bombed Gaza's European hospital & its surrounding areas up to 500 meters with bunker buster missiles

Israel weaponizes a lethal gas that is a byproduct of those missiles to kill anyone inside targeted tunnels even if distant from the impact area

Devil's in the detail: No! Israel didn't end its starvation policy in Gaza

They just decided to allow 3.3% of the bare minimum amount of aid necessary for human survival, & only temporarily for one week until they set up dystopian "hubs" in Rafah run by armed US mercenaries🧵
2\ Israel makes clear those dystopian aid "hubs" will be set up in Rafah, run by armed US mercenaries, equipped with facial recognition tech for massive surveillance & surrounded by Israeli checkpoints teeming with genocidal soldiers.

This is a trap/bait, not "humanitarian aid"!

Israel claims its alleged assassination attempt of Mohammed Sinwar will "boost hostage deal efforts" & "damage Hamas' capabilities"

Both claims are completely false & the opposite is the only likely result; those assassinations can only sabotage ceasefire talks, prolong war🧵 2\ Hamas currently operates in a decentralized way; each cell acts autonomously & independently from the other in terms of ambushing the IDF

The top Qassam leadership are superfluous, as there's no need for coordination, chain of command or central planning in guerrilla warfare!

On Nakba day, time to debunk Israel's foundational myths with their own words🧵

Myth No 1: "Israel accepted partition, Palestinians rejected"

Israel NEVER accepted partition; they only exploited it as a tactical step towards ethnic cleansing

Ben Gurion is crystal clear on this
2\ Partition would've meant Israel would have a 40% Arab minority in their half of the land

Ben Gurion made clear this was unacceptable to the Zionists. They wanted an "absolute majority" for Jewish Israelis, which could only be established through atrocities & mass expulsion

Israel is using this 2020 picture to legitimize murdering a top Gazan journalist on his hospital bed (double war crime)🧵

Here's the picture's background: Hassan was covering a public event Sinwar held with Gaza youth to discuss national reconciliation

Sinwar approached Hassan, told him he was an excellent journalist & asked him to take a picture of them together.

Sinwar had been away from the public sphere for a long time before that conference, so he wanted this picture to be a message to Israel that he's back.

He chose Hassan because he was a household name in Gaza with a large following; he was the go to person for any updates on Gaza.

Hassan himself was NOT part of Hamas or any other militant group. He NEVER took part in any hostilities that would justify killing him.

Israel murdered him because he was a gatekeeper to a huge amount of evidence of their genocide; he was always the first journalist at any site of a massacre or an airstrike. He would've been a key witness to the ICC & ICJ.

That's why Israel has murdered the largest number of journalists at the fastest pace in human history; to suppress any coverage of the genocide & destroy any evidence of their atrocities after. 2\ Here's Sinwar schmoozing with Egypt's intelligence minister Abbas Kamel, does that render Kamel a legitimate target?

Israel's argument that a single picture a journalist took with the ruler of Gaza is grounds for murder; how many Israeli journalists have pics with Netanyahu?

This "aid" plan is so dystopian, starved Gazans are saying one has to be completely insane to step a foot into those militarized compounds run by American mercenaries in an area fully controlled by the IDF

Gazans, the UN & EU diplomats all see it as a dangerous & criminal trap🧵 1\ Divide & rule: under this "aid" plan, Israel decides who gets food in Gaza & who starves to death

Anyone receiving aid would be "screened" by Israel with an undisclosed secret process

I.e. if you ever wrote a post critical of the genocide, the IDF could blacklist your name

🧵The 1st to predict this inevitability in 1934 was Jewish-German psychologist Erich Neumann, who wrote upon meeting Zionists in Palestine:
"Everything [here] leads to fascism... I fear that all our repressed passions, all our ambitions for power and revenge, all the brutality hidden in us, will come to fruition here... This could result in the 'shadow' finally being released & here in Palestine for the 1st time it could be seen & erupt, because there is no external pressure here. It will certainly not be pleasant" 2\ In 1948, Albert Einstein & Hannah Arendt noticed it quickly & warned that Israel's Haherut party (today Netanyahu's Likud) was akin to "Nazi & Fascist parties" in its "organization, methods, political philosophy & social appeal".

🚨Israel's demand of disarming Hamas is a red herring designed to sabotage any ceasefire talks🧵

Hamas has virtually no offensive weaponry left (e.g. rockets, tunnels crossing into Israel)

They have light weaponry (e.g. rifles & anti-tank missiles)

Another Oct 7 is impossible! 2\ Hamas currently does NOT have the capacity to threaten Israel itself (e.g. rockets)

But they DO have the capacity to maintain a long insurgency *inside* Gaza against the IDF (not Israel itself)

Any serious Israeli analyst would tell you the chances of another Oct 7 are zero!

Getting many questions about the demonstrations in Gaza

So here's my full assessment of the protests; their potential & limitations; genuineness & spontaneity vs outside influence; motives & goals; & their ability to actually challenge Hamas or bring the war close to an end🧵 1\ The protests seem to have started spontaneously in small numbers & limited areas. Their grievances are genuine; people are tired, desperate for the genocide to end at any cost, many want Hamas to step down from gov to take away Israel's pretext for the siege & killing

But...

"Pay for slay" is a deeply racist Israeli trope that Palestinians are so deplorable, they'd want to get killed or imprisoned for life only for a few pennies!

The collaborationist Palestinian Authority NEVER paid anyone to attack Israel!

Israel has an identical prisoner fund🧵 2\ The PA paid financial support to Palestinians maimed or detained by Israel & families of those killed

Israel has an identical fund: "Prisoners of Zion & Families of Martyrs". It gives benefits to those imprisoned or killed for "Zionist activity" abroad or in mandate Palestine

🚨🚨Netanyahu violates the ceasefire deal & declares Israel won’t allow displaced Gazans to return to the North today

The agreement👇 clearly says Israe should allow this unrestricted return of 1 million Gazans on day 7 (today) after the release of 7 female hostages (4 today, 3 last Sunday) 2\ Netanyahu is asking now for an additional female hostage, Arbel Yehoud, to be released today before allowing people back to the north

It’s unknown if Arbel is even alive. If she’s dead, it means her body would only be released at the end of phase 1 (as Israel itself demanded)

Yes, can you imagine? Israel would surely NEVER do such thing 🤡

(I've got a whole 🧵 of those barbarians👇)

2\ It became a Tiktok challenge during the genocide for Israeli soldiers to kidnap Palestinians, torture & humiliate them & force them on camera to wave the Israeli flag &/or sing Israel's national anthem

Just read the "research" cited here by an org whose own co-founder called it "a far-right, deeply anti-Muslim racist organisation, run in the most dictatorial, corrupt & undemocratic fashion & utilized as a propaganda outfit".

As expected their report is a fraud🧵 1\ Author's main assumption is Gaza's causality figure is impossible b/c that'd mean Israel is targeting civilians & there's "no evidence" of this.

The ICC prosecutor literally charged Netanyahu with the Crime against Humanity of extermination for deliberately killing civilians!

🚨Israel is aiding ISIS-linked terrorists & criminals to sow chaos & famine in Gaza:

Shadi al-Sofi, a wanted murderer & son of an informant/collaborator with Israel, & Yasser abu Shabab, a drug dealer, are the main warlords responsible for looting most aid under IDF protection.

They formed gangs of over 200 armed criminals & “established a military like compound” (per the UN) in an emptied "death zone" fully under IDF control, where they looted only this Saturday night about 100 aid trucks at once.

This way Israel can absolve itself of responsibility for its deliberate starvation policy in Gaza and say “look, we’re letting aid in, it’s Hamas’ fault that food doesn’t reach people” (as claimed by Senator Jon Fetterman yesterday).

IDF soldiers never fire at those gang members as they loot aid right in front of Israeli tanks & troops in a closed military zone that no Gazan is allowed into. The IDF only fires at local policemen whenever they try to prevent the looting.

Yasser Abu Shabab was arrested by Gaza's local police multiple times in the past for drug smuggling & trading, which is often facilitated by ISIS groups in Sinai.

Hamas militants attempted to eliminate him yesterday in an attack that killed 11 of his gang, including his brother & partner Fathi & the gang's accountant. 30 others were wounded.

Shadi Al-Sofi murdered in 2020 Jabr al-Qeeq, a PLFP member whom Israel had sentenced to life & imprisoned for 15 years for killing al-Sofi's father during the 1st Intifada for spying on Palestinians for Israel.

Al-Sofi was convicted in a Gazan court & the local police captured him in a special operation in late 2020, before he broke out of prison with the help of ISIS-linked militants & was smuggled out of Gaza to Sinai, then reportedly to Israel's Negev. He returned to Gaza with the IDF ground invasion where he now co-leads the criminal gangs that loot aid & sabotage humanitarian work under IDF protection.
2\ This is the moment Gaza' police captured Shadi al-Sofi in 2020 for murdering Jabr al-Qeeq.

Al-Sofi was sentenced to death in court, before militants broke him out of prison & smuggled him into Sinai in 2021, only to return to Gaza 3 years later with the IDF invasion

🚨Israel is systematically RAPING Palestinians, inc children & elderly, as a weapon of war:

2 journalists provide frightening testimonies about how IDF soldiers would randomly select a group of Gazan hostages, unleash dogs to "tear at their skin & flesh", RAPE them & film it🧵 2\ Israeli soldiers beat to a pulp then RAPED a Gazan hostage with a fire extinguisher, emptied inside him until he lost consciousness! Doesn't speak since

Another was stripped naked, soldiers put a dog on top of him to rip his flesh & electrocuted his genitals with high voltage

🚨🚨Israel engineering a famine in Gaza:
The IDF allows armed criminals to attack, loot & block a large portion of the aid shipments to Gaza.

This happens less than 100 meters from Israeli tanks & soldiers, who only fire at Gazan police whenever they try to stop the looting🧵 2\ Creating "looting zones" is Israel's way of saying "look, we're letting aid into Gaza. It's not our fault there's starvation"

These "looting zones" are fully under Israeli control. If any Gaza civilian tries to approach them, they'd be executed immediately. This is deliberate

Mainstream media is deliberately NOT showing us the other side of the Amsterdam clashes; Israeli hooligans attacking local residents, chanting genocidal slogans & vandalising Palestinian flags.

Classic propaganda & disinformation by omission, followed by selective condemnations.
2\ As always, the story for mainstream media begins as soon as Israelis are attacked, never when they attack. They're always THE victim & only victim. Innocents only persecuted b/c of their faith of ethnicity is the classic narrative!

🚨The moment senior IDF officer was eliminated in Jabaliya by Hamas recycling Israel's own unexploded bombs

Colonel Ehsan Daxa was the commander of the IDF's 401st Brigade (see below a list of their savage war crimes🧵)

Most Hamas missiles come from recycling Israeli bombs
2\ The 401st Brigade is responsible for murdering civilians in broad daylight & bragging about it

Here, soldiers boast of bombing unarmed Palestinians with tank shells in Gaza city

When the genocide ends, I can write a giant book on mainstream media journalists who constantly wasted hours & hours of my & my colleagues time to do unrequited toil & collect indisputable evidence for them of Israeli crimes, only to NEVER publish a single word, ever! 2\ Journalist A last Dec: can you send me geolocation, footage from multiple angles, eyewitnesses, dates... of Israel shooting civilians raising white flags?

They never published a word

A few weeks ago same journalist: can you send me more recent incidents, the story is old now

This was Gaza 5 MONTHS before October 7🧵

Western govs & media will always pretend violence starts ONLY whenever Israelis are attacked. That's when history begins!

B/c we are *expected* to be murdered, crippled & dispossessed & keep quiet. That's "peace" to them, that's normal! 2\ This was Gaza 5 MONTHS before Oct 7:
Israel bombs a shelter for people with disabilities & special needs in Jabaliya on May 13, 2023

Did you see any reference to this in a single mainstream media outlet or in a single speech by a US or EU leader?

54% of Palestinians still support October 7 a year later.

The 2 most vital questions are: what do they exactly support? & why? I spent months interviewing dozens of Palestinians on this🧵

1- Support for October 7 does NOT mean support for Hamas or atrocities against civilians

There are currently two October 7s in people's minds; one that Israel and pro-Israeli crowds see of pure evil, which focuses solely on the killing & kidnapping of civilians, omitting everything else.

The other Oct 7 that 54% of Palestinians voice support for, which is the attacks on military targets that broke Israel’s image of invincibility & the "prison break" moment of defeating Gaza's confinement.

90% of the Palestinian supporters of Oct 7 "believe Hamas men did not commit” alleged or documented atrocities from that day (per the source of that poll).

That is b/c Oct 7 is understood to have consisted of 2 waves (something acknowledged by the ICC Chief Prosecutor). The 1st wave was made of elite Hamas "Nukhba" militants & predominantly focused on Israeli military bases surrounding Gaza.

The 2nd wave formed spontaneously once the news broke out in Gaza & anyone with a gun rushed to the fence, including members of 6 other armed factions & non-Nukhba Hamas individuals as well as Gaza’s riff-raffs & hooligans & curious spectators. This wave had no central command, prior plans, coordination, or set goals, which prompted even Hamas’ own Yahia Sinwar to acknowledge that “things went out of control” (per WSJ).

Also, the wave of attacks on Israeli Kibbutzism on October 7 are clouded to many Palestinians by doubt over how much of the atrocity narratives is accurate. This is in light of debuked disinformation Israel’s government deliberately tried to spread as well as Israeli reports of “numerous” incidents of friendly fire & activating the “hannibal protocol” which authorizes the IDF to thwart suspected kidnapping attempts by killing everyone at the scene. Add to this Israel’s strict military censorship over what is allowed to be published. 2- Why do 54% of Palestinians still support Oct 7 a year later?

80% of those Palestinians do so b/c it “has put the Palestinian issue at the center of attention & eliminated years of neglect” (per the poll's source). This sentiment stems from a context of Gazans suffering slow death for 2 decades under Israel's siege while the world looked the other way.

In their support for Oct 7, many Palestinians cite the desperate necessity to disrupt an excruciating 17-year-long siege on Gaza that had already rendered the enclave “uninhabitable” by 2020 & pushed many futureless yet highly educated youth to the brink of suicide.

They also bring up a profound sense of isolation & abandonment that preceded this war where Palestinians’ plight was relegated to the sidelines of international discourse; seen as a mere hurdle on the path to Israeli-Arab normalization, which deepened the fear that Palestinians' suffering would persist indefinitely.

Compounding this was an increased sense of existential threat under Israel’s most far-right government in history, due to rising attacks by Israeli settlers & the IDF across the West Bank, with 2022 and 2023 marking the deadliest years for Palestinians since records began in 2005, and Israel’s largest land theft for settlements in decades.
