Someone just asked me for a compilation of @intifada's evidence-based reports on Israeli forces knowingly killing their own people on Oct 7, employing the so-called "Hannibal directive." Here is a thread of some of our reporting.
WHAT WE KNOW is that Israel's southern command was defeated spectacularly on 7 Oct by highly-skilled Palestinian guerrilla fighters; individual IOF units began firing like crazy on their own civilians; and that to cover up these killings, Israeli fabricated disgusting propaganda
This propaganda included relying heavily on racist tropes Israelis and Westerners believe about Arab men: they are barbaric and sexually deviant, can't help themselves around white Israeli women, and they came to slaughter Jews because they're Jews, etc

This is actually terrifying, and one more way that the Israel lobby aligns with classic anti-Semitic white nationalist ideals of defining who is a legitimate American and who isn’t
Kenneth Marcus, who spearheaded the Israel lobby strategy of filing complaints to the DOE claiming that univ's fail to protect Jewish students by not cracking down on Palestine solidarity activism, is now the DOE's top "civil rights" enforcer. This is a war on student activists.
