Mossad Commentary on X - "π¨ GAZA PHOTOGRAPHER ADMITS HE WITHHELD OCT. 7 FOOTAGE
Prominent Palestinian photographer Motaz Azaiza says he filmed Israeli hostages being abused by crowds on Oct. 7, but deliberately did not publish the footage because he feared Israel could use it to identify and target those involved. He also delivered unusually harsh criticism of Hamas:
• “Show me one Palestinian in Gaza who was protected by Hamas’s weapons. No one.”
• He says Hamas had a chance by Oct. 11, 2023 to accept a deal involving disarmament that could have prevented massive destruction and loss of life.
• He describes a Hamas-run WhatsApp mechanism used to intimidate journalists, circulate their personal details, and coordinate attacks against anyone who crossed the organization.
• Gaza photographers, he says, learned to lower their cameras whenever civilians criticized Hamas because publishing such footage could make them targets.
Azaiza was named to TIME’s 100 most influential people and was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. Now he is describing, in his own words, how much of Gaza’s story never made it onto your screen."
Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib on X - "Motaz Azaiza is forcing a reckoning the “pro‑Palestine” movement never anticipated. Because he’s celebrated by activists, politicians, and journalists and can’t be smeared as a “Zionist shill,” his admission carries weight: Gaza’s journalism space functioned under Hamas’s control, and any reporter who deviated from the group’s narrative risked “disappearing behind the sun.” That single truth reshapes how we understand the stories pushed out of Gaza since October 7 and explains why dissent against Hamas’s rule never surfaced publicly. Western journalists and outsiders, unaware of this coercive ecosystem, ended up amplifying Hamas’s information warfare rather than scrutinizing it."
Leslie Kajomovitz on X - "Listen to Motaz Azaiza in an another interview call Jews dogs, and be more explicit about his excitement at seeing the hostages being brutalized in the streets of Gaza on October 7th. In this interview, he is more explicit also on how the only reason he didn't participate was because he was afraid of Israel, not because he didn't want to. In the same interview he speaks of many things, but in it, he does something he didn't do in his last interview. He confirms he was a member of Hamas before he went to university and joined Fatah. Later he "realized" he "can't be affiliated to any group," because neither faction "works for the sake of Palestinians" @StateDept @SecRubio did Motaz Azaiza disclose his membership with a terror organization in his immigration forms? Why is Motaz Azaiza in America?!? FYI: @EFischberger @EYakoby @chalavyishmael @MaxNordau"
S Sebag Montefiore on X - "BOMBSHELL: Gaza Photojournalist Reveals Hamas Ran a WhatsApp Group to Control War Coverage Motaz Azaiza — once the face of Gaza's war reporting, with nearly 20M followers — says a Hamas-linked WhatsApp group called "Smart" directed media coverage and organized attacks on journalists who broke from its line."
Eyal Yakoby on X - "Motaz Azaiza just admitted that Gaza’s journalists were all in a Hamas WhatsApp group called SMART—where they “managed the discourse and the narrative.” Journalists coordinating the narrative with Hamas should be a massive international scandal. Instead, there’s not a word."
Josh Wolfe on X - "This is INSANE. should be front page news of every US paper. Chance the NYT even mentions it once?"
Eitan Fischberger on X - "So it turns out that Hamas runs a WhatsApp group with all of Gaza’s journalists, where Hamas “managed the discourse and the narrative.” These outlets have "journalists" in Gaza: Reuters, AP, NYT, CNN, Wapo, PBS, NPR, BBC, The Guardian, Al Jazeera, and Drop Site News"
Eylon Levy on X - "Hamas won the information war. Now it’s bragging. Because it’s already won. And nobody will admit they got duped."
Nazi Hunters on X - "“Women here!” “Take off your pants!” “Take off your clothes!” “Spread your legs!” “Don’t make trouble!”
This is the translation guide that Hamas terrorists carried and used during the October 7 massacres, helping them to pronounce these instructions in Hebrew so they could kidnap, rape, and slaughter Jews more efficiently. Never forget."
Alessandra on X - "After 9/11, I believed what they said that Muslims didn’t support. Religion of peace they said. 10/7 seeing so many cheering it on showed me muslim communities have a large scale problem with support for violence & terrorism & hatred of non Muslims which they refuse to address"

The terrorist supporter cope is that genocide isn't defined by killing everyone in sight. But given how loosely genocide can be defined nowadays, wanting to destroy a group and giving one member of it a condom and telling him to use it is also "genocide"
Meme - Barak Ravid @BarakRavid: "Netanyahu: "Israel rejects the Gaza Board of Peace 15-point document. The IDE will not make any withdrawal until Hamas disarms. I mean the heavy weapons, the less heavy weapons, all the weapons. And we are talking about real disarmament, not fictitious disarmament""
Ilan Goldenberg: "There's no example in history of disarmament, demobilization, and reintegration working when one side insists on the other's total surrender before taking any steps. This isn't a recipe for "real disarmament." It's a recipe for perpetuating the stalemate in Gaza. Bibi knows it."
Readers added context they thought people might want to know: "Germany and Japan are a counterexample: both surrendered unconditionally in 1945, after which Allied-led demilitarization and reintegration succeeded, producing stable democracies. This contradicts the claim that no DDR has worked after a demand for total surrender."

Uri Kurlianchik on X - "I'm so tired of hearing Gaza was a defenseless ghetto. At 40,000+ militants, one of the world's largest military tunnel networks, and thousands of rockets, Gaza had a bigger and stronger military than most European states. Gaza was never a concentration camp. It was a fortress."
David Boxenhorn on X - "A fortress, supplied by its enemy. Who would believe it?"

Hamas' own data, which includes some natural deaths and fatalities caused by Hamas itself, sharply contradicts any notion of "genocide.""
"Gaza War Fatalities Per Hamas - May 2026 by Age & Sex
72,835 fatalities as of May 2026
75% of fatalities ages 13-55 are male representing 26,000 excess fatalities
High teen male deaths = child soldiers
69% of fatalities ages 13-17 are male representing 2,900 excess fatalities"
When terrorist supporters go on about how Israel is killing "children", they're really admitting that Hamas uses child soldiers. But of course, Israel is to blame
Meme - Aizenberg @Aizenberg55: "13-year-old Muhammad Al-Qattani was portrayed as an innocent child killed in an IDF strike. But he was another child soldier recruited by Islamic Jihad, probably at age 12. The militarization of Gaza's children by Hamas and PU is never mentioned by those "NGOs" and "experts.""
When terrorist supporters accuse Israel of killing children, at least some of those "children" are actually enemy combatants. But of course, self defence is "genocide" if left wingers hate you, because they want you to be murdered by your enemies as they cheer
Eitan Fischberger on X - "For nearly three years, CPJ helped push the incendiary narrative that Israel was systematically slaughtering journalists. Now CPJ just announced that it has removed another 22 people from its database. Twenty were removed after new research established “engagement in combat," meaning terrorism. That’s on top of 8 it had already removed after determining they were Hamas or PIJ combatants. So CPJ has now removed 28 supposed journalists for literal participation in hostilities. And understand how absurdly narrow CPJ’s standard is. Affiliation with Hamas or PIJ doesn’t disqualify you. Even membership in an armed group doesn’t automatically disqualify you. CPJ only draws the line at actual engagement in combat. Yet even by that ridiculous standard, 28 names failed their test. The review began after Hamas and PIJ themselves published obituaries identifying supposed “journalists” as combatants. And those obituaries keep coming. CPJ’s credibility should be in tatters — for good."
Dr. Maalouf on X - "I was today years old when I learned that an estimated 20,000 deaths from natural causes in Gaza are counted as genocide victims. Apparently, Hamas hasn’t released the natural death numbers since 2023 and automatically includes anyone who dies in the total ‘genocide’ figure."
Olivia Kelly π on X - "96% of Jews in Poland were murdered by the Nazis. That is genocide. 3% of Gaza’s population, mostly male combatants, died in the war they started. That is not genocide."
The cope is that genocide isn't defined by killing everyone in sight. Given how loose the definition of genocide is these days, if you make comments about destroying members of a group and then give one member of the group a condom and sternly tell him to use it, that is also "genocide".
Open Source Intel on X - "NEW: Footage from central Gaza shows an armed operative using a child to carry weapons into a residential building."
AG on X - "Worth noting that the human shield strategy would be pointless if they believed Israel was willing to just target indiscriminately. The only reason to do this is because Hamas/PIJ believe that having a child act as a human shield makes an Israeli action less likely."
Clearly, the fact that the IDF kills some children shows that they're guilty of "genocide"
Senior Hamas official sparks outrage in Gaza after referring to war casualties as 'material calculations' - "A senior Hamas official has drawn widespread anger from Gaza residents after referring to the high death toll in the Strip as “material calculations.” In a recent interview, Qatar-based Hamas senior official Sami Abu Zuhri remarked that the number of births in Gaza — around 50,000 — exceeds the number of war casualties, which he claimed demonstrates that the losses do not reflect the broader picture of the conflict. He added, “The martyrs [killed in the war] — the wombs of Gaza’s women will give birth to twice as many. This is the price that must be paid. If we thought in material terms, we would not be able to hold onto our land.”... During an anti-Hamas protest held yesterday in Khan Younis, demonstrators directly condemned Abu Zuhri’s remarks, chanting: “Oh Abu Zuhri, you disgrace, even the child wants to live.”"

It showed me that you and the rest of the "Free Palestine" crew are clearly cherry-picking images and only posting images of the destruction. I made sure that every image I looked at was taken in 2026 and what I saw is that the majority of Gaza remains untouched by Israel. I encourage anyone reading this to look for yourself and you'll see that these liberal lunatics are lying and only posting images that back up their "genocide" nonsense. Has Israel blown shit up, yes. But it's nowhere near as bad as they're saying it is."

Gazan Maastricht University student faces no criminal investigation over October 7 video - " A Gazan student at Maastricht University who appeared to suggest in a video that he had been involved in the October 7 attack on Israel will not face further criminal investigation. The Public Prosecution Service (OM) and police found no reason to investigate the matter further. After reviewing the video, authorities concluded that no criminal offenses had been committed, including involvement in a terrorist attack, glorification of terrorism, or incitement. Media outlets reported that the student published a video to Instagram on September 26 in which he was watching footage of the attack on TV and saying “this is me” when masked Hamas fighters were on screen. The video has since been deleted."
Time to import more Palestinians
Pro-Palestine protesters defy police over Oct 7 march - "Pro-Palestinian protesters are planning a “provocative” pro-Palestinian march on Oct 7 in defiance of the police... A spokesman for Campaign Against Antisemitism said: “Organising a march on the anniversary of the biggest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust is an outrageous provocation. “It is impossible not to remember how Palestine activists demonstrated on the day of the attack back in 2023 before Israel had even responded. “That’s because the motivation of these hate marches has always had less to do with solidarity with Gaza than with hatred for the world’s only Jewish state. “Almost 60 per cent of Jews would not feel comfortable disclosing their Jewish identity at university, according to our representative polling. This event will do nothing to alleviate those concerns. We are writing to several institutions, including the universities involved, to demand accountability.” Last year, hundreds of students across Britain held Pro-Palestine protests on Oct 7, chanting “long live the intifada”, “from river to the sea, Palestine will be free” and “occupation is a crime, get your hands off Palestine”. The march took place six days after a terror attack at Heaton Park synagogue, which caused the death of two people and the perpetrator."
The cruelty is the point
Ghadi Abou Mjahed on X - "Japan and Germany were completely destroyed in WW2, yet their kids didn’t become terrorists. Stop making excuses for Arabs."
Facebook - "In 1945, Tokyo, Hiroshima, Berlin and Dresden lay in ruins. Millions were dead and millions more were homeless. Within a generation, Japan and Germany had become two of the richest, most peaceful democracies on earth. Suffering is real. It has never forced anyone to become a terrorist. Rebuilding is a choice, and so is killing."
Comments: "And they weren’t perpetual refugees"
Kamel Amin Thaabet on X = "The savagery of October 7 caused too much cognitive dissonance with the progressive image of noble white-hearted Palestinian and wicked Israeli. They NEED the genocide narrative as a psychological corrective to return equilibrium to their internal worldview."
David Bernstein on X - "It's also why they tore down Israeli hostage posters. They have a psychological need to see Palestinians only as victims, and Israelis only as perpetrators."
It's also why many terrorism supporters, if they're not praising it as "resistance", claim that Oct 7 was done by the IDF and go on about the Hannibal Directive. Of course, some of them switch between the two, so it is literally "this is not happening, and it's good that it is", as is usual for left wingers

Mark Changizi on X - "Iranians show footage of piles of bodies to document the January massacre by the Islamic Republic. Because that’s what one does when documenting mass killing. The Holocaust? Mass graves and piles of corpses. Rwanda? Mass graves and human remains. Cambodia? Killing fields filled with skeletons. Srebrenica? Mass graves — so many bodies that investigators could reconstruct how perpetrators dug them up and moved them to secondary graves to hide the crime. Mass killing leaves bodies. But Gaza? Again and again, the visual evidence offered for “gEnOciDe!” is… buildings reduced to rubble."

Jeremy Diamond on X - "We found 24/40 deaths can be traced back to Israeli military actions. That includes direct IDF strikes/gunfire, but also when Israeli military actions led captors to kill their hostages. That's not just us saying that: the IDF has acknowledged that in many of these cases"

Universities finally sound ready to tackle campus antisemitism: Ivison | National Post - "The macabre spectacle of planned pro-Hamas vigils at universities across Canada on Wednesday “honouring our martyrs” may wipe away the last vestiges of public trust in our seats of higher learning. The fact that remembrance on October 7 is being devoted to the perpetrators of murder and rape, rather than their victims, is a sign of how far universities have allowed a Marxian secular worship of “the oppressed” to justify bullying, intimidation and harassment of Jews in Canada... as a review of antisemitic incidents at Toronto Metropolitan University last year by Justice Mary Lou Benotto found, the absence of clear enforcement, combined with ambiguity around free expression, has contributed to the perception that disruption and discrimination carry few consequences. It is possible that individual students were sanctioned after the TMU review, which followed on from the violent disruption of two Jewish-linked events. Pages of the report were redacted on privacy grounds. But the Benotto review concluded that the deteriorating campus climate was the result of the absence of decisive action by the university. The consequences of this inaction are evident in the findings of the Campus Anti-Semitism and Student Experience (CASE) report, commissioned by the federal government. It found 84 per cent of the 900 Jewish students interviewed said antisemitism on campus is a serious problem; 95.7 per cent said they had experienced or witnessed it; 70 per cent said their university does not take antisemitism seriously; and 68 per cent said their campus is not a safe or inclusive place. More than half of those students avoid wearing or displaying Jewish symbols — a damning statistic in a country that trumpets its diversity credentials... York University removed an anti-Israel encampment almost immediately, while other campuses, such as McGill, tolerated them. They quickly became the focal points for antisemitism."
Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib on X - "Is Hamas Becoming a Global Identity Vehicle? Support for Hamas has morphed into a transnational phenomenon that is not just about being “pro-Palestine.” Instead, Hamas and what it represents have become a form of rebellious identity expression and a vessel for a sprawling mix of grievances: ideological, economic, cultural, and psychological. Its jihadist violence is being repackaged as a catch‑all outlet for anti‑Western, anti‑capitalist, anti‑white, and antisemitic politics. Whether it is leftism or Islamism, the “resistance” narrative that Hamas ostensibly represents has become quite a normalized interpretation of how to think about October 7 and the past two decades in Gaza, while erasing Palestinian agency, responsibility, and accountability. The inability to truly understand the complexities and actual details of the Israel and Palestine conflict is why so many support Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, and the Iranian regime, all of whom are somehow seen as correcting or challenging white-centric dominance and colonialism. The third anniversary of October 7 exposed the scale of this shift. Large crowds in American and European cities used the worst day for Jews since the Holocaust and the most disastrous day in Palestinian history to flaunt their support for violent Islamist extremism. To understand the extent to which the “pro-Palestine” industrial complex has mutated and created out-of-control monsters, consider how incredibly damaging and self-sabotaging the pro-Hamas rallies and actions were. They deliberately chose to brand the Palestinian cause as inseparable from the bloodshed, hostage‑taking, and fascistic jihad of 10/7. These Western pro‑Hamas demonstrators are erasing any distinction between Palestinians and a terror organization that has devastated Palestinian society far more than it ever harmed Israelis. Their behavior naturally triggers an instinctive backlash: a hardening of attitudes, a dismissal of Palestinian suffering, and a collapse of sympathy for legitimate Palestinian grievances. Compounding the problem is the statistically confirmed fact that large segments of the Arab, Muslim, and Palestinian diaspora communities have been unable or unwilling to counter this trend. Some have joined it outright, embracing the “resistance” narrative or hiding behind slogans like “this didn’t begin on October 7” to avoid confrontation with the anti‑Zionist machinery that dominates the “pro‑Palestine” space and to not be called “Zionists” or “traitors” by other members of the community. With diaspora communities paralyzed, universities compromised, and basic civic norms eroded, national‑level responses are now essential. Support for Hamas remains strong three years after October 7 and is growing more entrenched. Think ahead five or ten years: persistent economic strain, deeper ideological radicalization, and expanding networks of Islamist and far‑left extremism. What happens when those marching for Hamas begin entering governments, militaries, financial institutions, and other levers of power? What happens when already‑radicalized youth, with no off‑ramps, continue believing the West, Jews, and Zionists are their mortal enemies? Even if a tiny fraction – less than one‑tenth of one percent – turn to violence, the resulting instability could eclipse that of ISIS and al-Qaeda combined. A coordinated national strategy is overdue – not to suppress legitimate debate on Israel and Palestine, but to draw firm boundaries and stop tolerating the intolerable. This video shows just a small sample of pro-Hamas rallies in major US and European cities two days ago, on October 7."
We are still told that no one supports Hamas
Thread by @MorEdge_Insight on Thread Reader App – Thread Reader App - "Someone asked me on DM what roof tapping is. This is what it is. Israel fires a small warning shot onto the roof of a building Hamas is using. No warhead meant to bring it down. Just the knock. Get out. Then the calls, the texts, and the leaflets. Then, if the fighters are still in there, the real strike. This clip is Al Jazeera, live from Gaza, a correspondent in a press vest, and the knock lands on the tower behind her while she is on air. She ducks. The building is still standing. That’s the whole point of the tap. No other army does this. Not the Americans. Not the British. Not the Russians. Not the Arabs who spent the day firing the rockets. Hamas puts the launch sites and the commanders in the apartments, and Israel still knocks on the roof before it hits them. Then the same footage gets played as proof of a war crime. Watch it again. The warning is the explosion. And then come the leaflets. After the knock on the roof comes the paper. The whole sky fills with them. Arabic on one side, a map on the other, the block you are in, the road out, the time you have. So many millions are dropped you can film them falling and write “the whole sky is leaflets” across the clip. Phone calls. Texts. Roof taps. Then this. Israel tells the entire building to empty before it hits the men who turned the building into a launch site. Hamas tells the building to stay, films the paper coming down, and calls the warning a war crime. No other army on earth drops a sky full of instructions on the people it is about to strike. The leaflets are the proof. They just get edited out of the story."
