Be aware of misinformation seen regarding Palestine

[whatswrongwiththeworldddd]

There's a lot of misinformation/propaganda spreading around and this thread is to raise awareness of the ones circulating. Here's one for example:

Please share any you come across.

@wyndon thank you

There's been reports from Gaza that the Israel forces have been digging up new tunnels under Al Shifa hospital. Let's see what the next propaganda will be.

I'm putting this here in case something does come up and the lies are believed.

If Israel were making things up about the hospital would have put a lot more fake photos of weapons than showing instead the truth and what they found, surely? They said the other day they are starting work going through the hospital and other places near by. Sadly they have found the body of a jewish girl who has been buried today who was 19 and a hostage. That certainly suggests the hostages were near by and then moved (except some dead ones whom Hamas left behind).

There seem to be some tunnels near the hospital recently found which isn ot surprising if there are 300 miles of tunnels under Gaza used by terrorists.

If Israel were making things up about the hospital would have put a lot more fake photos of weapons than showing instead the truth and what they found, surely?

The truth of what they found? How do we know that this is the truth? Why would we trust that this time they are being truthful. That's the problem with spending years making things up isn't it? People aren't inclined to believe you. They showed us 'proof' in the form of a video presentation that the Hamas HQ was under the hospital. They used the word 'proof'. So where is it? They've terrorised and killed Drs and Patients for days now and the world said its grand they have proof that the HQ is there. So where is it? Where is this HQ from their video, its been days now, they knew where it was, their 'proof' showed it to us in video format, why can they not find it? All they have to do is follow their proof surely?

@Ohlalalalala your thread has been reinstated.

"Fact or Fiction: Israel needs fake nurses to justify killing Gaza babies" (Opinion Piece) www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conflict-in-the-middle-east/4944590-fact-or-fiction-israel-needs-fake-nurses-to-justify-killing-gaza-babies-opinion-piece

Some of their photos are obviously fake - rocket launchers next to an MRI scanner.

Thinking about the rebuilding costs and reading various articles.

One report says Israel’s decades-long blockade of Gaza has hollowed out its economy, leaving 80% of the population dependent on international aid. It also says nearly half of Gaza’s population is unemployed and that real GDP per capita is close to its lowest level since 1994.

Another report notes that since three-quarters of Palestinian trade is with Israel and the Israeli shekel is the main currency in circulation, Israel has a lot of control over the Palestinian Authorities' fiscal policy.

“Israel collects Palestinian trade taxes because all Palestinian import and export goes through Israel or through Israeli controlled borders,” said Mutasim Elagraa, coordinator of UNCTAD assistance to the Palestinian people.
“Israel effectively controls two-thirds of Palestinian tax revenue and transfers it to the Palestinian government,” he said noting that Israel sometimes delays the transfer or even freezes the transfer, which “makes Palestinians fiscally vulnerable.”
Although the world will need to support Gaza, particularly countries like the US and the UK who supported Israel with the bombing campaign, Israel could be liable under international law.

Yes! Thanks 😊

Although the world will need to support Gaza, particularly countries like the US and the UK who supported Israel with the bombing campaign, Israel could be liable under international law.

I think the thing there is that Israel doesn't care about any International laws. Who would force them to pay up? Israel has literally gotten up and walked out of UN meetings when they hear something they don't like. They accuse humanitarian organisations of being biased or antisemitic when they hear something they don't like. They know that the big guns, the US, UK and Germany will always twist themselves in knots to back them so they just don't care about the law.

This is probably a more relevant question for @Ohlalalalala new thread but seeing as the majority of posters are in here already, why do you believe/trust the propaganda being spouted out by the IDF? This is a genuine question and not intended to be goady in any way.

"Israel now admits some 200 of the bodies they said were Israelis turned out to be "so badly burned" bodies of "Hamas terrorists"!

The question then is: who burned them?!?"

Israel will want the support and money from the UK and US - both countries have elections coming up so public opinion of funding Israel could be an issue.

Valid question.

Unfortunately that's true. Hopefully justice and law will prevail this time (I am an optimistic person 😶)

@Ohlalalalala Valid question

That no one can seem to answer
