2024-03-17 Van Hollen Says Netanyahu Spreading ‘Flat Out Lies’ About UNRWA U.S. Senator for Maryland Chris Van Hollen continued his defense of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East and its work in Gaza in an appearance on CBS News’ “Face the Nation” on Sunday.
“The claim that Prime Minister [Benjamin] Netanyahu and others are making that somehow UNRWA is a proxy for Hamas are just flat out lies, that’s a flat out lie,” he told journalist Margaret Brennan.
The U.S. was one of many Western countries that paused funding for UNRWA after the agency announced in January that it had fired 12 staffers over Israeli allegations that they had been involved in Hamas’ October 7 attack on Israel. However, some countries including Canada, Sweden, the European Union, and Australia have since restored funding. A report has also emerged that Israel tortured UNRWA staffers into falsely confessing to involvement in the Hamas attack. https://www.commondreams.org/news/van-hollen-netanyahu-lies-unrwa
2024-03-02 BBC investigation reveals IOF edited aerial footage of flour massacre Following the Flour Massacre, the Israeli occupation released aerial footage alleging that Palestinians were martyred due to a “stampede” during aid collection.
A BBC investigation uncovered that the footage was edited and not presented as a continuous sequence, raising suspicions that the IOF might have concealed the part where they opened fire on the people gathered at the Nabulsi Roundabout. BBC Verify has reviewed social media videos, satellite imagery, and IOF drone footage to assemble a “comprehensive understanding” of the information regarding the massacre.
It is worth noting that Mahmoud Awadeyah, a journalist who was at the scene, told the BBC that Israeli vehicles began firing at people upon the arrival of the aid trucks. “Israelis purposefully fired at the men… they were trying to get near the trucks that had the flour,” he said. “They were fired at directly and prevented people to come near those killed.” https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/bbc-investigation-reveals-iof-edited-aerial-footage-of-flour

2023-12-07 Israeli activists say world has ignored Oct. 7 sexual violence against women [MEK Note: They have no proof of any of this outrageous circus of lies. All the mutilated & burned bodies were killed by indiscriminate IDF fire from helicopters and tanks. Hamas is a well-trained and disciplined resistance movement. Under attack by the IDF right from the beginning they certainly had no time to be sexually assaulting women. The women who were tied to a bed and burned to death were collected hostages killed by IDF tank fire. Hamas mission was to take hostages back to Gaza. Unlike Israel which can propagandize fake public support and sympathy, Hamas has to earn world sympathy and support by its behavior and not engage in any of the war crimes they have been accused of on October 7 or since! Most of the civilians on October 7th were killed by the IDF and blamed on Hamas! Any Hamas militant would probably be severely punished for such sexual acts. Nearly 100 women released in hostage exchange have made no such complaints during 2 months captivity. Yet you want to believe during a very hectic October 7th & 8th, Hamas took time to commit atrocities that they never did to women they held in captivity! If you believe this propaganda, you are either brain dead or a true Zionist believer!]
A United Nations commission is investigating potential war crimes on both sides of the Israel-Hamas war. But the UN agency dedicated to gender equality has been sharply criticized for waiting until this month to express alarm over sexual violence perpetrated during the October 7 Hamas attacks. Special correspondent Leila Molana-Allen reports. A warning: The accounts in this story are disturbing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDg15fUws3E
2023-11-27 Report: Israel Knew Real Hamas HQ; Lies Enabled “War of Obliteration of the Population “Although corporate news media have made it clear they don’t buy the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) claim that al-Shifa Hospital has been a cover for a Hamas command and control center and weapons armory, Western media have failed to report a much bigger story.
“The IDF and the Israeli government already knew when they launched their propaganda campaign about al-Shifa that Hamas had no military command and control facility hidden there because it had already found the complex kilometers away.” Porter gives details about the actual Hamas HQ, citing a leak to the Jerusalem Post.
“The real story of the Israeli effort to sell its argument that Hamas took over al-Shifa and other hospitals to coordinate attacks is the massive deception aimed at U.S. media and public opinion in order to justify Israel’s war of obliteration of the population of Gaza. “That campaign of deceit has had the full-throated support of the Biden administration, which stands equally guilty of misleading the American people in its support for an illicit Israeli war.” https://accuracy.org/release/report-israel-knew-real-hamas-hq-lies-enabled-war-of-obliteration-of-the-population/?
