    Hamas never made that claim.

    It was a doctor being interviewed by al-jazeera. Even then it was a mis-translation of what he said that western media just ran with and never fact checked.

    Please stop spreading misinformation to serve as a way to delegitimize one side.
    There are plenty of REAL facts you can use.

        I’ll repeat it here since you seem like you missed reading it.

        It was a doctor being interviewed by al-jazeera. Even then it was a mis-translation of what he said that western media just ran with and never fact checked.

        Then like a dipshit you post me a link to a story by a western media outlet…

        seriously…

        A journalist for the Atlantic, New York magazine, Wired, and other outlets did a write up about it.

        You can literally watch the video and translate it online.

          Broski- you are trusting one guy over a credible news organization. And you cite “silent lunch”.

          Isnt this scraping the bottom?? Do you have any credible sources?

            Please explain what you think the following means? “A journalist for the Atlantic, New York magazine, Wired, and other outlets”

            Never heard of substack either apparently. /smh

            Broski- If you were SO sure it was bs why didn’t you go to the video from al-jazeera and run his interview through a translator? You can do this all yourself, DON’T take my word or the word of the journalist reporting it…
            do it for yourself before you look like more of a dumbass.

            We all know you won’t because it goes against your narrative and you would rather believe a lie that reaffirms your biases and bigotry.

              Having read the supplied article, the author has no information except that kills might be mistranslated. Not to get into the weeds, but it doesn’t dispute the source, nor does it offer more credible information.

              And as a rule of thumb- a single dude publishing a substack doesn’t deserve more credibility than a long time news source. Not that the article supplies and information that might be argued- the whole point is that he didn’t get any information.

                    You have repeatedly demonstrated your inability to read and understand words multiple times in just this comment thread.

                    And continued to do it here once again.
