This guy just walked into the capitol of the United States and criticized the American people for exercising their first amendment right. The audacity.

Immediately after October 7th, there were various sensational and outlandish claims made by Israeli officials that babies were beheaded, put into ovens, murdered in their nurseries, and generally singled out and made to suffer with intentional violence. Since then, no evidence whatsoever has been provided to substantiate these claims and the majority of them have been dropped completely.
UN records indicate that one baby did actually die along with her family after Hamas fighters opened fire into a safe room in Kibbutz Be’eri (page 10), but there were no recorded cases where multiple babies were intentionally targeted and killed in the way that Netanyahu describes.
None of this is to diminish the atrocities that were committed on October 7th, but it is telling that Israel and Netanyahu in particular seem dead set on making the events on that day seem as barbaric as possible in order to somehow justify the large-scale massacring of men, women, and children that is happening in Gaza.
Also a classic:
Claiming a literal kindergarten attendance chart as a “terrorist check-in record”.
What else is Israel lying about if they are using such brazen propaganda?
Those videos were so crazy. I guess Hamas hides their weapons in the MRI room so that they can find them again just by turning it back on?
He is not specifically saying such things, what he says did happen. Some shit got debunked, but not what he says here. So… why call it debunked?
No, it did not happen the way he described it. Firstly, there was a baby, not babies. Secondly, the child was not secreted somewhere alone, found after the parents had been shot and then deliberately killed.
Netanyahu is deliberately embellishing the story in order to heighten the outrage over October 7th, and then trying to frame anyone protesting Israel’s ethnic cleansing in Gaza as a supporter of what happened. It’s disgraceful.
