If information backed up by publicly shared Hamas documents is "unsubstantiated," as The Los Angeles Times suggests, what could possibly constitute substantiation regarding "journalists" moonlighting as terrorists?
Most British media ignored IDF evidence that Anas Al-Sharif, a Hamas commander operating under the guise of an Al Jazeera reporter, was the head of a terrorist cell responsible for rocket attacks. Instead, outlets largely described him as a “journalist,” omitting the long-documented overlap between Hamas operatives and Gaza-based reporters.
The deletion of the telling "occupation forces" slip-up can't conceal the writers' devotion to serving as obedient Hamas mouthpieces. When it comes to Hamas talking points, buzzing flies prove dead bodies. But when it comes to Israeli claims, even weapons can't prove weapons.
