On July 27, 2025, David Collier posted about media complicity in the promotion of a libel against Israel that involved a photo of a tragically sick, emaciated Palestinian baby named Mohammed. The photo was originally taken by the Gaza-based photographer Ahmed Jihad Ibrahim Al-arini and uploaded to his Instagram account on July 22 – framed, falsely, as how Gaza was gripped by ‘mass starvation’ due to alleged Israeli restrictions on aid.
The 10,000-word feature called "Crimes of the Century" by Suzy Hansen is not investigative journalism; it’s agitprop that fits right into Hamas’ campaign to vilify the Jewish state as genocidal and guilty of shattering the entire global legal order. Filled with factual errors, distortions and misrepresentations, the piece projects Hamas’ genocidal mission onto its victims.
In the LA Times, Rabbi Aryeh Cohen castigates the alleged sins of the American Jewish community for "indiscriminately support[ing] the state of Israel, even though in January the International Court of Justice found it plausible that the Israeli government was committing genocide." In fact, that the ICJ in no way determined that Israel is plausibly committing genocide.
In dozens of stories, AP committed one of the most egregious journalistic transgressions: misattributing a false quote to a source. Tamar Sternthal explains in Times of Israel how a bogus ICJ quote alleging “plausible risk of genocide” in Gaza found its way into AP reporting, and how CAMERA put an end to it.
After a vague "clarification," the article is still misleading as to the frequency of the use of this weapon. Military expert John Spencer called it "a very commonly used tool."
When the International Court of Justice issued an order on January 26 in the “genocide” case between South Africa and Israel, it soon became common knowledge that the ICJ had found it “plausible” that Israel was committing “genocide.” This common knowledge, however, was in fact a myth.
In response to communication from CAMERA, Bloomberg commendably moves swiftly to remove an incendiary News Now podcast headline referring to "Israel Genocide."
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.
UPDATE: Following CAMERA action, MSN News removed from its platform a fake news story from a Sierra Leone news outlet which had fabricated that several Palestinians died Friday from tear gas inhalation.
The Times of Israel updated its piece after suggesting police lied about being pelted with objects. The new piece reflects reporting that police prevented funeral attendees from making off with the casket against the family's wishes.
