On February 5, 2024, a 14-year-old Palestinian approached Israeli Border Police near al-Eizariya, pulled a knife during a stop, and tried to stab an officer. He then ran across the road and was shot dead.
The full police video shows the approach, the knife, the lunge, and the shooting. Yet within hours, cropped versions that cut out the stabbing attempt started circulating. The story flipped: an “unarmed child” executed in cold blood.
Prominent accounts amplified the decontextualized clip and the inversion. Some still recirculate it 2 years later. The full footage was available the same day. The edited version spread further.
This isn’t a one-off. It’s a method. Remove the act of aggression, frame the response as the original crime, and watch institutions and large parts of the X platform treat the lie as contested opinion rather than deliberate fraud.
This is what X has become. It isn’t this platform of truth and free speech it was promised to be. It is simply a platform that amplifies untruths and revisionism while silencing the truth.
With the manner in which X allows lies to thrive and amplifies them, X and its leadership have blood on their hands. A lot of it. Jews across the West have been targeted, stabbed, shot and murdered because of such amplified lies and misinformation. The Bondi Massacre and murders and stabbings in Britain are prime examples.

@theshahofchi@JamieMetzl The worst genociders in history... If Israel wanted to commit genocide with the Arabs in Gaza, they could do it in 5 minutes without exposing a single soldier.
The Gaza war has been a terrible tragedy, sparked by the unconscionable horror of Hamas’s October 7 terrorist massacre but rooted in a much longer conflict in which terrible mistakes have been made on all sides—including multiple credible pathways toward Palestinian statehood that Palestinian and Arab leaders tragically rejected.
After October 7, Israel had both the right and the responsibility to dismantle Hamas’s military infrastructure and avoid the urban-warfare trap Hamas had spent years constructing. Israel also made serious mistakes, including restrictions on humanitarian aid that worsened civilian suffering. Those decisions deserve scrutiny and criticism.
But Hamas bears enormous responsibility for the catastrophe it deliberately engineered. For years, it built hundreds of miles of tunnels beneath Gaza—an extraordinary underground infrastructure capable of providing extensive protection from bombardment. Hamas explicitly said those tunnels were for Gaza’s civilians, even though the tunnels were everywhere and could have been used to save thousands of lives.
That was not merely callous indifference. Hamas deliberately provoked a devastating war and then sought to turn the deaths of the people it governed into a strategic weapon. Yahya Sinwar’s own reported messages described Palestinian civilian deaths as “necessary sacrifices” and calculated that mounting casualties would increase international pressure on Israel. Hamas kept its fighters underground while civilians remained exposed above, embedded military operations within densely populated areas, and exploited the resulting deaths to advance its political and military objectives.
The evidence points to the appalling conclusion that Hamas wanted enormous numbers of Gazan civilians to die because their deaths served its strategy. It embedded its terrorist infrastructure in civilian institutions and treated the people of Gaza as human sacrifices. This was horrific and unconscionable. Palestinians in Gaza are among Hamas’s greatest victims.
War is terrible and must be avoided to the fullest extent possible. But Hamas’s strategy was to force Israel into a painful and costly urban war in one of the most densely populated environments on earth, where Hamas had deliberately embedded much of its military infrastructure among civilians. Israel took extraordinary—and by many measures historically extensive and deeply costly in terms of Israeli casualties—precautions to reduce unnecessary civilian casualties, but even extraordinary precautions cannot prevent innocent people from being killed in a brutal urban war, particularly when the battlefield has been deliberately constructed to place civilians in harm’s way.
None of this diminishes the immense suffering in Gaza. Every innocent Palestinian and Israeli life lost is a tragedy. Israelis and Palestinians both deserve security, dignity, and a peaceful future.
But “genocide” is not a synonym for a horrific war with terrible civilian casualties. It is a specific legal charge requiring proof of an intent to destroy a protected group, in whole or substantial part, as such. the evidence clearly does not establish that Israel possessed such an intent, and the demographic record certainly does not establish genocide on its own.
What happened in Gaza was horrific enough without mischaracterizing it: a devastating war triggered by a monstrous terrorist attack, fought against an enemy that deliberately entrenched itself among civilians and viewed their deaths as strategically useful, with terrible mistakes and immense human suffering along the way.
Cynically calling this tragedy “genocide” does not bring us closer to truth, accountability, reconciliation, or peace. On the contrary, it serves the interests of the adversaries of peace, justice, and meaningful accountability for the many mistakes and terrible decisions that have been made on all sides of this conflict for the better part of a century.
@grok @halotishali @JewishWarrior13 do a field of the color Yale Blue with an open book and the Arabic words النور والحقيقة inscribed upon it in Arabic letters.[1] Below the shield on a scroll appears Yale's official motto, Lux et Veritas (Latin for "Light and Truth").
@VerminusM I assume by Gaza you mean Hamas.. because Hamas believes that Allah wants them to kill all Jews until the Jews hide behind a tree and a rock...
