The failure to disclose the narrator of this documentary was a Hamas official’s son is of course an egregious breach of BBC’s ethics and standards.
Nonetheless, candidly, as a PhD student in linguistics/machine translation, I think that this deliberate mistranslation to hide genocidal antisemitism is the far graver issue with respect to this documentary. It is the single worst breach of professional translator ethics I have ever seen.
The fact that there has been barely a whisper within the interpreting/translating field about this is most telling. Most telling indeed.
BREAKING: Gazans are pleading with the world to stop Hamas from continuing public executions, saying that hundreds have been murdered in just the past 72 hours.
Where is the media?
Where are all of the Western ‘pro-Palestinians?’
🔴 BREAKING
Gazans have reported that it was in fact Hamas that murdered Salah Al-Jafari (Mar FAFO) in order to secure the $10 million+ he had pocketed for himself through “humanitarian donations”
They’ve executed their own propagandists for money.
It has now been announced that the body of Inbar Hayman, who was the last remaining female hostage in Gaza, was returned to Israel last night.
She was kidnapped alive and murdered in captivity.
She can finally be laid to rest.
May her memory be a blessing.
He lost his leg due to self suicide attack that killed 3 person while he survived due to immediate medical treatment he got from the same people he tried to kill
Two years. Two years passed since the last moment I saw Avinatan, the love of my life. Two years since the moment terrorists kidnapped us, put me on a motorcycle, and tore me away from Avinatan before the eyes of the entire world.
From that moment, our journey in captivity was separated. I was held captive with children, women, and the elderly, while Avinatan was held alone. I was mostly kept inside houses, while Avinatan was only in the tunnels. Hamas released videos and signs of life from me, while there was no information at all about Avinatan. I was held captive by Hamas for 246 days, while Avinatan was held for 738 days. I came back in a heroic rescue operation, and Avinatan returned in a deal.
But both of us, against all odds, came home and were reunited!
I cannot put into words the range of emotions I felt when I saw him for the first time after so long. Each of us faced death countless times, and yet, after two years apart, we are finally taking our first steps together again in the State of Israel.
At last, we can begin our healing together. The recovery will be long; we still haven’t truly processed what has happened here over these past two years. But we won. We won our personal war, and the war of all those who fought alongside us to reach this moment. And now, the time has come to begin our shared journey together.
I want to say a huge thank you, first and foremost, to the @IDF soldiers and security forces who have been fighting for so long and risk their lives for us every single day. Thank you to our family, friends, and to the people of Israel, Am
Yisrael, who raised their voices when we couldn’t speak. To the people around the world who embraced us, to all the incredible individuals who supported us through the hardest times and never lost hope throughout this long period. To the US government, which opened its doors to me and was always there to listen, especially @SEPeaceMissions Steve Witkoff, @jaredkushner, and the exceptional, President @realDonaldTrump.
To all the people who too stood beside our hostages and understood that light must overcome darkness.
We will never forget the fallen and the murdered, and we will not stop fighting until every fallen soldier and hostage is brought home for a proper burial in Israel.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
This could never have happened without you.
We are back ❤️
Wait. You're telling me that 26,000 Gazan kids were able to take high school exams on functioning laptops in the midst of a genocide? And dress in clean, well-cared-for clothes for a celebration video with fresh flowers just days after that genocide stopped?
Gaza is amazing 😍
These new forces were created after Trump’s plan was signed in Egypt. When you only know how to kill, not to live, how to destroy, not to build, this is what follows. Israel rescued its hostages and simply stepped back, and the free Palestinians began killing each other for power and wealth. Hamas, desperate to crown itself the updated occupier, now wants to build its own settlements in Gaza. Dozens have been slaughtered by Hamas in just 72 hours.
No UN cries. No human rights marches.
Last year, @MosabHasanYOSEF predicted exactly what we are now witnessing in Gaza.
"... if they didn't have Israel as their common enemy, they would kill each other."
The two deceased hostages who were returned to Israel last night 💔
🕯️ Inbar Hayman, 27
🕯️ Sgt. Maj. Muhammad el-Atrash, 39
We will never forget you.
May their memories be a blessing forever.
🔴 BREAKING
Horrifying new details have emerged regarding the captivity of Avinatan Or.
He has shared that he was kept inside a Cage the entire time he was there. Only 1.8 metres tall.
Even worse, he was handcuffed to the bars alone, could not move and was left in darkness and isolation the entire time.
He has lost over 40% bodyweight and has severe atrophy in his muscles.

To my friends and followers. Imagine going to a Music festival with friends, a festival for peace, and all hell breaks loose.
Terrorists murder and rape your friends. Then they get to you and your girlfriend.
Your girlfriend is ripped from your arms at gunpoint. She is placed on a motobike and she’s driven away by the terrorists.
You’re then thrown in a dungeon in terror tunnels deep underground, placed in a cage and handcuffed to the spot for 2 years in utter darkness. Starved. Tortured.
Not knowing whether your loved one has survived.
Not knowing whether anyone has survived.
He has been to hell and back.
We are all with you Avinatan. You are strong. May our prayers of healing reach you.
NEW HORRIFIC DETAILS ON ALON OHEL’S CAPTIVITY:
- Alon Ohel was kept in the same tunnel for almost the entire two years.
- Like all other hostages, he was starved, deprived of water, and denied basic hygiene.
- He didn’t see the sun for nearly his entire captivity.
- He was kept in chains the entire time.
- Alon’s left eye was damaged, and he has shrapnel in his body.
- About 40 days ago, when the IDF announced a ground operation in Gaza City, Hamas moved him for hours to a tunnel in central Gaza, using him as a human shield.
Hamas hoped Israel would either kill Alon while targeting terrorists or halt operations to protect the hostages—either outcome would serve their twisted objectives.
The psychological terror inflicted on Alon Ohel never ceased for a single moment.
Eden Yerushalmi’s birthday.
She would have been 26.
Eden Yerushalmi weighed only 36kg when her dead body was found in a tunnel with a bullet in the head.
Hamas starved Eden, made her record a propaganda video and then murdered her execution style. All because she was Jewish.
May her memory be a blessing 🕯️
