Nadav Shoshani (@LTC_Shoshani) April 24, 2024Israeli government spokesman Avi Hyman told Fox News Digital, “Hamas libels know no limits. It’s sad to see how many news organizations are still so quick to copy and paste Hamas’s lies for clickbait. The IDF will continue to target Hamas while avoiding civilian casualties with precision likely to have never been seen in the history of warfare.” Middle East expert Tom Gross told Fox Digital that “Hamas has a long track record of fabricating the truth that puts even Al-Qaeda or Isis to shame,” and yet media outlets such as CNN still take the reports at face value.Gross added, “CNN was all too eager to give credence to the latest Hamas blood libel against the Jewish state. ”He added, “When historians come to examine why there has been such a sharp increase in antisemitism in America this year, they may well examine the role of some media in encouraging it.”Read US State Department Stabs Israel in the Back, Twists the Knife anti-Israel biasCNNGaza hospitalMass gravePalestinian propaganda
