Alleged “confessions” by two Palestinians in Israeli custody filmed seemingly admitting to multiple rapes, murders, and kidnappings on October 7, do not match the events of that day, are contradicted by copious evidence, and were likely coerced through torture. US and British media are running with the stories regardless.
Yet another malnutrition death; Gazans surrounded by sewage, garbage, insects; starvation setting in; out of 10,000+ medical evacuations needed, 19 permitted to leave; Gaza’s ambulance rescue service about to stop due to lack of fuel; Biden admin about to release part of suspended bomb shipment; Israeli soldiers’ actions; Congress votes to conceal Gaza death toll; much more.
If, over eight months into the war on Gaza, you are still obsessed with the violence of October 7th and the alarming situation in which dozens of Israeli prisoners in Gaza still find themselves – this is for you.
More evidence indicates widespread Israeli friendly fire on Oct 7th; another Palestinian journalist killed; Israeli admission that Hamas isn’t going anywhere; teenager killed in West Bank; Israeli prison deaths, torture, re-arrests; Palestinian female journalist’s award rescinded after pressure; Israeli liberal groups blocking food to Gaza; some in US baffled by Netanyahu’s comments against Biden; more.

An hour-long documentary by award-winning British journalist Richard Sanders and Al Jazeera’s Investigative Unit provides a detailed examination of the October 7 attack on Israel. The months’ long investigation found that many claims repeated by politicians and western media, including mass rape and killings of babies, were false.
Times have been rough for Israel, thanks to a UN vote to halt arms sales, a Human Rights Watch war crime report, an angrier than usual Biden, a shake-up in the military ranks, and global scrutiny of AI targeting of people in Gaza. Meanwhile, Israel killing of Gazans and West Bank Palestinians continues, released Gaza captives show signs of torture – and another October 7th “friendly fire” incident is identified
