Philip Weiss, the Jewish ex-New York Instances reporter, says Jews dominate American media—and use their dominance to guard Israel. Living proof: As Israel massacres the civilian inhabitants of Gaza, Jewish-dominated American media blame the victims. Lurid atrocity tales about Hamas’s Al-Aqsa Storm operation on October 7, none with any evident foundation in reality, have satisfied many ignorant Individuals to assist Israel’s genocide.
Israel is well-known to grab each conceivable alternative to propagandize. If substantial numbers of rapes had actually occurred on October 7, wouldn’t the entire world have heard a grossly exaggerated model of them by October 8?
But it surely wasn’t till December, greater than six weeks after preliminary studies of “40 beheaded infants” and “infants roasted in ovens” had been uncovered as propaganda lies, that Israel’s hasbara machine immediately started fabricating claims of alleged rapes by Hamas fighters. Oddly, and tellingly, no such claims had been made through the two months instantly following the raid. It wasn’t till mid-December that Israeli propagandists immediately claimed to have found that rapes had occurred on October 7. And it wasn’t till December 31 that these claims had been taken significantly by The New York Instances.
The Instances’ top-of-the-front-page headline “Screams with out Phrases” ought to have been “Screams with out Proof.” The story, based mostly on “analysis” by a rabidly genocidal Israeli non-journalist named Anat Schwartz, is constructed round claims that an Israeli girl named Gal Abdush was raped and killed by Hamas fighters. Just one downside: Abdush was not raped, and her relations realize it.
How did non-rape-victim Gail Abdush grow to be the centerpiece of a mendacity, genocide-inciting New York Instances article? The entire excruciating story is advised in The Intercept’s “Between the Hammer and the Anvil: The Story Behind the New York Instances October 7 Exposé.” Evidently the Instances employed an Israeli intelligence operative, Anat Schwartz, to hawk a predetermined rape narrative. Schwartz had no prior reporting expertise, however she hated Palestinian “human animals” with a ardour in response to her Twitter feed. Apparently that burning, genocidal hatred, and her Israeli intelligence credentials, had been all of the {qualifications} she wanted to moonlight as a New York Instances journalist.
Schwartz searched Israel excessive and low for any proof of Hamas rapes on October 7 and got here up empty. The Intercept notes that in a podcast interview “Schwartz particulars her in depth efforts to get affirmation from Israeli hospitals, rape disaster facilities, trauma restoration amenities, and intercourse assault hotlines in Israel, in addition to her incapability to get a single affirmation from any of them. ‘She was advised there had been no complaints product of sexual assaults,’ the Instances spokesperson acknowledged.” Not a shred of forensic proof, she found, supported even a single rape allegation.
Confronted with the issue that there was no credible proof in any way of any sexual assaults, Schwartz turned to identified fabricators and infamous serial liars, like an nameless Israeli Air Power official who was subsequently caught telling ludicrous tall tales, and the thoroughly-discredited ultra-Orthodox fanatics of Zaka, a self-styled “rescue group” that has been the laughingstock of Israel for years. One other such lunatic—a mendacious IDF rabbi named Shari Mendes—had been caught inventing B-grade horror fantasies like “A child was minimize out of a pregnant girl and beheaded after which the mom was beheaded,” solely to be subsequently uncovered by Israeli authorities who confirmed that no such occasions occurred. But the hysterical liar Mendes grew to become Schwartz’s key supply for the New York Instances story.
Immediately, greater than two months after the New York Instances tall story introduced the problem to the world’s consideration, it’s clear that there isn’t any convincing proof that even a single rape occurred on October 7. Your complete hoax was woven out of the transparently bogus statements of unhealthy liars.
Since rapes are widespread in wartime (and since Israel is thought to routinely sexually abuse Palestinians by the tens of hundreds) it’s in actual fact fairly outstanding that Hamas has for all intents and functions been licensed, by advantage of thorough investigations which have come up empty, as probably the primary rape-free military in human historical past.
One other outstanding proven fact that has emerged from the Hamas rape hoax scandal is that Israeli propagandists have been compelled to depend on such amazingly incompetent liars. Couldn’t they discover any expert liars to invent extra credible, internally constant fabrications?
Sadly, warfare propaganda (and genocide propaganda) doesn’t should be true, and even believable, to work. It targets the feelings, not the mind. So the lots of of thousands and thousands of people that get their obscure impressions of what’s taking place on the earth from Western media have had the hypnotic suggestion planted deep of their unconscious minds that Hamas and the Palestinian resistance are diabolical rapists.
