France pays 20% for the campaign of lies run by the NGO @rsf.org @pressefreiheit.bsky.social @rsfsuisse.bsky.social; 40% more comes from other governments - 🇪🇺 🇩🇪 🇬🇧 🇺🇸 etc. Follow the money, stop the NGO industry hate.

Key omissions in usual "blame Israel" narrative: 1) Hamas command center with operatives, rockets, other arms hiding in what was supposed to be a civilian only humanitarian zone. 2) Multiple lethal rocket attacks vs Israeli civilians launched from humanitarian zone - each a war crime. FYI BBCVerify

Tonight is the sixth night of Hanukkah, yet six of our most precious lights are gone.

Hersh, Ori, Eden, Almog, Alex, Carmel—starved and tortured by Hamas for almost a year only to be cruelly executed in a tunnel.

May we never forget their light 💔

The imminent collapse of the Assad regime can be traced to October 8 2023, when Tehran's proxy (Hezbollah) - reinforced the heinous Hamas attack vs. Israel. Hezbollah & the IRGC were essential in propping up Assad. 11 months later, the IDF began to tear Hezbollah apart, also weakening Assad.

Syrian rebel troops are reportedly pouring into Damascus City. It looks like Bashar al-Assad is on the verge of being overthrown — a major defeat for both Russia and Iran.

Here is #NGOMonitor's detailed analysis of the @amnestyuk.bsky.social "genocide" farce. Probably took us more time to deconstruct their incoherent screed than it took them to string together the usual lawfare propaganda slogans, myths, and antisemitic dog whistles.

Amnesty’s Genocide Inversion: A Preliminary Analysis
On December 5, 2024, Amnesty International is scheduled to publish a document accusing Israel of committing genocide in Gaza.

To manipulate media coverage,
hate propagandists @amnestyuk.bsky.social sent allied journalists embargoed text. They are under no obligation to play this game, and are encouraged to avoid whitewashing this genocide inversion farce. Here is the embargoed 6 pg summary for non-allied journos etc.

🧵Under facade of "investigative report," (fake embargoed until Dec 5 00:01 GMT) Amnesty does genocide inversion, promotes violent Jew hate, erases Hamas atrocities, turns unverifiable stories into "evidence" & twists law beyond recognition. Hate propaganda under the facade of "human rights." >>

The Hobbesian "state of nature" and "war of all against all" in Syria are reminder of the snake oil sold by the IHL / ICC hucksters, con-artists, Jew-haters, and propagandists - @andrewstroehlein.bsky.social, @alonso-gd.bsky.social etc. Those unable to destroy their genocidal enemies are slaughtered

Alternatively, people who identify as Arabs, speak Arabic, mostly Moslem etc - are colonial settlers from Arabia (many via Syria whose families moved south following the late 19th and early 20th century Zionist-led economic growth).

Nov 29 1947: UN resolution 181 adopted. 2 states for 2 peoples - Jews and Arabs. Jews agreed, Arabs "fly into rage," prepare war to "throw the Jews into the sea." 77 years later, Palestinian Arabs (now with Iranian regime allies) continue rejection, terror atrocities, war.

Fan mail on LinkedIn when I posted something about my focus on editing Jewish books because we are being blacklisted in the literary community. Kind of proves the point.

There is no peace agreement. The goal of the Tehran regime & proxy terror armies (Hezbollah, Houthis, etc) remains the destruction of Israel (actual genocide). In response, and based on the lessons of the past 14 months, Israel will act with force and preemptively whenever its survival is threatened

Big win for Netanyahu - in exchange for agreeing to let France participate in the Lebanon ceasefire monitoring group (expected to be largely useless, but that's a side issue), Emmanuel Macron withdraws support from the ICC arrest warrant farce.

Eitan Fischberger: Take a look at the "indomitable" Palestinian NGOs that UN's Francesca Albanese credits for the ICC decision to issue arrest warrants against Israel. Every one of them is run by terrorists. Credit to NGO Monitor for much of this info. ngo-monitor.org/reports/pflp...

5) For 15 years (since 2009 Goldstone Gaza report farce) much of the Israeli legal establishment, including senior judges & academics, relied on fact-based argumentation (principle of "complementarity") and ignored or severely understated the power politics -- a very costly error in judgement.
profgerald.bsky.social
4) The US never joined the ICC, even under Obama and Biden, and Congressional leaders will sanction ICC officials. Other governments will eventually follow -- by 2028, the continued existence of the ICC is unlikely.
profgerald.bsky.social
2) Mirroring UN hypocrisy, the ICC structure is overly political and controlled by dictatorships & the 55 Islamic bloc - the appointment of "judges" and prosecutor, the choice of "cases", recognition of "Palestine" etc

1) Today's ICC bogus affirmation of jurisdiction, and immediate issuing of warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant, highlight the overt politics & hypocrisy. On Oct 7, (and for 76+ years), Israelis have been the target of brutal war & mass terror - ICC lawfare is another weapon>

Thread: On the ICC's pseudo-legal facade (lawfare), the threat to arrest Netanyahu, Gallant and other Israelis, the central role of corrupt NGOs (Ken Roth, #HRW, #Amnesty, etal) in this farce, and whether the ICC will survive....

My latest - Human Rights Hypocrisy: #HRW's bogus "report" rewards terror, demonizes Israel and enables antisemism. In the propaganda strategy perfected by Kenneth Roth, NGOs surround themselves with a halo effect based on false images of altruism & political neutrality

Human rights hypocrisy: 'Forced displacement' in, Hamas out - opinion
The combination of falsely accusing Israel of war crimes and ignoring the 1949 Geneva Convention’s prohibition on using civilians and civilian infrastructure for war highlights HRW’s hypocrisy.

Clinging to the "2 state solution" slogan goes along with the macro-damaging illusion that the US civil rights movement is somehow comparable to Israel-Palestinian issues.

Tom Friedman has earned a place in the pantheon of failed "peace processors." He's still Trumpeting the "two state solution" slogan 13 months after the Oct 7 atrocities reminded all that Palestinian Arab rejectionism, terror and a state do not go together. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/19/o...
