Israel-Hamas Conflict: Biden Reports Photos of 'Terrorists Beheading Children,' IDF Yet to Confirm

Just a reminder that the last time we heard stories about people murdering innocent babies, it was complete bullshit. Keep your grains of salt handy.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nayirah_testimony

“In her testimony, Nayirah claimed that after the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait she had witnessed Iraqi soldiers take babies out of incubators in a Kuwaiti hospital, remove the incubators and leave the babies to die.

Her story was initially corroborated by Amnesty International, a British-based global NGO, which published a report about the supposed killings[3] and testimony from evacuees. Following the liberation of Kuwait, reporters were given access to the country. An ABC report found that “patients, including premature babies, did die, when many of Kuwait’s nurses and doctors … fled” but Iraqi troops “almost certainly had not stolen hospital incubators and left hundreds of Kuwaiti babies to die.”[4] Amnesty International USA reacted by issuing a correction, with executive director John Healey subsequently accusing the Bush administration of “opportunistic manipulation of the international human rights movement”.[5]”

I think if it were true, we’d have posts on twitter by now.

You serious? If there’s posts on Twitter that’d lessen the likelihood that it’s true.

For some reason I read that like a mobile app name.

“Join Blender of Babies using code JIHAD and get 1000 diamonds and the Junior Juicer for free!”

And Gaddaffi gave his troops Viagra and ordered them to rape women.

These kinds of propagandistic fabrications are used to manufacture consent for atrocities. Atrocities like bombing an open air prison of over two million people, half of whom are children, like the Gaza Strip.

It’s always confusing keeping up with what Israel is saying…

But I’m pretty sure they unofficially leaked to foreign media this was happening en mass to every child.

Then said it might have happened to a child.

And now are saying that they’ve never officially said it happened to anyone.

It’s the same shit Israel always does with international incidents. They make outrageous claims and pressure world leaders to comment before the real news is out.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

---

President Joe Biden addressed a roundtable of Jewish community leaders at the White House on Wednesday, calling the Hamas attack “the deadliest day for Jews since the Holocaust” and confirming reports of “terrorists beheading children.”

The president called the attack an act of “sheer evil,” and emphasized his administration’s support for Israel amid its war with Hamas.

“Women, children, toddlers, and elderly were brutally butchered in an ISIS way of action and we are we are [sic] aware of the heinous acts Hamas is capable of,” the spokesperson wrote in response to questions from the outlet.

Family members of U.S. citizens believed to be taken hostage during Hamas‘ Israel incursion this past weekend have expressed frustration over the U.S. government’s recovery efforts.

Relatives of missing persons with dual U.S.-Israeli citizenship begged the Biden administration and Israeli government to do more to negotiate the releases of their loved ones.

“It’s a war, so we realize that there are a number of things that are important on a national level,” Jonathan Polin — whose 23-year-old son Hersh Goldberg-Polin disappeared after attending a music festival near Gaza that Hamas attacked — told the Los Angeles Times.
