Maps and documents recovered from the bodies of Hamas attackers reveal a coordinated plan to target children and take hostages inside an Israeli village near Gaza.
Clearly a very controversial comment I’m replying to here but I say it has the right idea. Whenever you see a claim consider the source of the claim before you import it and its implications wholesale into your world-view. If only people practiced this attitude more.
You should see why this is important no matter if you lean pro-Israel or pro-Palestinian. On a subreddit that I won’t name, a highly-upvoted response to one of the atrocious images that emerged of the attack aftermath went: “that image is fake, there was a twitter community response to it saying so”. A twitter community response! That’s settled then! If your credulity for believing things is a function of how much you want to believe those things, you will only become stupider with time.
I know enough to condemn Hamas purely based on facts that are not in dispute. All those festival-goers are not somehow secretly active IDF combatants. They are not somehow magically alive. Israel did not fabricate the dead babies.
Dubious. “We found these plans on their bodies.”
Maybe, maybe not.
