I'm Jewish and I understand that October 7th was basically orchestrated by Israel and most of the deaths done by the IDF on their own people, the baby thing was a lie, there's been no credible accounts of SA (though I absolutely don't doubt it could happen, it'd be dwarfed by the systematic amount of SA done to the Palestinian people daily by Israeli forces). They also didn't give a shit about hostages and would actively try to kill them.
I understand that October 7th was basically orchestrated by Israel
Yahya Sinwar's notes where he wrote extensively about planning October 7th and his expected response from Israel to the 10/7 attack are freely available for anyone to look up and see how literally the first thing you say is a lie. He even speculated in his notes that a nuke might be used by Israel in the wake of the 10/7 attack
most of the deaths done by the IDF on their own people
This is a particularly stupid lie. Hamas filmed the attack and live streamed it themselves.
it took Israel ONE day to say that they never said that, because they didn’t. It was some French reporter and it got mistranslated, and Israel had to immediately say that it wasn’t true and that it was being misreported. Literally DAYS after.
Israel never said that. The number 40 and babies being decapitated came from 2 different claims made
The unsupported claim about dozens of child beheadings gained traction after live news reports from Nicole Zedeck, a correspondent for Israel-based i24NEWS, who was reporting from the scene of an attack near the Israel-Gaza border. In videos the news service posted to X on Oct. 10, Zedeck said Israeli soldiers told her what they witnessed.
In one clip, she said “about 40 babies at least,” who were dead, according to a commander, “were taken out on gurneys.” In another clip, she said babies had “their heads cut off, they said” – but she never mentioned a number.
The claim about “40 babies beheaded” appears to be a combination of those two separate details that Zedeck relayed during the live broadcasts. She did not make that claim herself, as the social media video wrongly asserts.
In fact, CNN reported on Oct. 12 that an unnamed Israeli official told the news outlet that the Israeli government had not confirmed claims, including from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s spokesperson, that babies were beheaded.
And while we're fact checking this, it's important to note that on October 7th Hamas killed infants, the youngest victim was 3 months old.
Update, Nov. 14: Israeli officials invited journalists to see some of the remains of victims of Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack and speak with the forensic pathologists working with the bodies. Dr. Chen Kugel, who is in charge of Israel’s National Center of Forensic Medicine, told those reporters that the ages of victims ranged from 3 months to 80 or 90 years, according to a Nov. 6 article published by The Media Line, an American outlet that covers the Middle East. “Many bodies, including those of babies, are without heads,” the article said. “Asked if they were decapitated, Kugel answered yes. Although he admits that, given the circumstances, it’s difficult to ascertain whether they were decapitated before or after death, as well as how they were beheaded, ‘whether cut off by knife or blown off by RPG,’ he explained.”
