Journalist Ishay Cohen published and erased a fake story provided to him by the Israeli military spokesperson, but a prominent Israeli propaganda account is still promoting it.
So many things which haven’t been verified or were even retracted just keep floating around. It is possible that some thought the crucial thing is to shape the narrative--create enormous shock value and don’t worry about the actual details. This seems to have backfired in a truly horrible way, in which all the credibility has been brought into question. Things that are verified by all the best evidence one can have such as multiple eyewitnesses and film are now doubted. I can’t figure out who would think it is a good idea to keep doing this given the results. A lot of bad things happened that there is no doubt about so why are you throwing other, doubtful things.
In addition, there’s sometimes a reluctance to provide evidence. Claiming terrible events occurred that you claim you don’t have to verify while also asserting disprovable falsehoods in a situation where you want people to understand the seriousness of is such a bad idea I was wondering if it was an intentional propaganda tactic that we are unfamiliar with--like ‘destroy your own credibility and then if people doubt you they can be accused of being unfair’ or ‘create tremendous confusion about evidence so that people will start to doubt whatever they learn.’ But I don’t think it is! So what ARE they doing? And why?
No, I am saying that that was all very bad. So I don’t understand why they would go ahead and put out videos that are easily debunked. They mixed in dubious claims with real claims This was a terrible decision.

No so why are they throwing out false things up into the media? To make people more likely to doubt them? Because that is what will happen.
Do you think Israel behaves like it cares about human life, even Israeli life? I don't see it, sorry. Their propaganda is an insult to the victims.
I reported post on X. If they reject my report, I will get the chance to detail what the issue is
