I'm now seeing all the articles I read posting that retraction. What wild times we live in.

If they are rowing back on that he can’t stand again for President, surely. That’s astonishing.

I agree this isn't a good look, but career ending?

This is absolutely ridiculous. He has fact checkers... fucking use them. This is an embarrassment to his office and a disservice to the real victims of the very real brutality which apparently our world leaders still needed to "spice up".

Netanyahu blamed holocaust on Palestinians and whitewashed Hitler, not very credible source i would say.

It’s not even about fact checking.

He claimed to have seen them personally, he would know outright that he never did see it without the need of a fact checker.

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.


The original article contains 449 words, the summary contains 188 words. Saved 58%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

So Western Heads of States and western mass are spreading Israel's military Lies in complete impunity, and never go back to apologize and exercise more journalistic rigor to information coming from Israel. this is gang banging the weak and gaslighting them when they resist.
