10:02 am
tonight on expose, the israeli occupation forces attack on rafah was presented to the world as successful rescue operation, when in reality it was a blatant attack on the last of safe haven for palestinian civilians in gaza. now zianists israeli media accused their prime minister benjamin netanyahu of lying to the... world when he speaks about taking out hamas or releasing all the hostages, and 97% of arab respondents felt psychological stress during the war in gaza, while 92% believe the palestinian cause is issue for all arabs and not just the palestinian people. welcome to expose, the show that leaves no stone unturned.
10:03 am
ladies and gents, welcome to expose. now, the israeli occupations military launched a wave of air raids and artillery fire in southern gaza, forcing palestinians to flee overcrowded rafah in advance of feared ground invasion that world leaders have already condemned. however, condemnation does not find its way. western and zianist media platforms, rather whitewashing israeli entity crime seems to be the go-to story for most of those platform. let us hear from fuad itayim, our broadcast expert and writer at the cradle for more about it in fake news expose. now the israeli occupation forces carried out massacre in rafah last week as they portrayed it as victorious rescue operation that matched their american. super bowl ad theme,
10:04 am
while the hostages were actually not rescued on the 12th of february, they were rescued on the 2nd of february. now fuad, that sounds like a scene from a b-rated hollywood movie, if i'm correct here, what happened exactly? okay, so since the massacre rafa last week, which killed 100 people, over 100 people, including women and children, uh, we've seen a lot of reports that the the prisoners, the israeli prisoners that they said were freeed during that military operation, as they called it, were actually released um earlier than they said, so let's take a look at this euro news clip about it. let's see that. two men taken captive by hamas on the 7th of october were rescued on monday by israeli military. during the early morning raid, israel carried out air strikes that the hamas run health ministry said killed around 100 people in the southern city of rafa in gaza. the two men, luis har and fernando marman had been kidnapped. in the kabuts of near yitzak
10:05 am
and had spent 128 days in captivity, but according to some social media users, har and marman were not free during this assault on monday, but were actually rescued by the israel defense forces or the idf more than a month ago. some shared what they claim is a screenshot of an article in harat's an israeli newspaper which says the two hostages were released in an operation by the idf on the second. of february 2024. others tweeted this screenshot of another alleged article appearing this time in the times of israel, which claims one of the hostages, lewis hart, was rescued in december 2023. some believe this is proof israel staged the fake hostage liberation as excuse to attack the city of raffa. we looked at the harat's website and we found the original article about the hostages released, and it does say the two men were released. on the 12th of february,
10:06 am
so the correct date, this means the screenshot that has been circulating online has been doctored. as for the second screenshot which shows the times of israel article, well we can check using a tool called wayback machine which shows us how a web page has been modified over time. so f, what we just watched was a report by viewer news that says that even zis media was saying that the operation might not have happened in february 12, actually in february 2 or in december, but they then r what they said, what was that about? uh, listen, it's very possible that uh thats went in and changed the date afterwards, because at the end of the day we know that israely media subject to strict military censorship laws, so if the army says they have to change something, they're going to have to change it, but there was actually a mayadeen report that came out afterwards that said that these two prisoners, first of all they were released, they were actually released on the 12th of february, but not in heroic military op, heroic military operation like the israeli said, these two captives were according to the report w actually being held not by hamas
10:07 am
but by a palestinian family in rafah wow and the story is that the israelis agreed to deal where they would pay a sum of money for these to the family for these prisoners so that might have been possibly what happened. instead of what israel said, what do you have more for us on that? the next thing we have is this cbn video report which jumps directly into israeli propaganda about rafah, it's talking about how hamas rules the city, how the uh the city of rafah is key to hamas's survival, and it goes to talk about you, these stories of hamas diverding humanitarian aid, having a stranglehold over aid, so let's take a look, let's see that video, israel's operation in darapa has begun with air strikes, since it's on the egyptian. prime minister netanyahu promised coordination with egypt. for now, hamas rules rafa, key city to its survival. some analysts believe hamas uses the area to keep a strangle hold on the humanitarian aid coming into gaza, major way to control the people of gaza. hamas uses
10:08 am
more than million gazans who were fled to rafa as human shields. nbc is reporting israel is open to allowing hamas mastermind yet. sin war to go into exile and exchange for the release of all the hostages and the end of hamas rule in the gaza strip. wow, so what happened right there? well, they're basically saying with zero evidence that hamas has some kind of stranglehold over humanitarian aid and rafah and that this is uh how hamas controls the population of gaza and the palestinian people. actually, the other day it was reported that even us intelligence believes there's no evidence for any such thing. no evidence, even us intelligence said it, there's no evidence that hamas diverts humanitarian aid, has a stranglehold it in any way or uses it for an for its own benefit, that seems uh weird enough, so the next thing we have is a cbs reporter uh sitting down for an interview with what she says is a hamas commander in
10:09 am
the occupied west bank, of course hamas's presence in the occupied west bank is used by western media to justify more violence there, let's take a look, well let's see that video, support for hamas has bord from 14 to 42% since october 7th, according to a recent poll. we met a hamas commander at undisclosed location in the west bank. are you a wanted man? i am indeed. calling himself abu abid, he joined nine years ago when he was just 16. almost half that time was spent in jail, now he is a hamas recruiter. are you seeing more young people joining hamas here in the west bank since october 7? how about she? for sure, all the palestinian people are standing my hamas. i give the fighters guidance, when israeli forces enter, i tell them what to do
10:10 am
and how to open fire. so far, we are supposed to believe that debora pata actually met with a hamas reporter in the west bang, is that supposedly true? uh, well, as we can tell from the first sentence, uh, "the accent sounds entirely fake, anyone who speaks arabic will know that, and we also know from the past, especially the last few months, is that israel regularly uses crisis actors and impersonators, uh, when they want when they want to portray evidence for something that they don't have, it is true uh, that's not to say that there isn't hamas in the west bank, there is hamas in the west bank, there is palestinian islamic jihad, there's al-aqsa marters brigade, there are many, many affiliates of the gaza resistance in the west bank, but they don't look like this, and they don't sound like this, and of course..." too busy resisting the occupation to sit down with news team of this kind. definitely i second that, but i want to thank you very much for your analysis with today for being with us. ladies and gents, let's move to mainstream media expose. when we or any other
10:11 am
media platform says that the israeli regime represented by its prime minister benjamin netanyahu lies about their genocide in gaza. about killing hamas leaders in gaza or about saving their hostages, we don't say it out of spite, we simply repeat what the leaders of the israely regime themselves are saying. with us is miss julia qasim, our mainstream media expert to tell us more about this. thank you very much for being with us, julia, what do you have for us today? thank you, marwa, hello, uh, well, indeed, the zionist media has been all over the place, accusing the zionist pm benjamin netanyahu of lying to the israeli public, the israeli occupation public. and the world when he speaks about talking about hamas, taking them out or uh releasing all the hostages, which everybody knows at this point is um, not true. designist jerusalem post for one quoted former iof deputy chief jaren saying that when prime minister benjamin netanyahu tells
10:12 am
the israeli entity public that it is possible to kill entire hamas leadership and to save all the israeli hostages at all time, he's lying. so speaking from reichman university, golan said that the... yahoo's cabinet must first return the hostages, which is necessitated by stopping the aggression on gaza, um, only later can they help, can they hope to uh reach hamas with the key being prevent? preventing hamas from retaining uh control over gazah, but of course this is necessitated by the seasfire that the zianist entity has rejected three times. so golant in the piece also even accused netanyahu's policy of weakening the palestinian authority and stabilizing hamas in 2009 as being one of the key sources leading to the october 7th israely entity failure to stop hamas's operation. so now he's pinning what happened in october 7 on the benjamin antonio government to begin with. right. also going full circle in this narrative that he inadverdently propped up hamas's power, which
10:13 am
is false narrative that you hear all the time. um, but as the continuous series of whitewashing the zionist crimes against the palestinian people goes on, the wall street journal published an opinion piece written by none other than the zince entity president himself, isaac herzog. it's entitled the case against israel rests on lies. so it claims that south africa grossly distorted in its presentation, quote by herzog himself uh to the icj in its uh ongoing investigation of the israeli genocide so in this piece herzag was clearly frustrated because south africa was very tensitive to his words taken from news conference on october 12th just five days after the al-a flood operation began. the quote which included a line that's quote the entire nation out there that is responsible and quote referring to the palestinians uh herzog did not like the fact that his own words condemn him and basically
10:14 am
are evidence that he of his genocidal intent um because of course they justified the killing of palestinian civilians and that quote was used against the zinast israeli entity in the icj wasn't it? south africa used what herzog described as a misconstrued quote at the hag to prove zionist israel's intent to commit genocide and thus invoke a jurisdiction of the court. in the same article, the wall street journal publishes a video of the zionist israeli ambassador to the un, gillad ardan, justifying his regime's genocide in gaza, so let's hear what he had to say in the video, well erdan news really has lot to say, let's see what he has to say, how can one call for sease fire and at the same time claim to seek solution to the conflict? after all, anyone who supports a cease fire basically supports hamas continued rain of terror in gaza. what was he talking about? so you see marwa, the zinus israeli ambassador to the on openly claimed that
10:15 am
anyone who asks for a cease fire in gaza, basically supports what erdon called hamas continued reign of terror in gaza. a video published to support an opinion peace by the israeli head of entity head of state, maintaining the accusations of genocide against the israeli regime are false. so he's basically saying that if anyone says, oh look, israel is bombing civilians, they should stop, actually supports uh what he said, violence and terrorism, i think that's like literally what uh the uh definition of playing victim is that we have always seen designist entity play when it comes to something that is not against its interests, doesn't it? exactly, and just invokes this ad hominim everything that is criticism against their genocide is hamas. i want to thank you very much, miss julia qassim for being with us to talk more about the uh what the mainstream media hasuh been telling us. for the past week, especially about uh rafah and about uh the uh horrors that the israeli
10:16 am
entity has been putting against the people in gaza. now ladies and gents, let's move to social media expose. now social media platforms have been the perfect place to expose the zinus israeli genocidal intentions towards palestinians and the western regime's false claims of securing human rights and freedom. expression, here's our own social media expert, miss simayim, who is also an editor at the cradle, sima, where has that train if you will, of uh western fo freedom of speech stopped this week? thanks for having me, mad, so the train has stopped at the tech transparency project station. tech transparency project is an information and research hub that seeks to hold big tech accountable. so anyway, they've published few days ago in february 14 investigation. what they claim to be investigation, they are bothered that uh x is allowing freedom of
10:17 am
speech for certain individuals and entities in west asia, so tech transparency project, who is by the way funded by openly zionist entities and individuals, including david magerman, open society foundations, which we all know, craig newmark, philanthropies, bohemian foundation and omidyad network found that elon musk's x, formally twitter appears to be selling premium services to individual. groups and countries that are deemed to be a threat to the us national security, oh the horror, right? so ttp, tech transparency project pointed out more than dozen x accounts belonging to us sanctioned entities that had a blue check mark. now the blue check mark requires the purchase of a premium subscription, along with the check marks which are which grant legitimacy, x promises a variety of perks for premium accounts like being able to post longer text and videos and greater visibility for certain posts. so some the accounts that ttp was irritated by uh
10:18 am
included lebanese hazballah officials and media, ansad allah affiliated media and iranian media. of course, including press tv, well i would, i would like to remind our viewers that press tv especially designated national subject to uh us imposed iran sanctions for 2018 executive order and secondary uh sanctions, because they rule the world don't they? according to what's known as the o-fax database, now the islamic republic of iran's broadcast also, the irib is also a especially designated national subject to us, people need to know this uh about uh what the us is doing, it's under a us sanction that says uh iran threat reduction and syria. human rights act of 2012 and secondary action, so the cia expects the x platform to abide by the cia's own illegal sanctions now? pretty much, and uh, lot of people have been triggered by this, not just ttp, this rage against the elon musk machine, which we've seen for several reasons in
10:19 am
recent months, so this brought about some posts on x, like that of this account, pete quile. uh at pq politics who attempted to kickstart some kind of campaign with hashtags that were never picked up to become visible let alone trending even um hashtag elon musk is national security threat and hashtag elon musk is a trader uh i'm surprised i didn't pick up right so he's a national security threat for allowing national security threats to have premium features on x i guess to express their thought yes another tweet by spyros ghost with an handle at anti-toxic people claimed that terrorists are paying for checkmarks on x, as a report shows that elon musk has accepted payments for subscriptions from entities barred from doing business in the united states, a potential violation of sanctions, the violation of sanctions, but it's not a violation of an entire human rights uh law and human rights principles to
10:20 am
bomb indiscriminatly people all over the world, but if you have those same people are being bombed having a voice, it becomes so much triggering, doesn't it? exactly, and it just it's you know a state media is only a problem when it it depends what state that is, according to them, so sima, it's always a pleasure to have you with us to comment on what's happening on social media, thank you very much for your time and your contribution to expose. now ladies and gents, stay with us, we will go now to figures, expose. now a new poll shows that zionis israel's warren gaza is taking a heavy mental toll on people across west asia and north africa. the qatar based arab center for research and policy studies announced the results of the survey of 8000 men and women from 16 arab countries carried out from december 12th, 2023 to
10:21 am
january 5th, 2024. now a staggering 97% of respondents say they felt psychological. trust during this war on gaza with 84% of them reporting experiencing this to a great degree. now almost four in five said they follow news about the brutal campaign every day or maybe several times a week. now majority of respondents said that arab governments should suspend ties of normalization of relations with the israelis as the top of second most important measure to stop the war. the survey al also found that 92% believe the palestinian cause is issue for all arabs and not just the palestinian people, up from 70% from 2022. the same paul also found that 69% of arabs stand with the people of gaza and the palestinian resistance hamas. now let us move to the most notable expose voices for this
