Israel has been relentlessly casting Al-Shifa as a HAMAS command center for months before the ground war even began. A look back at five months of failed Al-Shifa propaganda.
At dawn, 4:30am on 29 February 2024, a convoy of food aid trucks arrived southwest of Gaza City where people had congregated at the Nabulsi Roundabout on Harun Al-Rashid Street. They were instantly surrounded by desperate Palestinians, who began unloading aid from the trucks.

This latest journalism catastrophe by the Jerusalem Post is comparable to that time it reported on 1 December 2023, with a straight face, that a dead Gazan baby was in fact a ‘rubber doll’ and that video of the devastated relatives holding her corpse was a “Pallywood” production, Israel’s favorite phrase to delegitimize vile things it actually did by claiming visual evidence is just a Palestinian studio video production.
The Guardian’s Chris McGreal published a long article on 4 February 2024 looking behind the management curtain in CNN, shedding light on the network’s pro-Israel bias that has left American viewers woefully uninformed and intentionally misled about Israel’s war on Gaza.
Palestinian writer Mohammed El-Kurd misspoke at a recent 13 January 2024 London rally for Palestine, forgetting the word “not” in the last line of an otherwise abundantly crystal clear speech.
