On Twitter a Jewish man succinctly explained to me why the press steadfastly refuses to give us details on actual atrocities committed by the same people Israel is fighting: “No Jews, no news.” It’s the only thing that explains why this story, for example, isn’t being covered to the degree that it deserves.

“A Report into the Credibility of Certain Evidence with Regard to Torture and Execution of Persons Incarcerated by the Current Syrian Regime.”

The report has some extremely graphic photos of corpses that show signs of torture. These were people who simply wanted to be free from under the boots of a dictator. It sickens me when I read westerners applauding Bashar al-Assad because he’s “fighting terrorism.” He’s a terrorist himself. Syria is a state sponsor of terrorism. He’s also an idiot. In exchange for fighting the other rebel groups, Assad let the Islamic State do pretty much what it wanted in Syria. As a result, fifty of his men were captured and beheaded. Their heads were jammed onto the steel spikes of a fence.

It’s the sort of scene we haven’t witnessed in centuries. There’s video of it everywhere.

But no Jews, no news.

The mainstream media is feeding us garbage. All journalists who work in Gaza are under death threats from Hamas to not report the truth.

Yesterday one of the stories thrust into the mainstream media was nearly simultaneous explosions in a Palestinian neighborhood and at al-Shifa hospital.

The media immediately took the Hamas line that it was Israeli missiles. Later, the IDF stated that it had not fired on those locations, and that the explosions were misfired Hamas or Islamic Jihad missiles.

The media played it as he said, he said.

But an Italian journalist has just left Gaza and is telling the truth about what happened now that he needs not fear Hamas retaliation — Israel was right.

Something called BagNews made a pitiful attempt yesterday to debunk a post I wrote titled “More Palestinian Fakery.” The debunking of my post included statements from western journalists in Gaza who all have Hamas guns to their heads. What were the odds that they were going to say that the Crying Man was not actually covered with his father’s blood, because there was no father?

I don’t put any credence in the denials of western journalists who have armed Hamas minders breathing down their necks.

An aside.

Our language and the meanings of words are becoming so mangled that people have trouble both expressing themselves and understanding concepts. When I post my interpretation of photos, I’m not a “source.” The former Syrian military policeman codenamed Caesar is a source. He’s providing documents and making allegations. Yesterday Ali Gharib tried to tell me that being a blogger, I’m a journalist, so I’m not supposed to report things unless I can verify them…somehow.

Well, he also denies the existence of Pallywood. In his piece on me, he called me a source and basically said I’m crazy. This is where the debasement of the language comes in. Mr. Gharib said that because I’m crazy, nobody should take my interpretations of photos seriously. The problem is that everybody has their own brain. They can look at the photos and make up their own minds.

I’ve been horrified that so many people wait for instructions on how they should think. They’re all admitting it to me in e-mails. After they were told that BagNews debunked my post, they started sending me these.

I was arguing with some Irish guy named Voodoo Criminology, but it turns out he’s just an idiot with no factual knowledge.

He’s never heard of the Gilad Shalit, the IDF soldier kidnapped by Hamas on June 25 2006. They used tunnels to get into Israel and were supported from Gaza by mortar and antitank missile fire. In the year 2000, the Israeli Defense Ministry put out the word that it needed a technical solution to stopping Hamas infiltration into Israel by tunnel. From 1994 to 2007, Hamas and other Palestinian terrorist groups carried out 156 suicide attacks in Israel, killing 702 people.

Voodoo Criminology also likes to mock people for having chronic illness.

Typical Hamas supporter. Hamas is sadistic, so of course their supporters are sadistic.

Yesterday I determined through photographic evidence that there was no dead father in the Crying Man incident at the hospital in Khan Younis. Today I discovered the reason why Hamas is faking so many civilian casualties.

Here’s an example of a report written by a journalist with a Hamas gun to her head.

GAZA, Palestinian Territories - Israeli strikes hit a crowded shopping area in Gaza City, hours after tank shells tore through the walls of a U.N. school crowded with war refugees Wednesday in the deadliest of a series of air and artillery attacks that push the Palestinian death toll above 1,300 in more than three weeks of fighting.

The casualty figures are provided by Hamas, which announced before the war that all dead terrorists would be called innocent civilians. Though the press has simply parroted Hamas’s talking points, let’s for the moment accept that 1300 Palestinians have been killed.

According to the Israeli Defense Forces, so far over 1000 Hamas terrorists have been killed. I’ve studied war for forty years. This figure is probably a little low, given Israeli capabilities and Hamas’s limitations.

This is the reason why Hamas is presenting the world with phony civilian casualties and putting out fake sniper videos.

I struggled with this, and I’ve decided to go ahead and post it. A WARNING: THIS VIDEO SHOWS THE MORTAL WOUNDING OF CAPTAIN DMITRI LEVITAS. Do not watch unless you are willing to see the effects of a real sniper bullet on the human body. Captain Levitas lost his left arm in the attack; this injury was caught on film. He died soon afterward.

I post this video to show all you credulous pinheads out there that if Salem Salem Salem Salem had actually been shot three times by an Israeli sniper with a Lapua rifle, there would’ve been nothing left of him. He had no wounds on his body. It was all pretend.

Also, much of the destruction you’re seeing on the news is the result of Hamas improvised explosive devices, not Israeli bombing.

And the UN is letting its clinics and schools be used as fighting positions. How very humanitarian of them. I’m sure the ill and the children appreciate it.

So this is what’s happening: The crazy non-journalist sitting in his home is giving you the real story, and the professional journalists on the scene are being threatened into lying. That’s why all these days later, we still don’t know the name of the Crying Man.

It took me five seconds to learn the name of Armored Corps Captain Dmitri Levitas, age twenty-six, a native of Uzbekistan, yet not one of those four international news organizations that BagNews said I insulted has told us the name of the Crying Man. That shows you how believable their “reporting” is. They won’t tell you the truth because they’re afraid and because they can’t defy the suffocating peer pressure.

I have no peers. Hence I’m under no pressure. You so-called journalists should try living in total freedom from the disapproval of your colleagues.

In memory of Captain Levitas, a brave man who gave his life for a great cause.

His was a genuine death, not a Pallywood circus act put on by evil clowns, dutifully reported by unethical incompetents held at gunpoint, and believed by idiots with no ability to engage in critical thinking.
