In my senior year of college in Portland, Oregon, a group of friends and I went to an all-you-can-eat brunch buffet at a Chinese restaurant every Sunday morning. It was there that a guy named Mike christened me a “convictionless amoeba” for not have an agenda. I laughed for hours. That was exceptional use of…
Yemen: Tyler Hicks up to his old tricks
September 12, 2015
In Gaza, New York Times photographer Tyler Hicks was deeply involved in the Hamas military deception operation that claimed the lives of Ismail Bakr, Mohammed Bakr, Ahed Bakr, and Zakaria Bakr. Now Hicks and writer Kareem Fahim have teamed up for the New York Times’ misleading and utterly nonfactual piece “Airstrikes Take Toll on Civilians…
Hooray for Houthiwood!
September 6, 2015
The Palestinians became experts at producing fake videos that portray the Israeli Defense Forces as murderous thugs who drop bombs and fire artillery indiscriminately. It’s a lie, of course: Five times as many Palestinian males as females were reported killed, and there weren’t enough casualties to indicate a blatant disregard for civilian life. In the…
Israel drops atomic bombs on Gaza!
April 4, 2015
Somebody asked me to look at a photo said to show Israeli air strikes on Gaza. The image is fake. Only atomic bombs could produce such explosions. Here’s the photo. This is a composite. You can always tell Palestinian fake-explosion photos because the fireballs and smoke towers appear precisely on the horizon. What they’re doing…
Yes, the press uses fake video
October 29, 2014
Two days ago I wrote a post explaining why I don’t contact the media about my Pallywood and Gaza beach analyses. In response people wrote to me that I’d crossed the line in accusing the press of using fake video. My reputation would suffer! I was giving ammunition to those who want to discredit me!…
What are inert bombs?
August 25, 2014
I’ve gotten several e-mails asking me, “What are inert bombs? You talk about them a lot, but what are they?” Inert bombs are aerial munitions filled with wet sand or cement. They’re also called “dumb bombs.” Though they were originally designed for training, air forces began using them during wartime in order to reduce collateral…
Bombing Hamas command posts is not like 9/11
August 23, 2014
Today the Israeli Air Force bombed a twelve-story apartment building in the Tal al-Hawa neighborhood of Gaza City. The building—named “Zafir 4″—collapsed. In a completely obscene attempt at historical revisionism, Palestinians are calling this “Gaza’s 9/11.” In reality the IDF is bombing Hamas command posts; this was one such installation. The Palestinians say that seventeen…
Faked photos of Gaza International Airport
August 22, 2014
When I first saw this image of what was said to be the Israeli bombing of Yasser Arafat International Airport on July 7, 2014, I thought it looked very strange. Several other pictures by the same photgrapher were published, and they all had a whiff of fraudulence about them. A little research proved that these…
The lie of Hamas being a “ragtag militia”
August 7, 2014
Recently a cretinous commenter on YouTube took issue with me over my defense of Operation Protective Edge. He must’ve referred to Hamas as a “ragtag militia” forty times. In the radio talk-show business, these sloganeers are known as “seminar callers,” because they’ve been taught what to say. The phrase “ragtag militia” was obviously sent out…
No, I don’t contact the media
October 27, 2014
Not a day goes by without someone asking me if I contact the media about my Pallywood posts or the posts on Operation Four Little Martyrs, my name for the Hamas deception on the beach in Gaza, July 16, 2014. There are lots of reasons why I don’t reach out to the press. However, that…
