Whoa, this was a heavy read.

Something came to my mind - I distinctly remember an IG post from a Jewish organisation (it was either Breaking the Silence or Jewish Voice for Peace I'm not sure and I'm not pointing fingers there!) a couple of months ago, Nov/Dec probably. It was all about how ZAKA is a credible volunteer organisation and a solid proof that there indeed was sexual violence during Hamas' incursion. There was of course not a word about the history of ZAKA, it was virtually portrayed as a highly noble volunteer initiative. So this IG account, while presenting themselves as pro-ceasefire and pro justice for the Palestinians, still held a Zionist organisation in high regard and parroted their "proof". I'll try to dig and find the post, if it's even there anymore.

It certainly makes you think in the light of many people criticising how certain "pro-Palestine" organisations and individuals are actually "soft Zionists" who actually stand for half solutions and defend Israel. I.e. wanting to stop apartheid and killings, but not supporting a one state solution and right to return. This is a very problematic normalisation of occupation.

I simply can not understand why there are still some who take anything the Israelis say as true, they have clearly lied on so many occasions with no evidence to corroborate their statements.

Excellent. Keep plugging away - the eyeballs are increasing.

To be fair though, post-October 7th, the “earliest” to report on Landau and Zaka was actually Brad Pearce here on Substack - whom Max Blumenthal himself rightly credits in the article you link to. Brad’s mammoth exposé was posted on October 18th ..and it’s still jaw-dropping:

Israel lies ~ nonstop, 24/7 on all topics.

It would be easier to asterisk all quotes from them, to denote proven serial liar.

The use of the word “may” cancels out any discussion that’s considered as “truth.”

If Hamas really were behaving so barbarically, why does Israel present so much fake evidence?

Why does the MSM uncritically lap these easily debunked fakes up?
