Believing the Israel/Gaza war began on Oct 7 is as ignorant as believing the Russia/Ukraine conflict started in February, 2022.
Israel has been blockading and bombing Gaza continuously for 2 decades.
Israel bombed Gaza 2 weeks before Oct 7, and shot 5 Gazans on the same day.

Israel bombed Gaza for three days straight two weeks prior to October 7.

He's whitewashing Jones, they've worked together a lot. There's a podcast called Knowledge Fight that goes into detail on the Alex Jones Show and examines exactly how and why he's lying about things, they have a thousand multi-hour episodes and still can't cover everything he does because he puts out so much crap. They went back through the months following Sandy Hook episode by episode to look at how Alex's narrative changed over time.
Greenwald has popped up on the show a lot. I don't remember the specific interview you're talking about but I am sure I know exactly how it went. That whole documentary was bullshit, it just presents everything Alex says as fact and doesn't examine any of it. Every appearance Jones has made anywhere recently has been him spouting the same points to defend himself and nobody ever pushes back because he's not going to work with someone who actually wants the truth. It'll be just like when he was let back on Twitter and was in a live conversation with Musk, who just allowed him to lie to his face when previously he had refused to let him back on the platform over this stuff, because controversy and attention is how these people make money.
Greenwald may be right here because he seems to give a shit about this topic, and he may even have been a decent journalist once, but I can't trust anything he says or does ever again.
Yeah, I'm a policy wonk too. I didn't want to talk too broadly because I didn't pay too much attention to Greenwald in the Infowars universe, but I heard the Q&A episode with Greenwald just recently so I was confident to not mix up too much.
It's episode #709 2 Dan's 2 War.
Yeah the documentary is nuts, Alex Lee Moyer is a such a hack, just letting Alex Jones assert things over an over without any interest in finding out if the things he says are true OR even remotely resemble anything he said in the past, is just terrible craftsmanship.
But, the endgame documentary made by Jones himself is way funnier, like that a lot of his source documentation is just left blank or "insert quote" or fucking dead Encarta links, that so shitty and dubious you have to admire the braveness to just put something like that out there.
