A lie can travel around the world and back again while the truth is lacing up its boots.

It works especially well if the media publishes the lie but not the truth afterwards.

Joe Biden “saw” 40 beheaded babies.

We know from footage Hamas/PIJ killed a significant number, including civilians. Back in late 2023 I was figuring maybe about 75/25 Hamas/IDF ratio. Soon after, we saw a lot of evidence of IDF tanks and helicopters firing on civilians, not to mention the dozens of exploded cars. But that is a LOT of explosives in those statistics. 50/50, 33/66?

Educated guess is every burnt body was killed by IDF and every shot body was killed by Hamas.
