Gaza: Truths Behind All the Lies

“Ceasefire.” The so-called international community is demanding Israel agree to a “ceasefire.” But there was already a ceasefire prior to October 7. Hamas broke it by massacring 1,200 Jews and taking over 250 hostages.

Hamas violated that peace because it thought it could gain leverage over Israel by murdering Jews.

Hamas now demands another ceasefire because it thinks it is no longer able to murder more unarmed Jews. Instead, it now fears that Israel will destroy Hamas in the way Hamas sought but failed to destroy Israel.

Did Hamas call for a cease-fire after the first 500 Jews it massacred on October 7?

Think of this as a handy dictionary by which to decode mainstream-media reports and commentary on the war Hamas started. As VDH implies, those are thoroughly infected with Hamas propaganda and claims, especially when it comes to "civilian casualties" and "collateral damage," two more terms VDH unpacks. Bookmark it, and as a fun side effort, keep track of how the Biden administration uses these terms. Do they define it in the reality of Hamas' grotesque terrorism, or by their propaganda terms to enable it?
