The Israeli government on Tuesday deleted video they falsely claimed showed the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, not Israel, was responsible for the Gaza Baptist hospital massacre.
Israel caught lying AGAIN.
The original post featured featured a video CONFIRMED not to be of the hospital bombing.
The edited post removed the video.

Their initial post was edited to remove the video, though they left up the same vague cover story.
Damning sound analysis from X user Lord Bebo (who has beat the New York Times to major stories) suggests the strike was most likely carried out by Israel with an extremely powerful US-supplied JDAM missile (the US announced just days ago they were sending Israel more JDAMs).
BREAKING: The hospital was hit with a very high probability by a JDAM bomb.
– This means it was the Israeli airforce.
– This means it was a targeted attack.No words …

The IDF’s Hananya Naftali initially hailed the strike in a now-deleted tweet, claiming “Israeli Air Force struck a Hamas terrorist base inside a hospital in Gaza.”
“A multiple number of terrorists are dead,” Naftali said. “It’s heartbreaking that Hamas is launching rockets from hospitals, Mosques, schools, and using civilians as human shields. #Hamas_Is_ISIS.”
“Why did u delete your initial tweet?” X user Censored Men responded. “You’ve already confirmed that Netanyahu has put you on an official Israeli task force to control the narrative online, this means you get information from Israeli intelligence BEFORE the media does.”
“This means that your initial tweet most likely got checked by Israeli intelligence officials before you were allowed to post it. But then you deleted it,” Censored Men added. “Maybe they told you to retract the initial script of Hamas using the hospital as a human shield, and now it’s a misfired Hamas rocket that hit the hospital. Very suspicious.”
Israel released another video they claimed “documented the moment” an Islamic Jihad rocket which “misfired and hit a hospital in Gaza” but the timestamp allegedly did not line up.
Except the strike took place at 19:50, not 18:59 as it clearly reads in the video…
WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS LYING @Israel pic.twitter.com/rxI0rz482v

Meanwhile, after the strike took place U.S. Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism Ambassador Deborah Lipstadt and Israeli Special Envoy for Combating Antisemitism Michal Cotler-Wunsh rushed out a statement “condemning Hamas’ October 7 terrorist attacks and denouncing rising antisemitism around the world.”
How helpful!
