The Gaza genocide lie has been debunked by an unlikely source

Published April 2, 2026 9:03am ET



The ubiquitous and outrageous lie that Israel committed a “genocide” in Gaza has been further debunked, inadvertently, by Hamas itself. The Israelis have prosecuted an aggressive yet defensive war after their territory was breached by hordes of bloodthirsty terrorists on Oct. 7, 2023. The barbarian invaders slaughtered nearly 1,200 people during the atrocity, including dozens of Americans, and seized hundreds of hostages. They documented much of it on video, some of it streamed live. They wielded sexual violence as a weapon, which even an investigation by the anti-Israel United Nations has confirmed, to the chagrin of the ghoulish rape denialists.  

Hamas started the war with an orgy of violence against civilians, reportedly with an explicit blessing and assistance from the Iranian regime, with an eye toward derailing further peace agreements between the Jewish state and additional Muslim-majority nations in the region.
