From the “massacre” in Jenin to the Al Ahli hospital explosion and the “starving children” hoax, time and again anti-Israel accusations collapse under scrutiny — yet the media and antisemites remain hooked on propaganda.
Accusations against Israel have become the world’s most destructive addiction. For decades, mainstream media outlets, the UN, left-wing politicians, and antisemites alike have eagerly consumed and amplified claims of Israeli crimes — only to be proven spectacularly wrong. Yet like junkies chasing their next fix, they return for more.
The latest collapsed narrative came courtesy of Anthony Aguila, a former Gaza Humanitarian Foundation contractor, who claimed in May that the IDF shot dead an 8-year-old boy collecting food. The story spread across social media, echoed in Congress, and appeared on MSNBC, BBC, and Tucker Carlson’s show.
But it was all a lie.
Thanks to the Daily Wire’s Kassy Akiva and a GHF rescue mission, the boy — Abdul Rahim Muhammad Hamden — was found alive and safe with his mother.
This is only the newest entry in a long chain of fabricated charges:
- In 2000, media falsely portrayed Tuvia Grossman, an American Jew rescued from Arab attackers, as an Arab beaten by Israeli police.
- In 2002, the world swallowed reports of a “Jenin massacre” that never happened.
- In 2023, Hamas’s claim that hundreds were killed in an Israeli airstrike on the Al Ahli hospital collapsed when it was revealed the blast was caused by a misfired Islamic Jihad rocket.
- In 2025, at least 12 “famine photos” of supposedly starving Gazan children were debunked — the children had preexisting conditions, while their families appeared well-fed in the same images.
Each time, the truth emerges. Each time, the media shrugs and races after the next lie.
Israel’s enemies understand this addiction. They fabricate atrocity after atrocity, knowing it will be splashed across front pages before the facts catch up. And when the truth comes out? There is no self-reflection, no correction of bias — only a hunger for the next anti-Zionist hit.
But the record stands:
- No massacre in Jenin.
- No Israeli strike at Al Ahli.
- No starving-children famine photos.
- No murdered child at the GHF site.
The cycle of propaganda continues — but so does the truth.
