Before we get to the main topic, I found this tweet rather striking:
The Vigilant Fox @VigilantFox
NEW: Donald Trump says he thinks he knows who controls Biden.
This is how he describes them:
“You’re fighting off very evil forces, and they’re very smart forces. There are people [who] control Biden. Totally true. I think I know who they are largely, but there are people that control. They’re very smart, very energetic. Possibly, they’re real believers [in] their sick ideology.”

What’s he talking about? Who is he talking about? Why doesn’t he tell us? What are the issues in their sick ideology that Trump disagrees with? The Border? Ukraine? Palestine? How do they control Biden—with campaign funding? Does he know who these people are because they’re the same people funding him? I’m just asking. These are disturbing times. I’m not making a final judgment here, and of course I agree that the lawfair directed at Trump is a disgrace to the legal traditions we thought undergirded our constitutional order. Nevertheless, some of Trump’s recent statements on geopolitical matters have been very disturbing and raise questions about the nature of our political order.
This next item is a big story and you may want to share it with your friends, many of whom may sincerely have swallowed the propaganda that the MSM has fed them. What I’ve done here is to paste in the text from a thread unroll. You’ll be able to do a quick read through to get the gist of the full thread. But you’ll also quickly see the breaks in the text. That’s where the thread unroll provides screen shots from The Times’ article as well as from other sources. Follow the link for the full unroll. I’ve included one sample screen shot, near the beginning:
BREAKING: New detailed report from the Times of London admits there is no evidence for the "mass rape" hoax fabricated and spread by the NYT, BBC, Guardian, AP and Reuters, and notes that Patten's own UN report confirms this and reiterates her call for an actual UN investigation
some important facts to highlight from this new report. The main claim of rape on October 7 which the NYT heavily relied on is from a deranged fantasy "testimony" by "Sapir", including cut off breasts and severed heads. The Times now confirms from Israeli police that she lied:
this piece by The Times is the first one I have seen in prestige Western media that accurately states both the highly limited nature, scope and content of Pramila Patten's UN report, which every other outlet keeps lying about, falsely saying it "confirms Hamas mass rape", and "found evidence of sexual violence/rape" by the evidentiary standard of an actual full legal investigation, both of which Patten herself confirms again are lies and falsehoods but the NYT, BBC, Reuters and AP keep repeating to launder their own "mass rape" hoax (see and ).
The AP just did this again recently in its report exposing the two Zaka hoaxers by constantly, over and over again, repeating these blatant lies about Patten's UN report "confirming Hamas mass rape" and "sexual violence/rape on October 7."
But now the Times confirms that Patten's report was not full, legal or investigative in nature, that she explicitly does not attribute any sexual violence/rape to Hamas, and that any case of sexual violence she says might have happened on October 7 is based on a low evidentiary threshold that does not meet the standard of an actual full legal investigation, and relies entirely on Israeli information and "eyewitnesses" like the aforementioned Sapir.
That is why she keeps calling for an actual investigation, which as the Times notes the Israeli regime keeps blocking.
I have been saying all this for months now (see ), and finally it has penetrated a mainstream prestige Western media outlet, confirming that all the others in the Western media and political class including the NYT, BBC and Guardian are blatant propagandist liars.
another important fact to highlight from the Times report is Israeli feminists admitting the Israeli regime has and continues to cynically weaponize the fabricated mass rape hoax to launder the ongoing Gaza genocide, and slogans like "Believe Israeli Women" are pure propaganda:
this is also the first time any prestige Western media outlet has admitted the blatantly racist nature of the mass rape hoax, although it only touches it lightly and does not go into the long history of its usage by settler-colonial powers against those they occupy and genocide:
another fact destroying the "mass rape" hoax as fabricated and laundered by the BBC in particular, in an article that remains the first result when you search for "Hamas rape". The Times now reports the person the BBC cites as a credible source, Cochav Elkayam-Levy, is a hoaxer:
again, all of this was already exposed by outlets like Mondoweiss, Electronic Intifada, Grayzone and people like myself, as we are smeared by Zionist propagandists who fabricated and spread the "mass rape" hoax. Now prestige media is starting to admit it
this is the typical cycle of genocidal atrocity propaganda by the Western media class. It's part of the propaganda system. They fabricate hoax lies, use it to justify and launder mass murder, beheadings and actual rape, then go "ok it was all bullshit":
there are countless examples of this, including with the "mass rape" atrocity propaganda hoax. The same Western media and political class scum who fabricated and spread it to launder the ongoing Gaza genocide als utilized it to destroy Libya:
The Times also confirms after themselves hiring an Israeli company to do their own investigation that there is no physical, video or photo evidence for rape on October 7. Both the German Foreign Minister and Chancellor have repeated this lie in recent days
who else made the blatantly false claim, now also debunked by The Times alongside Haaretz and the UN, that video footage of rape exists, in an article that remains published on the @guardian site to this day with no corrections? Bethan McKernan:
in line with the UN and every human rights org The Times also rejects the forced tortured "confessions" the Israeli regime put out, which Sheryl Sandberg, the Guardian's Bethan McKernan and others keep citing as "evidence" for the "mass rape" hoax:
this is also very important: The Times investigation does not mention two other crucially important facts that we know from a recent Haaretz investigation, namely that there is zero physical evidence of sexual violence/rape on any of the October 7 bodies that were brought to the Shura base for investigation by forensic pathologists, and also those found at the Nova festival.
Now this already completely destroyed the New York Times, BBC, CNN, Reuters and AP articles on the "mass rape" hoax as they all cited specifically targeted systematic sexual violence and rape on bodies which they claim they verified in photos and from witnesses at the Shura base (see and ).
They lied. They outright lied, and the AP in its recent piece debunking the two Zaka hoaxers also repeated this lie (see ).
This is why The Times piece is important, because the Haaretz piece despite including the aforementioned two important facts still desperately tries to defend the hoax by relying on falsehoods that the Times piece exposes and debunks, namely by citing the forced tortured "confessions" as evidence, by blatantly lying about the Patten report "confirming Hamas mass rape" and being a "full legal investigation" which again The Times just disproved, and also lying about both the number of "witnesses" and their credibility, including of the now exposed and debunked by The Times "Sapir".
Now all of this is of course intentional. In every piece admitting that a core element of the "mass rape" hoax was fake, they have to still cling on to another part of it. So it is up to people like me to read them all carefully and piece it together and show how despite their desperate attempts to salvage parts of the hoax, it's over. There is no thing to salvage. There is no evidence for any of it.
This is why knowledgeable people like Larry Johnson have done the research to show that the October 7th raid into Israel by Hamas was a military operation designed to take prisoners who could be exchanged for the many thousands of Palestinians being held in Israeli prisons, many without charges—much less trials. It fits in well with The Times’ expose. October 7th was not a “terror attack”—although it was undoubtedly terrifying for many Israelis. Many of the targets were in fact IDF personnel or other security personnel—including the women prisoners, whom Israel is fond of parading around in tight fitting uniforms for PR purposes. Larry has done some ground breaking research, and you can find the results in these two recent articles:
THE HARD FACTS ABOUT PALESTINIAN TERRORISM DEBUNK WESTERN NARRATIVE
UPDATE ON ISRAELI STATISTICS RE PALESTINIAN ATTACKS ON ISRAELIS AND FOREIGNERS
An extended quote from the first linked article:
While Israel and the West repeatedly and incessantly insist that Hamas is nothing more than one of the most deadly, formidable terrorist groups in the world, the data collected and published by the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs debunks that narrative. The claim against Hamas is false. You don’t have to take my word for it, I am going to show you the data. …
…
… I am not suggesting that Hamas is a pacifist organization — it is not — but neither is it a political entity engaged in unrelenting violence.
Labeling Hamas as a strictly terrorist organization is, in my view, a cop-out from addressing the fundamental political issues that undergird the war between the Zionists and the Palestinian people. This is not just a battle of Muslim versus Jew, although many in the West certainly try to portray it as such. The truth of the matter is that Hamas is now the most popular entity among the Palestinian people, and Israel played a direct role in elevating them to that position, albeit unwittingly.
We also cannot ignore the fact that shortly after Hamas formally organized in 1987, the Government of Israel embarked on a covert action to funnel money to Hamas in order to create an alternative to Fatah and the Palestinian Authority. This was done in order to sabotage any prospect for a legitimate two-state solution.
Israeli insistence that Hamas is some awful terrorist group is simply not backed up by the facts. Zionist diatribes about Hamas being nothing but murderous thugs are belied by the grossly disproportionate number of Palestinians that have been slaughtered, not only by the Israeli Defense Force, but by armed settlers. The reality is being driven home with each passing day as Israel continues to bomb and strafe Palestinians in their homes and in temporary shelters. The sheer lopsided body count tells the true story and it is one the ICJ has declared is genocide.
It is not just Palestinian Muslims, but many Palestinian Christians who are targets of the blood thirsty Israeli Army and their settler zealots. For those who follow these events closely and search for real news have known this operation on October 7 has been misrepresented to Western audiences by intense Zionist propaganda and the lies have been disseminated the very MSM outlets which are Jewish owned and operated, especially in the U.S. and U.K. Have the American people caught on to this con yet? We shall see. Keep doing the great work you do, Mark, it is invaluable to us and the people of the world.
He makes as good an argument for Trump as anyone. Sacks avoids mention of Palestine, but in his interviews he's been forthright in opposing genocide.
