Battle damage: Gaza versus Syria

It appears that the ground phase of Operation Protective Edge is over. Now that the Israelis are aware of the Hamas tunnel threat, they can prepare for future attacks. Hamas—always inconceivably stupid and depraved—has murdered the tunnel diggers to silence them. Good luck recruiting new diggers to replace the tunnels that the IDF destroyed. To…

Now I know what it feels like

To be Israeli. No, of course I don’t know what it feels like to be Israeli. Nobody’s shooting rockets at me or trying to kidnap me or murder me. But I know what it feels like to be on the receiving end of “arguments” that are utterly demented, dishonest, and distorted. Since I wrote my…

In Hamas, you die twice

To be a member of Hamas, you have to be able to use children as human shields, break all agreements you make, fire rockets at civilians, dig like a mole rat, and—most importantly—you must be able to die twice. Hamas loves death so much that its list of terrorists and alleged civilians who were killed…

Islamic State propaganda worse than Pallywood

You can judge the quality of a fighting force by the psyops (psychological operations) that it undertakes. Well, Islamic State propaganda is worse than Pallywood. I’ve been saying for a long time the Terrorists Formerly Known as ISIL or ISIS are not as much of a threat as people make them out to be. Now…

I was just kidding, but now…

Earlier today I wrote a post about the horrendously dishonest and inept Reuters piece “Ten-year-old Palestinian boy the first casualty of renewed fighting in Gaza.” At the end, I wrote that Salem Salem Salem Salem—the “victim” in the fake Gaza sniper video—was in the funeral procession for Ibrahim Dawawsa. I was just kidding, but a…

Reuters accidentally exposes Hamas Pallywood

Reuters has released possibly the worst piece of “journalism” in the history of the human race. First I’ll tell you what’s wrong with it, and then I’ll explain how Reuters accidentally exposed Hamas Pallywood in way that leaves no doubt whatsoever that the reporting from Gaza is being stage managed. You can watch the video…

The lie of Hamas being a “ragtag militia”

Recently a cretinous commenter on YouTube took issue with me over my defense of Operation Protective Edge. He must’ve referred to Hamas as a “ragtag militia” forty times. In the radio talk-show business, these sloganeers are known as “seminar callers,” because they’ve been taught what to say. The phrase “ragtag militia” was obviously sent out…

The uninformed rule the world

Almost everything has an upside and a downside. My posts on Pallywood have made literally thousands of Israelis feel better. I know because I’ve gotten thousands of messages. But by immersing myself in the media coverage of the story, I confirmed my worst fear: The uninformed rule the world. Uninformed people vote for uninformed politicians…

The bombing of the al-Ghoul house in Rafah

On August 3, 2014, the Israeli Defense Forces bombed the al-Ghoul house in Rafah, Gaza. We’re told that ten people were killed. In response to this bombing, journalist Asmaa al-Ghoul has written “Never Ask Me About Peace Again,” a deeply dishonest attempt to mislead the world into thinking that Israel simply murdered a harmless family…

Why I write posts on Pallywood

Since so many people have asked, tonight I’ll explain why I write posts on Pallywood. I have a very specific motivation. And, because of my burgeoning reputation as a madman, I’ll explain why I believe that maybe—just maybe—this was my purpose in life. First of all, I’m not religious. I’m a theist, which means I…
