The Israeli government on Monday screened for 200 members of the foreign press some 43 minutes of harrowing scenes of murder, torture and decapitation from Hamas’s October 7 onslaught on southern Israel, in which over 1,400 people were killed, including raw videos from the terrorists’ bodycams.

The footage was collected from call recordings, security cameras, Hamas terrorists’ body cameras, victim dashboard cameras, Hamas and victims’ social media accounts, and cellphone videos taken by terrorists, victims and first responders. Over 1,000 civilians were slaughtered by the terrorists, and at least 224 people were abducted.

In semi-related news, the IDF claim to be holding over 1000 bodies of Hamas terrorists who entered Israeli territory on October 7th.

        Yeah there is no conspiracy here only arrogance and party politics involving West Jordan.

        I’m saying I find it hard to believe that Hamas is equipping fighters with body cams to document atrocities, and I’m saying that the presentation of these videos works way too well to justify the IDF’s campaign for me to just accept it without independent corroboration. If this was being reported by Haaretz and Al Jazeera, I’d be less inclined to doubt it because neither of those outlets seem particularly inclined to unquestioningly support the Israeli government’s narrative.

        I mean, when American cops present body cam footage, the first thing people look for is the edits. This footage was shown without providing journalists a way to study it further.
