The past few months have been busy as always at EoZ Central.
There were two major themes covered almost exhaustively.
One was Amnesty International, which announced a tool based on lies to prove that Israel was guilty of war crimes in 2014. Nearly every one of Amnesty's tweets about events that happened a year before, claiming that Israel was targeting civilians, was countered by me showing that Israel had a legitimate target for each specified attack.
Even though I provided actual "martyr posters" for many of the people amnesty called "civilian," they have not corrected a single data point, proving beyond any doubt that Amnesty International values anti-Israel lies over the truth.
The second major theme was UNWRA, as a story I came up with last year - showing UNRWA teachers posting antisemitic and pro-terror entries on Facebook - got some serious media coverage, culminating, so far, with the US State Department issuing a wishy-washy memo about it.
Of course, EoZ covered many other stories, such as the Iran nuclear deal, the Temple Mount violence, media bias and many examples of unreported Arab antisemitism. I made posters and cartoons.
If you are going to misuse the term "tikkun olam," you might as well misuse it for a valuable cause!
