The same Hamas that claims so many women and children killed also makes up stories about killing IDF soldiers

One aspect of the war that most Western reports don't mention is that Hamas keeps telling Palestinians that they are winning an imaginary war - and the Palestinians are thrilled to hear it.

Hamas claims that last Thursday, one of its fighters managed to stab an Israeli officer and three soldiers to death, and seized their weapons in Jabalia.

Then, on Saturday, a nearly identical operation was reported: again, a brave Hamas fighter stabbed three IDF soldiers to death in Jabalia, Afterwards, Hamas' Qassam Brigades claimed that "they threw a number of Zionist-made hand grenades at a gathering of soldiers next to an armored personnel carrier, killing and wounding them in the middle of the camp."

Some accounts elaborate that the stabber dressed himself up as a soldier and then blew himself up along with six "Zionists."

None of this happened.

Every fallen soldier is listed in various sites, and as of this writing there have been no deaths in Gaza since December 17 when two soldiers died in a building collapse.

But Hamas' claims are greeted ecstatically by clueless fans of theirs. These tales "inspire" Palestinian social media activists to wax poetic about these fighters, with no bullets left, who then launch themselves armed with only knives to kill Jewish soldiers.

Like Maha Abu Alhaj, who wrote on Facebook:

This authentic mujahid has established proof for all the weak in the nation of Muhammad. Did he empty his weapon into the soldiers of his enemy and not have a single bullet left, so he drew his knife? Did he see his comrades martyred and lose their weapons and he was left alone in that battle, so he decided to fight it with his pure hands? Did he see the angels of the Most Merciful supporting him as he pounced on 4 armed Zionists, killing them and seizing their weapons? Did he despair of victory for his nation after 440 days of fighting and siege, so he followed the path of Anas and Al-Baraa? Did he see the heroes of Jabalia surrendering? Did he see those people being defeated? No, by God, O soldiers of God, are the victorious ones.

If there is one thing Hamas has learned in this war, it is that it an lie with impunity. Palestinians will believe whatever they say, and the West will believe the things they want to believe and ignore the rest - never considering that they are all lies, not just some of them.

Everything Hamas says can be assumed to be false unless there is independent evidence that it is true. Everything the IDF says can be assumed to be true unless there is independent evidence contradicting it. The media treats each exactly the opposite of how they should be treated, and Jews are treated as presumptive liars while rapists and murderers are treated as legitimate.

And that is the subtle antisemitism that is pervasive, and obvious, every day.
