Okay, I see what you're saying, but I don't like that tweet as a citation because;

a) he seems to be saying that hospital explosion was definitely an IDF attack when most credible sources have landed on it probably wasn't (and its a moot point anyway, because we have plenty of evidence the IDF will attack civilian infrastructure, its just that particular one probably wasn't them)

and

b) referring to Channel 4 news (who were an outlier on this) as "state media" to imply governmental control when they are generally both reliable and independent (exactly like the BBC) in a way that "non state media" like GB News or the Daily Mail fucking aren't

so the clip in that hour long "We all know Hasan is fucking awful, but you don't realise how bad unless you actually sit down and watch his horseshoe infowars" is... sorta misleading? as the veracity of that radio broadcast from the 2010 gaza flotilla attack is disputed (but I couldn't find a clear consensus on that, and, again, sort of moot because like so very much middle eastern stuff involving israel is a whole can of worms of bad actors, misinformation and propaganda, and plausible deniability of heinous actions sometimes justified more foten not by everyone involved).

And I'm still left wondering if his performative laugh is because he is scoffing at the audacity of perceived disinformation, or scoffing because he agrees with the sentiments and has cover to repeat it as a quotation

I don't
