1/8 These headlines tell you everything the media doesn’t want you to notice.
AP and the BBC aren’t just reporting what happened; they’re quietly framing how you’re supposed to understand it.

2/8 AP says Israel claims, “often with little evidence,” that UNRWA staff are tied to Hamas.
That line does a lot of work by quietly telling readers not to believe what comes next.
Except the evidence exists. And it always has. **
3/8 The BBC doesn’t just report here, but adjudicate sovereignty.
By declaring “occupied East Jerusalem” as fact in the headline, the BBC isn’t describing a dispute.
It’s unilaterally drawing the borders of another country’s capital. **

4/8 UNRWA is not a normal refugee agency. It is the only UN body that exists solely for Palestinians, while every other refugee population on earth is handled by a single agency.
And it is the only one that: 🚩Passes refugee status down generations 🚩Defines “refugee” as permanent 🚩Has no mandate to resolve displacement
That isn’t humanitarianism. It’s institutionalised dependency. **
5/8 Media reports say Israel merely “claims” UNRWA is infiltrated.
But this isn’t abstract. It isn’t theoretical. It’s documented.
**
6/8 This is audio from October 7.
The speaker: an UNRWA employee. He describes infiltrating Israel and holding Israeli captives.
This is what the media calls “little evidence.” ⬇ **
7/8 UNRWA benefits from what we call the humanitarian halo effect.
Journalists suspend skepticism. Evidence is minimized. Terror infiltration becomes allegations.
Take this claim, reported uncritically: that UNRWA leased the land from Jordan since 1952, even though Jordan claims no sovereignty there, and all water and electricity in Jerusalem are provided by Israeli authorities.
Absurd on its face. Reported anyway. x.com/UNRWA/status/2… **
8/8 This story isn’t "Israel demolishes UN compound."
It’s media institutions protecting a failed UN agency, even after terror infiltration and involvement in October 7 massacre.
Notice what’s framed. Notice what’s omitted. **
