But <strong>what we have experienced in the last few hours does deserve to be classified as \"informational terrorism\"<\/strong>, if only because many media outlets and many journalists <strong>have ended up behaving as loudspeakers for terrorists of Hamas<\/strong>, contributing to its disinformation strategy, which largely aims to inflame Muslim communities to generate outbreaks of violence in different countries.<\/p>\n<p><big>The case of the Gaza hospital that was hit by a Palestinian rocket<\/big><\/p>\n<p>What happened yesterday in Gaza, according to all the evidence, is that <strong>Palestinian terrorists tried to murder Israeli citizens by launching massive rockets<\/strong>, as they have been doing for years without many media paying attention to terror daily life of the inhabitants of Israel. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/2023\/10\/17\/an-islamic-jihad-rocket-hits-a-hospital-in-gaza-and-hamas-blames-israel\/\">One of those rockets hit a hospital in Gaza and the Hamas terrorists blamed Israel<\/a>, adding the lie to their long list of vile things in recent days: murders, torture, kidnappings and rapes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Many media outlets assumed Hamas' version without any verification<\/strong>, presenting in their headlines as fact what was, in reality, disinformation from a criminal gang. <strong>Some politicians spread this hoax in their strategy that anything goes to criminalize Israel:<\/strong> this is the case of the far-left Spanish ministers <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.ph\/KutaA\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Irene Montero<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.ph\/bpBe9\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Ione Belarra<\/a>, who at the time of writing these lines, hours after the truth about what happened, <strong>they have not yet withdrawn their false accusations nor have they apologized for launching them<\/strong>.
