Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion.

The Israeli army, "the most moral army in the world." - PL

This article seems to be fake? I looked at the places on goggle maps and these reviews do not exist. Specifically the hospital in Mays Al'Jabal and the gym in Ramyeh.

I don't doubt the Israeli soldiers are doing awful things there, but it seems odd to lie about something that is easily verifiable.

Google can and do remove offensive reviews.

Hate to break it to ya, but believing things that are easily, verifiably, false because you prefer the narrative is very "IN" right now.

We left confirmation bias in the rear view mirror and are now actively embracing reality speculation where anything can be true/false if more than one person/bot agrees with it.

That tank in gym photo is clearly AI generated. Not only is that not a merkava it also looks like there is no damage to any part of the gym done by the tank driving into it.

And it looks like it's fairly high up in a skyscraper.

Yeah I don't know why they even bothered including it.
