24 hours later, media still doesn't report obvious Sinwar lies

It has now been some 36 hours since Gaza Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar issued a statement aboutthe war in Gaza - his first such statement since the war began.

As mentioned previously, his statement was filled with obvious lies combined with bravado - claiming that Hamas s attacked about 5,000 Israeli soldiers, “a third of them died, a third were seriously injured and the last third was permanently disable." he also claimed Hamas destroyed 750 armored IDF vehicles.

How has the mainstream media covered these statements?

For the most part, they remain ignored. The live coverage sites of the New York Times, AP, CNN and NBC News did not think that a statement from Hamas' leader and mastermind of the October 7 attacks was worth mentioning.

The media that did cover it generally buried his lies. 

The Telegraph wrote "He falsely claimed that his terrorist forces had killed more than a thousand Israeli soldiers. According to Israel, 156 soldiers have died in the ground operation in Gaza."

Other second-tier media simply quoted other sources, like WION quoting the Times of Israel's report. The Hindustan Times reported Sinwar's claims alongside Israel's count of soldiers who fell, without opining on which is more accurate. 

The theme seems to be that the Gaza Hamas government is trustworthy when making up casualty figures, but when they say things that are provable lies, then it is just Arabs being Arabs and it is not worth taking seriously or even calling attention to them. 

There are two main themes for Hamas: Jew-hatred and deception. October 7 showed that they are experts at both. And they know that the media is reluctant to emphasize either one of those themes.

Which is why they are so effective.
