The recent discovery of three hostages' bodies in Gaza by the IDF has sparked a contentious narrative. Hamas claims that the victims were killed by an IDF missile strike, yet autopsy findings refute this assertion, revealing the use of poison gas instead. The alarming possibility of Hamas resorting to methods reminiscent of the Holocaust demands prominent attention. However, media coverage has directed public focus elsewhere, toward emotional statements from one of the grieving mothers, who initially held the Israeli government culpable for her son's abduction and now accuses the IDF of poisoning him. The Grayzone has even gone as far as amplifying this narrative through a section on their website labeled "The Hannibal Directive," where they feature articles insinuating that the IDF deliberately targets Israel's own citizens. This narrative spin sidelines the urgent need to address atrocities carried out by Hamas and their implications.
