So I don’t agree with you at all, I think the history of politicized communications out of Israel has been consistent enough and about enough different topics that I think it’s fair to have an escalated standard for substantiation. There have been so many preposterous lies or bizarre shifts of emphasis (e.g. we never bomb hospitals!) that the same norms that testify to institutional credibility of reliable sources, in this case do the opposite.

But that said, it’s not nothing that there’s reporting to this effect, and I have to say I’m pretty disappointed in this community for only replying to you with low effort posts, dogpiling of downvotes, whataboutism and abuse of moderation powers.

To me that represents a breakdown of communication and/or the lack of existence of norms.
