Oh it isn’t - be it the bullet or the bombs raining down on Gaza I absolutely condemn.

However if you are asking me if the IDF, currently slaughtering children in Gaza, depriving a civilian population in the millions of water, energy and food, could have manufactured it to evoke an emotional response in the rest of the world then (on the basis of the CNN article at the time) I’d not have ruled it out.

Having spent days reading heroic stories of a fighter pilot who didn’t exist shooting down planes that never flew over Kyiv forgive me for keeping my cynical eye over wartime propaganda.
