Shielding U.S. Public from Zionist Reports of Friendly Fire on October 7

Reports that the IDF gave orders to disregard the lives of […] captives have caused great consternation [under Zionism] (Haaretz, 12/13/23). An author of the IDF ethics code called it “unlawful, unethical, horrifying” (Haaretz, 1/17/23). Yet any mention of the reports, or the debates they have inspired [under Zionism], seems to be virtually taboo in the mainstream U.S. media.

The only mention of “Hannibal directive” FAIR could find in a major U.S. newspaper the since October 7 came in a New York Post article (12/18/23) paraphrasing a released hostage who

claimed that Hamas told them the [Imperialist Occupation] Forces would employ the infamous “Hannibal Directive” on civilians, a revoked protocol that once allegedly called on troops to prioritize taking out terrorists even if it meant killing a kidnapped soldier.

(Emphasis original. To tell you the truth, I doubt that the resistance killed ‘many’ civilians, but this is still a worthwhile article.)
