A spokesperson for the Israel Defense Forces told Insider that the military won't seek further evidence for its claim that Hamas decapitated babies in Israel.A lot of people are saying that Hamas decapitated 40 Jewish babies. Not true.He said it would be "disrespectful for the dead" to do so.
The spokesperson, Major Nir Dinar, was responding to widespread criticism that the IDF had spread a sickening claim about its enemies without demonstrating that it was true.
On Tuesday, Dinar told Insider that babies' bodies had been found at the Kfar Aza kibbutz, and that some had been decapitated.
I am not trying to defend Hamas. Hamas is terrible, and deserves retaliation. Just trying to be factual.
The Iraq War was partially justified by the bogus Nayirah testimony about baby killing.
Update: The PBS TV lackeys Brooks and Capehart said that this was Pres. Biden's best week for what he said:
WASHINGTON — President Biden said Wednesday he has seen “confirmed pictures of terrorists beheading children” in southern Israel following reports that up to 40 babies were butchered over the weekend near the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip — but the White House later walked back the commander-in-chief’s claim.No, Biden is senile, and was just lying. There are no pictures of terrorists beheading babies, and Biden was lying to say he saw them.“I never really thought that I would see and have confirmed pictures of terrorists beheading children. I never thought I’d ever — anyway,” Biden, 80, told leaders of Jewish groups at the White House on Wednesday.
But neither the president nor US officials have seen images or heard independently confirmed reports of beheaded children, a White House spokesperson later clarified, according to the Washington Post.
They then launched into an anti-Trump tirades, saying that Trump's response disqualified him to be President. Not sure why, as they did not disagree with anything Trump actually said.

Roger,
it doesn't really matter if a baby is killed by decapitation or a bullet. The key word today is 'killed'. Decapitation has a more visceral quality due to the dismemberment factor, but dead is dead. Hamas went out of their way to create as much horror as possible (mission accomplished), which speaks to me of a people driven far more by their insane hatred and desire to terrify than their strategy to actually win some actual concession (they have just brought a tremendous amount of death down upon the entire Palestinian community in Israel that will probably not be forgiven within our lifetimes).
I don't think you really want to split too many hairs over this one.
I agree with CFT, which just goes to show that anything is possible.
