It’s quite something that a month later, misinformation is still the driving narrative here.

Can you elaborate? I haven’t seen any “more reputable” sources addressing this but I may have missed them…
The misinformation being that the destruction was all caused by Hamas and the victims were all Jewish citizens at the hands of Hamas.
While there is coverage of the Israeli response in Gaza, there’s still not much coverage that a lot of the death and destruction during the original attack was actually by IDF soldiers with no defined targets responding to an invisible threat.
This doesn’t mean that Hamas wasn’t killing people too, but their main goal seemed to be to break out and take hostages, not break out and kill anyone they saw.
This article is dated October 30th. Is it still news at this point?
It's now Olds.
Wasn't posted before and it's not like a week old is THAT old, so I'm letting it stand.
I guess it's just been one of those weeks.
Given that this is critical context for what's happening, I'd say yeah.
