Some guy called Dr Walid Amer, who describes himself as “a Palestinian refugee living in Gaza” with “a Ph.D. in linguistics and works “as a university Professor” has tweeted out the following:
Watch the brivary of the Palestinian children. Your army will never defeat us. "A Palestinian child said to a heavily armed Israeli soldier". #انقذوا_حي_الشيخ_جراح pic.twitter.com/foeGSpiEpO

“Brivary?” I assume that PhD in Linguistics does not involve the English language. Either that, or he got it from the back of a cereal box.
But more to the point: this video is clearly a scripted propaganda video. The IDF uniforms are not close to being authentic; no IDF soldier would ever retreat with a child pushing them or tell a young child to shut up; IDF soldiers are not sawing trees; and all these actors should be arrested on charges of overacting.
I don’t know what I am more offended by: the fact they tried to pull the wool over our eyes, or that they did not put more effort into trying to pull the wool over our eyes.
