For context, I'm a Libertarian-minded Conservative who is NOT a Trump fan. Nor am I a fan of what's happened to the Republican Party. But this one sentence- "Kirk took the lead in spreading the LIE (empasis mine) that Israel allowed Hamas to attack..." shows Peter's bias; his knee-jerk assumption that any pushback against the mainstream narrative MUST be bullshit. How in the world would Mr. Savodnik know whether or not it's a lie? I certainly don't. Is he privy to the inner workings of Mossad? I too am beyond tired of the vast army of Trump sycophants, but stories are true if they're true, and false if they're false, and refusing to consider that a message might be true simply because the recipient has a distaste for the messenger is the opposite of being open minded.
Weird that stating this is considered antisemitic. Many Israelis also think that somebody sold them out. There are debates about who exactly and for what reason, but it's a widely held belief, true or not.
