The Israeli Defense Forces on Sunday accused a prominent journalist– who in recent months has reported regularly for Al Jazeera from Gaza – of moonlighting as a senior Hamas commander.

The Israeli Defense Forces have published photos they say were discovered on a laptop in Gaza that show Al Jazeera journalist Mohamed Washah engaged in Hamas terrorist activities.

Neither Al Jazeera nor the Qatari government have responded to the Sun’s request for comment.

    No that’s my inference based on the lack of evidence.

    The claim and the evidence is that Hamas hardly ever admits to casualties.

    The evidence that Hamas doesn’t distinguish it’s fighters is the lack of evidence of Hamas admitting to its fighters being killed. I can’t prove a lack of something that doesn’t exist.

      You made absolutely no indication that it was an inference. It was just a statement, as if it were fact.

      The claim and the evidence is that Hamas hardly ever admits to casualties.

      You have provided no evidence.

      The evidence is the lack of evidence

      What the fuck does this even mean?
