Newly Updated in central paragraphs, 12 Dec 24: Heard of ZAKA and YOSSI LANDAU yet? *** MORE CRIME SCENE COMMENTARY REFUTATIONS AND NARRATIVE DEBUNKING ***

Just a small extract from my large 60 page new chapter forensically exposing ZAKA's numerous lies, exaggerations and fantasies about OCTOBER 7, responding to full transcripts of his key interviews

Page 5

The body of testimonies in front of you documents a terrible truth,

FACTUAL PROBLEM:

THE TESTIMONIES ARE FROM UNRELIABLE WITNESSES, PREVIOUSLY PROVEN TO HAVE LIED, EXAGGERATED CRIME SCENES, MOVED BODIES AND COME UP WITH FANTASTICAL CRIME SCENARIOS.

CONCLUSION:

TRUTH IS THE KEY HERE. TERRIBLE LIES CONTRIBUTE ONLY CONFUSION AND FALSE PREMISES FOR REVENGE.

First-hand from eyewitnesses, individual stories from people's mouths,

FACTUAL PROBLEM:

THERE WERE NO EYE WITNESSES TO THE VAST MAJORITY OF THESE ALLEGED CRIMES.

THE “INDIVIDUAL STORIES” ARE INDEED JUST THAT - STORIES FROM RESCUE WORKERS RESPONSE TEAM’S MOUTHS, WHO WERE ALSO NOT EVEN WITNESSES TO THE CRIMES BEING COMMITTED.

CONCLUSION:

BECAUSE THERE WERE VERY RARELY ACTUAL EYE WITNESSES TO THE ALLEGED CRIMES, THE STATEMENTS OF THE RESCUE WORKERS RESPONSE TEAM ARE MOSTLY SIMPLY UNRELIABLE ASSUMPTION OR CONJECTURE.

without summarizing events,

FACTUAL PROBLEM:

THIS IS UNTRUE. MOST EVENTS WERE INDEED SUMMARISED. MORE DETAIL WAS ALSO GIVEN LATER IN MOST CASES.

CONCLUSION:

THIS IS AN UNRELIABLE, MOSTLY UNTRUE STATEMENT OF FACT.

without headlines and generalizations or sensationalism.

FACTUAL PROBLEM:

HEADLINES WERE INDEED EFFECTIVELY CREATED!

THERE WERE ALSO QUITE A FEW GENERALISATIONS.

MOST OF THE ALLEGATIONS WERE INDEED HIGHLY SENSATIONAL!

CONCLUSION:

THIS STATEMENT STATES THE ALMOST COMPLETE OPPOSITE OF WHAT IS TRUE.

We must not cover up the naked truth that was revealed before our eyes on the morning of the Black Sabbath. We must document and preserve it for generations.

FACTUAL PROBLEM:

NONE OF THE RESPONSE TEAM RESCUE WORKERS WERE PRESENT WHEN ANY OF THE ALLEGED CRIMES TOOK PLACE.

THEY SIMPLY WITNESSED VARIOUS ALLEGED CRIME SCENES.

THEY REFER TO “DOCUMENTING” AND “PRESERVING,” BUT PHOTOGRAPHS WERE CLAIMED BY THEM TO BE FORBIDDEN TO BE TAKEN. YET STILL SOMETIMES THEY WERE AND SOMETIMES THEY WERE NOT. EITHER THEY HAD OFFICIAL CHARITY CAMERAS OR THEY DID NOT. IF THEY OCCASIONALLY USED THEIR OWN PERSONAL CAMERAS, THAT WOULD BE HIGHLY UNETHICAL AND UNPROFESSIONAL.

REGARDING “PRESERVATION,” BOTH BODIES AND OBJECTS WERE FREELY ADMITTED TO HAVE BEEN MOVED, OR EVEN FULLY REMOVED. THIS FLIES IN THE FACE OF ANY NECESSARY AND ESSENTIAL CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATIONS.

CONCLUSION:

THIS STATEMENT IS HIGHLY MISLEADING AND INACCURATE. IT IS THEREFORE HIGHLY UNRELIABLE.

Our people have fulfilled this duty throughout the generations in stories of destruction, poems, and during the Memorial Day observances of the "Shom" communities. In the composition "Yeven Mezulah" (The Abyss of Despair) about the riots of 1648-1650, in Bialik's mission to document the Kishinev riots and in the dedication of Ilya Ehrenburg and Vasily Grossman to documenting in "The Black Book" the horrors of the Holocaust despite the silence and persecution of the Soviet regime. The obligation of documentation and remembrance is, first and foremost, for our brothers and sisters to ensure that their last cry will be fully heard.

FACTUAL PROBLEM:

THE ALLEGED “DOCUMENTATION” WAS EVIDENTLY BOTH HIGHLY FLAWED AND WOEFULLY INADEQUATE IN MOST CASES.

THE “LAST CRIES” OF THE ALLEGED VICTIMS WERE NEVER HEARD BY THE RESPONSE TEAM RESCUE WORKERS. THEIR ASSUMPTIONS OF WHAT THEY LAST SUFFERED IS THEREFORE MERELY SUPPOSITION OR CONJECTURE.

CONCLUSION:

THE LIMITED DOCUMENTATION IS BOTH UNRELIABLE AND SERIOUSLY INADEQUATE.

Only through it can we look straight ahead and listen to the truth behind it, to its claim and fully understand the hope and prayer that it is.

FACTUAL PROBLEM:

THE “TRUTH BEHIND” SOMETHING AND IT’S “CLAIMS,” WITHOUT VERY CLEAR, IRREFUTABLE EVIDENCE, IS AGAIN SIMPLY ASSUMPTION AND CONJECTURE.

CONCLUSION:

ANY CLAIMS ARE NOT AUTOMATICALLY INHERENTLY TRUTHFUL.

An abbreviation - A common nickname for the Jewish communities in the cities of Shapira, Vermeiza and Magentza on the banks of the Rhine River. The decrees of the New Testament severely harmed these communities as a result of the Crusades. Never back down. The Black Sabbath was a reminder of a most difficult truth, a truth that the whole world discovered at the end of World War II and the Holocaust we went through. A truth that resulted in the oath "never again" that was fulfilled three years later with the establishment of the State of Israel and in the victory of the 1948 Independence War.

FACTUAL PROBLEM:

“NEVER AGAIN” MUST APPLY TO EVERYONE, EVERYWHERE, NOT JUST THE MOSTLY JEWISH ISRAELI COMMUNITY OR STATE.

THE OATH “NEVER AGAIN” WAS NOT FULFILLED BY THE ESTABLISHMENT OF COLONIAL, APARTHEID ISRAEL.

ISRAEL DID NOT “WIN” INDEPENDENCE IN 1948. THEY STOLE MOST OF THE LAND AND HOUSES AND MURDERED OVER 15,000 PALESTINIANS AND ARABS.

CONCLUSION:

THE THIRD REICH’S NAZI HOLOCAUST IS GENERALLY INCOMPARABLE TO WHAT HAMAS ACTUALLY DID ON OCTOBER 7, EITHER IN ACTUAL CRIME, NOR IN NUMBERS OF CASUALTIES (3-6 MILLION VS. 695 CIVILIANS - APPROXIMATELY HALF OF WHICH WERE KILLED BY HAMAS.)

HOWEVER, BIZARRELY, WHAT ISRAEL DID TO ITS OWN SOLDIERS AND CITIZENS ON OCTOBER 7 WAS FAR MORE SIMILAR TO THE MURDEROUS CRIMES OF THE NAZI HOLOCAUST.

****

The Black Sabbath was another dimension in the Jewish timeline, which illustrated to us what happens when the Jews don't have a state and what happens when the Jews don't have weapons. But unlike the past, the oath "never again" was not a future promise. This oath took place at the same time as the Holocaust that happened to the residents of the South. On the morning of that Saturday, I saw this double revelation before my eyes when I was fighting along with my friends in the kibbutzim that surrounded Gaza. We were citizens who marched south before an order and decree, messengers of a country that did not exist. On the one hand, before our eyes, Auschwitz was resurrected,

FACTUAL PROBLEM:

THERE WAS NO HOLOCAUST ON OCTOBER 7.

IT IS EVEN DEBATABLE IF IT WAS EVEN A GENOCIDE.

AUSCHWITZ WAS NOT RESURRECTED, BUT MEMORIES OF IT AND ITS DOCUMENTATION, YES.

CONCLUSION:

THIS IS AN UNINTENTIONAL EMOTIONAL EXAGGERATION OF WHAT OCCURRED ON OCTOBER 7.

and on the other hand, before our eyes, the ghetto rebels, the partisans, the underground fighters, and the heroes of 1947-1948 also rose. Thousands of years of destiny suddenly flowed through our veins, a Jewish destiny with an Israeli response. The ability to decide, lead, and commend even when all the forces of the universe are working against you and not to back down.

FACTUAL PROBLEM:

THERE WERE NO ZIONIST HEROES IN 1947-48.

ZIONIST ISRAEL IS NOT THE INTENDED DESTINY OF JUDAISM.

“ALL THE FORCES OF THE UNIVERSE WERE NOT WORKING AGAINST YOU.” - FAR FROM IT!

CONCLUSION:

THIS IS A DELIBERATE, PARTIALLY UNINTENTIONAL, REPETITION OF ZIONIST MYTH OF A RIGHTEOUS INVASION, WAR AND DAY OF INDEPENDENCE IN MAY 1948.

ISRAEL-is' was founded to tell the personal stories of Israelis, through ordinary people, through everyday life, to bring the story of a country. October 7TH only proved this need even more. From there, we embarked on a long and arduous journey to tell the story of a nation through ordinary people, through everyday life, through those hours and through heroes, believing in the role of Israelis not only to survive and prosper but also to send a message. The belief that the global attention to what is happening in our small country is disproportionate compared to the rest of the world

FACTUAL PROBLEM:

OCTOBER 7 DIDN’T CHANGE ANYTHING IN THIS RESPECT. WE ALL ALREADY KNEW THE STORY OF ISRAEL.

THE EXTENSIVE GLOBAL COVERAGE IS PREDOMINANTLY BECAUSE OF ZIONIST ISRAEL’S NUMEROUS PROVOCATIONS OF PALESTINIANS. JUST AS MUCH, IF NOT MORE, THE INVARIABLY HIGHLY DISPROPORTIONATE MILITARY AND VERBAL RESPONSES WHEN PALESTINIANS DARE TO FIGHT BACK AGAINST THEIR OCCUPATION.

CONCLUSION:

THIS IS AGAIN ISRAELI AND JEWISH VICTIM CARD PLAYING, ALBEIT OFTEN AN INSTINCTIVE RESPONSE.

made us find an opportunity to proclaim the gospel that grows out of the worst of all, the gospel of the human spirit of heroism and devotion whose starting point is love and hope.

FACTUAL PROBLEM:

GOSPEL?!?

HEROISM?

DEVOTION TO WHAT AND WHO?

LOVE?

HOPE?

CONCLUSION:

THIS IS A BIZARRE STATEMENT WHICH BARES LITTLE OR NO CONNECTION TO REALITY.

Yet more analysis of Zaka testimony and associated commentary:

The 'ISRAEL-is' association aims to harness the potential of tens of thousands of young Israelis to tell the Israeli story in the world. Among our many actions, we joined our fellow, the author of this book, to create the document before you, a collection of testimonies without boundaries.

FACTUAL PROBLEM:

THE DOCUMENT IS EXTREMELY FLAWED.

THE TESTIFIERS ARE INCOMPETENT, MENTALLY ILL OR CORRUPT.

THE TESTIMONIES ARE WHOLLY UNRELIABLE.

THE TESTIMONIES OFTEN CONTRADICT THE ACTUAL EVIDENCE.

“WITHOUT BOUNDARIES” IMPLIES UNREDACTED, COMPREHENSIVE ACCOUNTS OF WHAT WAS DISCOVERED AND WHAT HAPPENED ON OCTOBER 7, YET THE “(UNLIMITED) BOUNDARIES” VERY LARGE AMOUNTS OF SUPPOSITION AND SPECULATION.

CONCLUSION:

THIS DOCUMENT IS HIGHLY UNRELIABLE AND CONTAINS NUMEROUS FANTASTICAL SPECULATIONS AND OFTEN EXTREME INACCURACIES.

This book demands each of us to look courageously in the face of evil, not only to commit to "never again" yet again but also not to reject a plea to bring forth the gospel of creation, growth, and hope that our existence here symbolizes.

FACTUAL PROBLEM:

THE TERM “FACE OF EVIL” DEMONISES AND DEHUMANISES HAMAS AND OTHER PALESTINIAN MEN.

ITS SINGULAR USE ALSO SEEMS TO IMPLY THAT ALL GAZAN PALESTINIANS ARE EVIL.

“NEVER AGAIN” REFERS TO THE FIRST NAZI HOLOCAUST.

WHAT OCCURRED ON OCTOBER 7 WAS PARTIALLY HOLOCAUST-LIKE, BUT THE VAST MAJORITY OF THOSE CRIMES WERE COMMITTED BY THE ISRAEL AIR FORCE (IAF) AND ISRAEL DEFENCE FORCES (IDF.)

A “GOSPEL OF CREATION, GROWTH AND HOPE” DOES NOT SYMBOLISE COLONIAL, APARTHEID, OCCUPYING, GENOCIDAL ISRAEL.

CONCLUSION:

THIS IS EITHER AN UNINTENTIONAL OR PARTIALLY DELIBERATE WHITEWASHING OF JEWISH ZIONISM. IT DEHUMANISES GAZAN PALESTINIANS, WHILE EXTOLLING THE ALLEGED VIRTUES OF EARLIER AND MODERN-DAY ISRAEL.

"Violence shall no more be heard in your land, desolation nor destruction within your borders; but you shall call your walls Salvation, and your gates Praise." ​— ​(Isaiah 60:18) Nimrod Palmach CEO of ISRAEL-is

FACTUAL PROBLEM:

“Violence shall no more be heard in your land, desolation nor destruction within your borders.”

This is highly ironical given that violence and destruction was drastically increased by Israel on October 7. It has also massively increased violence and destruction within what most Israelis call “Greater Israel” since October 7, for over a year and two months, as of December 8 2024. Indeed, destruction and limited violence has also not stopped in Israel itself, due to the genocides in Gaza, Lebanon and the West Bank, and what has been the Second Holocaust in Gaza for over a year now.

CONCLUSION:

THIS QUOTATION IS NOT RELEVANT TO THE CURRENT CONFLICTS IN ISRAEL AND ITS SURROUNDING COUNTRIES.

Chapter One Testimonies from ZAKA Volunteers

FACTUAL PROBLEM:

TESTIMONIES CAN INHERENTLY BE MISLEADING AND INACCURATE, AND THEREFORE UNRELIABLE.

THE ZAKA FIRST RESPONSE RESCUE VOLUNTARY ORGANISATION HAS REPEATEDLY BEEN PROVEN TO BE INCOMPETENT, UNRELIABLE, UNPROFESSIONAL, AND OCCASIONALLY BRIBED AND CORRUPT.

ZAKA ARE NOT FORENSIC EXPERTS, NOR HAVE THEY BEEN FORENSICALLY TRAINED.

ZAKA ARE NOT EITHER OFFICIAL, OR FULLY TRAINED EXPERTS, IN DOCUMENTING ALLEGED CRIME SCENES.

ZAKA ARE KNOWN TO MOVE BOTH BODIES AND EVIDENCE, THEREBY CONTAMINATING ALLEGED CRIME SCENES.

CONCLUSION:

ANY ZAKA TESTIMONIES ARE GENERALLY HIGHLY UNRELIABLE.

“…(a) foreign worker who had her head torn off by stepping on it with a foot."

FACTUAL PROBLEM:

COVERED BY LATER ANALYSIS BELOW

CONCLUSION:

COVERED BY LATER ANALYSIS BELOW

THIS WAS A BLATANT LIE BY SHLOMO GOTLIV.

"The things I saw there, you wouldn't see in horror movies or even in movies about the Holocaust. Movies don’t come close to what I saw. They really don't come close to it," Reuven, who has been working at ZAKA as a vehicle and logistics manager for twenty years, told me. "We've been through a lot at ZAKA but never experienced things like this. Smashed heads, amputations, it's just unimaginably horrifying." I tried to find out where Reuven was mainly exposed to the horrors he described, and he immediately used Kibbutz Be'eri as an example. He told me about the dental clinic belonging to the kibbutz, where, according to him, mainly children, but also adults, escaped from the inferno. "There was a battle there. Two adults tried to protect the doors and windows, and in the end, the terrorists just threw some grenades, blew up the place, and shot all the children." Reuven said that even though the terrorists had already blown up all the glass and managed to invade the clinic and harm the children, it was not enough for them. According to him, their game was to pass child after child, shoot a bullet in their head, and move on. With faint hope, I nevertheless tried to extract some optimistic information from Reuven, some kind of miracle that happened in the clinic. "So, they just killed all the children?" I asked as I prayed for some good news. "All the children who were in the clinic were murdered. No one survived. There were seven children there, and we took out seven bodies. They were all murdered." I asked him to tell me why the children went to the dental clinic, of all places, in the midst of the inferno. He explained that it seemed that they simply fled there to survive, which, in the end, was far from reality. I am the youngest sibling in my family, and I have four beloved nephews. They are dear to my heart, and without them, my world would be completely different. I felt the need to find out the ages of the children who were in the clinic and more general information about these murdered children. "From the age of zero to the age of one hundred. There is no age here. We met all ages. Babies, toddlers, children, adults, the elderly. They spared no one. Anyone they couldn't kidnap or didn’t interest them, they simply murdered. They murdered in cold blood. There is not one house they did not burn." The tragedy of Kibbutz Be'eri did not end at the clinic. Not by a long shot. "When I arrived at one of the houses in the kibbutz, I saw an elderly man, probably around the age of seventy-five. They simply cut off all his body parts, threw a grenade at him and left. The first thing they did was abuse him. That was their game, their fun." Instinctively and out of unfortunate curiosity, I asked Reuven if the abuse of that elderly man he was talking about took place. At the same time, he was alive, and Reuven nodded his head. "Yes, he was alive, and I believe he was killed with an ax(e), according to the marks on his body.”

FACTUAL PROBLEM:

THERE WAS NO BABY WITH 40 BULLETS SHOT INTO THEM.

NO YOUNG CHILDREN WERE DOCUMENTED AS HAVING 40 BULLETS SHOT INTO THEM.

NO BABIES WERE MURDERED ON OCTOBER 7.

NO TODDLERS WERE MURDERED ON OCTOBER 7.

NO ONE OF THE AGE OF 100 OR EVEN 90 WAS MURDERED ON OCTOBER 7.

NO ELDERLY MAN, NOR ANYONE ELSE, HAD ALL THEIR BODY PARTS CUT OFF.

CONCLUSION:

THIS WAS A BLATANT SERIES OF LIES AND/OR BIZARRE IMAGINATIONS BY SHLOMO GOTLIV.

Page 34

When I tried to find out which parts of the body were cut, he refused to answer specifically but stated, "They cut off all his body parts." I insisted on understanding the circumstances of the incident, and Reuven gave me some more information. "They cut off his body parts. Tied him up in the safe room, cut up his body, threw a grenade and left." The hellish sights did not end for him. "On the second or third day after the massacre, we found a woman hiding under the bed." Reuven, who immediately asked her how she was, said that the woman replied that she was fine, but she had a hard time dealing mentally with what was done to her foreign employee. "After calming her down, I went into the house and saw what happened. It was horrifying." "What did you see?" I asked, trying to understand the details of the incident, but Reuven still faced the horrors. "It's hard for me to tell this, very hard for me." After a few seconds of silence, he chose to continue. "They cut off her head by stomping on it, not with an axe." I tried to picture the event in my mind, but I couldn't really do it. "Is that something that can even be done?" I asked. Reuven replied that it turns out that whoever is cruel enough can. "We just saw the marks of the footprints and realized what happened." In an attempt to obtain more details and preserve that foreign worker's memory and, of course, to commemorate what happened, I had to keep insisting. Some would say that I even lacked sensitivity. “The stomping of a foot cut the head off?” I turned to Reuven with concern. "The head was cut off from the body, yes. Part of it was torn with a persistent stomp of a foot. You can see the cruelty toward the victim," he said.

FACTUAL PROBLEM:

NO MAN, OLD OR NOT, HAD EITHER ALL OR MOST OF HIS BODY PARTS CUT OFF.

NO MAN, OLD OR NOT, WAS BLOWN UP BY A GRENADE AFTER HAVING ALL OR MOST OF HIS BODY PARTS CUT OFF.

A WOMAN’S HEAD, INDEED NO HUMAN HEAD, CAN BE CUT OFF OR BROKEN OFF BY STAMPING ON IT. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE.

POSSIBLE FOOTPRINTS ON A FACE OR HEAD DOESN’T PROVE THEY WERE BEHEADED BY REPEATEDLY STAMPING ON THEIR HEAD.

THE TESTIMONY, AS DOCUMENTED, ALSO CONTRADICTS ITSELF. THE WOMAN WAS EITHER DECAPITATED OR SHE WAS NOT. HE STATES FULLY CUT OFF THEN LATER “PARTLY TORN.”

CONCLUSION:

THIS WAS EITHER A BLATANT LIE OR A VERY DISTORTED RECOLLECTION BY SHLOMO GOTLIV.

"They confirmed the baby’s death. Over forty bullets in the body of a little boy. Forty bullets! They tied people up and cut them, burned them, chopped them." When I started interviewing Shlomo Gotliv, commander of ZAKA Modi'in Elite and a volunteer with the organization for over twenty years, I shared my feelings that the testimony he was about to give actually constituted a "Zikaron Basalon⁠2" of the October 7th Holocaust. This remark did not go unnoticed by Shlomo, who had a hard time hiding his feelings. "Wow, you gave me the chills right now. You have no idea how much."

FACTUAL PROBLEM:

THERE WAS NO BABY WITH 40 BULLETS SHOT INTO THEM.

NO BABIES WERE WERE MURDERED ON OCTOBER 7.

NO YOUNG CHILDREN WERE DOCUMENTED AS HAVING 40 BULLETS SHOT INTO THEM.

CONCLUSION:

THIS WAS A BLATANT LIE BY SHLOMO GOTLIV.

*** Much more to come ***
