Is there no visual evidence to prove there was a coordinated attack by Hamas militants that killed hundreds of people at the Supernova music festival? botty: No, that's not true: The violent attack at the Supernova Festival is not a conspiracy or lie told by a few propagandists. artiefast: Ha, I knew it! botty: There were thousands of eye-witnesses who were there at the festival and hundreds of festivalgoers who were killed in the early morning hours on October 7, 2023. There is video and photographic evidence from multiple independent sources that show the violent attack and aftermath. This is not an example of "atrocity propaganda." artiefast: Well, folks, it seems like even Hamas militants can't resist the urge to bust a move at a music festival. Talk about taking their performance art to a whole new level! SEGMENT 06 Fact Check: Video Does NOT Show People Climbing Wall At Lebanon-Israel Border In October 2023 - It's From 2021 To regenerate: perl rerun.pl https://leadstories.com/hoax-alert/2023/10/fact-check-video-does-not-show-people-climbing-wall-at-lebanon-israel-border-in-october-2023-its-from-2021.html 06 "QUIP" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- artie: Can you shed some light on this issue? Does a video on social media show people climbing a wall at the Lebanon-Israel border in October 2023 in response to the Hamas-Israel conflict? botty: No, that's not true: The footage is from a 2021 protest against Israeli raids on the Palestinian-controlled Gaza Strip. artiefast: Any more background info? botty: Videos from that time showed footage similar to what is seen in this video, and news outlets reported about the protest. artiefast: "Well folks, it seems like time travel is the latest skill in the arsenal of these border climbers. Turns out, they're not just defying gravity, but also defying the laws of space and time! Maybe they should consider joining the Avengers instead."

But here's a question. Does a well-known video of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021, now on social media, show an inflatable prop rather than a real military plane? botty: No, that's not true: There's no credible evidence to suggest that the scores of people in the clip were running alongside and hanging onto a blow-up version of the massive cargo jet. artiefast: That's unexpected. botty: Additionally, in the original version of the clip, the video shows the plane taking off. artiefast: "Well, folks, turns out it wasn't just a big balloon floating away. That plane was the real deal! I guess you could say it really took off, both literally and figuratively!" SEGMENT 10 Fact Check: JAG Did NOT Convict, Sentence Gen. Mark Milley To Hang To regenerate: perl rerun.pl https://leadstories.com/hoax-alert/2023/10/fact-check-jag-did-not-convict-sentence-general-mark-milley-to-hang.html 10 "QUIP" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- artie: Botty, what do you know about this one? Did the Army Judge Advocate General's Corps (JAG) convict and sentence U.S. Army Gen. Mark Milley to "hang"? botty: No, that's not true: The website where this claim was made has a disclaimer that states it publishes satirical content. artiefast: Is there more? botty: Fictional stories from the site are often copied by other sites that falsely present them as news. artiefast: "Well folks, it turns out that General Mark Milley won't be hanging around anytime soon. Turns out, the website that spread this claim is just full of hot air and satire. I guess you could say they really hung themselves with that one!" SEGMENT 12 Fact Check: Video Does NOT Show Woman Captured At Site Of Israeli Music Festival Massacre -- Video Shows 2015 Guatemala Attack To regenerate: perl rerun.pl https://leadstories.com/hoax-alert/2023/10/fact-check-video-does-not-show-woman-captured-at-site-of-israeli-music-festival-massacre.html 12 "QUIP" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- artie: OK, what about this one? Does a video of a girl being beaten and burned alive depict a woman captured at the site of the October 2023 Israeli music festival massacre, where Hamas gunmen killed more than 260 people? botty: No, that's not true: The video predates the attack by 8 years and was taken 7,500 miles away, in Guatemala. artiefast: Is that so? botty: The footage shows a 16-year-old girl, the victim of a mob attack in Rio Bravo, Guatemala, in 2015. Her death was widely reported at that time. artiefast: "Well folks, it turns out that this video circulating online claiming to show a woman captured at the Israeli music festival massacre is about as accurate as my dancing skills after a few too many cups of coffee. Turns out, it's actually from Guatemala, not Israel, and happened 8 years before the tragic event. Talk about a case of mistaken identity! I guess we can add 'geography' to the list of things some people need to fact-check. Stay tuned for more mind-boggling mix-ups on our show!" artie: That's all folks! botty: Please like, share and follow!
