"nightmare happened"

Such passive language. How about "atrocity was committed"?

Also...

Gaza health authorities said more than 100 Palestinians were shot dead by Israeli forces. Israel challenged the death toll and said many of the victims were run over by aid trucks.

WTF? And who was driving these trucks?

It's a lie, no one was run over by aid trucks, they we're shot by Israeli forces.

No doubt, but what I was getting at was how shoddy the reporting clearly is there. They don't even say if they asked for more details on this very bizarre claim.

-Hamas, of course!

(no, really, that's actually what they claim)
