The claim that Israel has committed genocide in Gaza is now an integral part of thinking on the left and on the Tucker Carlson right. It is a lie, but it\u2019s a Big Lie that must be challenged every minute of every day. Most recently, it cropped up in the context of a really gorgeous, heartwarming video out of the UAE, showing an Emirati singer joining an Israeli singer to sing the Israeli national anthem at the Israeli Embassy in Abu Dhabi:<\/p>

Abu Dhabi.\r\nUne sc\u00e8ne impensable\r\nLe chanteur \u00e9mirati Ahmed Alhosani et l’isra\u00e9lienne Nicole Raviv ont interpr\u00e9t\u00e9 ensemble l’Hatikva l’hymne national d’Isra\u00ebl , lors de la toute premi\u00e8re c\u00e9r\u00e9monie de Yom Haatsmaout organis\u00e9e aux \u00c9mirats arabes unis, dans le cadre des Accords\u2026 pic.twitter.com\/lQKR3dcHOR<\/p>\r\n\u2014 Chelanou (@chelanou) August 20, 2026<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n

The auto-translated text reads:<\/p>\n

Abu Dhabi.\u00a0<\/p>\n

An unthinkable scene\u00a0<\/p>\n

Emirati singer Ahmed Alhosani and Israeli Nicole Raviv performed the Hatikva, Israel’s national anthem, together at the very first Yom Ha’atzmaout ceremony organized in the United Arab Emirates, as part of the Abraham Accords.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This is what intelligence between peoples can produce.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Two cultures, two histories, one voice\u2014that’s true peace.\u00a0<\/p>\n

While in Europe they burn Israeli flags, in the Arab world they sing hope.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This duo will go down in history. Hats off.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I agree with Chelanou\u2019s take. The UAE enthusiastically embraced the Abraham Accords and has honored them ever since. This is, indeed, what peace in the Middle East could look like.<\/p>\n

But the top comment to this beautiful video has a different take:<\/p>\n

Vous \u00eates S\u00c9RIEUX !!??\r\nVous trouvez une satisfaction dans cette sc\u00e8ne car elle d\u00e9douanerait les criminels isra\u00e9liens des atrocit\u00e9s commises contre les palestiniens, la destruction de leur territoire, l\u2019occupation de cette prison !!!\n\r\nVotre esprit est tellement pourrit par la\u2026<\/p>\r\n\u2014 Claudy Siar (@Claudy_Siar) August 21, 2026<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n

And again, the auto-translate:<\/p>\n

\n

Are you SERIOUS !!??<\/p>\n

You find satisfaction in this scene because it would absolve the Israeli criminals of the atrocities committed against the Palestinians, the destruction of their territory, the occupation of this prison !!!<\/p>

Your mind is so rotten with the colonial mentality that “the other” means nothing to you! They only matter if they support the crimes of the Israeli army or if they are silenced by Netanyahu’s policy.<\/p>\n

Ben vir being the dumbest of all.<\/p>\n

Your post is the height of inhumanity and unabashed racism.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I doubt Claudy Siar is open to reason, but for those who can still look at facts, analyze them logically, and reach a conclusion untethered to hysterical propaganda, I highly recommend Gerald Posner\u2019s \u201cDebunking the Lie of the Century.\u201d In it, he offers a short primer for anyone who wishes to challenge the claim that Israel has been committing atrocities in Gaza, including actual genocide.<\/p>\n

I cannot possibly do justice to what Posner wrote, so you really must read his essay, but here is a summary of his analysis of the many fallacies underlying the \u201cgenocide\u201d claim:<\/p>\n
