Israeli network censors report exposing Oct 7 ‘hero’ as hoaxer

Because of peoples ‘feelings’.
In other news, the truth fairy is real.

Edit: meant to add, my reason for posting. From talking to people (and their blank stares), it’s surprising the number of people you meet who are unaware that the whole kit’n coboodle of the official/Israeli narrative has even been challenged.

Israeli network censors report exposing Oct 7 ‘hero’ as hoaxer
Wyatt Reed·April 8, 2025

Under public pressure, an Israeli network censored a report which would have exposed a key face of Israel’s October 7 PR campaign as a fabulist. Rami Davidian claimed to have rescued over 750 young Israelis and witnessed hideous scenes of rape by Hamas. His bogus testimonies were cited by the UN and filmmaker Sheryl Sandberg.

Israeli broadcaster Channel 13 has announced that it will no longer air an investigation into the fabrications of Rami Davidian, a settler who was lionized as a hero after claiming to have rescued over 750 Israelis at the Nova music festival on October 7, following a major public pressure campaign.

“We are aware of the public’s feelings and the consequences of broadcasting the episode and prefer not to broadcast it at this time,” Channel 13 wrote in an April 4 statement. A promotional video published by Channel 13 reporter Raviv Drucker on X the day before attracted hundreds of crude and expletive-filled comments from fanatical Israeli settlers, with the most-liked reply referring to Drucker as a “piece of shit” and accusing him of seeking to push Davidian to commit suicide.
