Her continued work has seen Accurso being attacked by pro-Israeli groups. Last month, in a post on social media, the advocacy group StopAntisemitism asked Attorney General Pam Bondi to investigate if Accurso was “being funded by a foreign party to push anti-Israel propaganda to skew public opinion.”

The group accused the content creator of being an “amplifier of Hamas propaganda,” saying images that she shared of children in Gaza were manipulated.

The sad irony being that basically everyone on the hill is "being funded by a foreign party to push ~~anti~~ Israel propaganda to skew public opinion."

Important to know that "Stopantisemitism" isn't an advocacy group, it's one weird Zionist freak who's sole stated goal is to doxx people who are anti-isreal.

I fucking despise lazy journalism like this. Don’t repeat these claims if you aren’t going to investigate them and determine whether they’re true or false. Else it’s nothing but gossip.

Anyone have the details on this claim? Are these images manipulated or is this just hateful BS as usual?

Precisely. It’s not even worth looking into such claims, because they are simply made to discredit the indisputable truth that children are being killed.

Jean-Paul Sartre, on anti-semites but I find it well applies to this situation too:

Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.

Jesus the idea that we have to defend a woman who's known solely for her work with kids. But oh no she might care about the wrong kids?
