    it’s just a calendar

    I’m very skeptical of this claim right here.

    I didn’t notice anything specific in the calendar itself, but when I used Google translate, the top of the calendar read:

    “For the Battle of Toukan Al-Akher 10/23/7”

    I’m assuming the date is October 7, 2023 and it’s the result of Google mistranslating from Arabic, but that doesn’t sound like a typical calendar.

    I feel like people are trying to pretend the hostages were held nowhere.

      The top line says “Battle of Al-Aqsa flood 10/7/23” but if you translate the rest of what’s on that page its just the day of the week and date in each square. The IDF propagandist explicitly claims in the video that it is a guard shift list with people’s names on it which is a blatant lie.

        Yes, I agree. I noticed the days and saw no names. He seems to be wrong about what it says, but people in this thread seem to be wrong about it just being some random calendar.

        I don’t like to replace wrong information with wrong information.
