"The only source for these misleading, exaggerated, and utterly fabricated stories came from Hamas sources, which are designed to fan the flames of antisemitic hate that is arguably contributing to violence against Jews in the United States." And: "It represents more than mere sloppy journalism. It’s feeding and inciting violence against innocent people in the United States."

News reports can be wrong. When they are, the fix is a correction. Huckabee said the reports were designed to make people hate Jews. That turns coverage of a war into antisemitism.
What Actually Happened
Several top U.S. news organizations, including The New York Times and CNN, reported that Israeli forces had killed Palestinians lined up for food aid in Gaza.
