The Phantom of Gaza

How a Virginia doctor fueled a misinformation firestorm
94

The claims made by Dr. Irfan Galaria, as stated in an opinion piece published in the Los Angeles Times do not hold up under scrutiny once placed in a standard intelligence probability matrix.

This is my job. If you can afford to send me $5 a month I would really appreciate it.

The doctor asserts to have treated patients in Gaza, portraying a harrowing image of the situation there. However, scrutiny reveals inconsistencies in his narrative, leading to doubts about the veracity of his account.

Additionally, the doctor's assertions about the conflict, such as the use of sniper shots targeting children, are of highly questionable plausibility due to the nature of standard Israeli sniper cartridges.

This ultimately questions the reliability of the doctor's testimony and highlights the dangers of misinformation, particularly when it enters mainstream media channels unchecked.

One eagle-eyed viewer found a Facebook post from February 6th, 2024 which may indicate that the doctor was in Gaza since it came from the European Gaza Hospital Facebook page. Facial recognition did not index this picture.
