Rashida "Ratshit" Tlaib shares fake poll claiming half of Israelis support rape of terrorists
[JPost] Noura Erakat admitted to posting fake news about Israeli public opinion on rape, which was shared by Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib.

US Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib reposted on Wednesday a doctored poll claiming that 47% of Israelis believe IDF soldiers have a right to rape Palestinians. It was tweeted by Noura Erakat, who later admitted on X that it was fake.

Erakat posted a doctored image of an N12 poll on Wednesday, stating, "When you tell a society they have a right to commit genocide, surely they believe they have a right to rape," suggesting that 47% of Israelis believe that it is justified to rape a handcuffed terrorist.

In her post, which has since been deleted, Erakat shared an image with the poll’s title completely changed. Originally, N12’s poll illustrated the Israeli public’s stance regarding the claims that the Israeli government relies on terrorism supporters.

However, the doctored image which Erakat shared on X claims that 47% of the Israeli public "agree that a soldier is allowed to rape a Palestinian."

Michigan congresswoman Rashida Tlaib shared Erakat’s post, contributing to the spread of anti-Israel propaganda.

However, shortly after Tlaib shared the post, American journalist Yasher (Alex) Ali posted on X, stating, "Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib has retweeted the tweet on the left which contains a digitally altered image."
