Thread: Two different versions of this AI-generated image purporting to show President Trump and his assistant Natalie Harp kissing went viral this week, generating millions of views across multiple platforms. Despite being fake, this wasn't a straightforward AI image to debunk.
I'll explain why.
![Exhibit A
Recently, there has been some international attention to some of the violence, and even some attention to the military standing by while the violence—
That is not true. I don’t agree with that. Most of the military support the settlers. Most of the government, of course, does. But also the army and the police. They do not stand aside. They help them. They don’t just let them do what they want to do. They help them with money and roads. I will give you an example. There is a closed military zone, and the commander takes a map and claims no one can get in. And in this area, there are supposed to be no Israelis allowed—only Palestinians and the army itself. This happened in Qusra. No one could get in except the people who lived there, they said. But then the military commander allowed a lot of settlers to come in and build, and even to start committing crimes against Palestinians. When I was arrested, it was in a closed military zone, and they arrested me because I was there. But they left the settlers. These settlers had wanted to break a kind of water well that the Palestinians were using. But the army came and took me and arrested me and left the settlers there to break the gate to the well and allow their goats to drink from it. This is how the army helps the settlers with their crimes. [Meinert called me a couple of days after our interview and told me, “The settlers came to the same place, and dumped the water on the floor. The army came again and just watched the settlers do it.”]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:lb5rzms2ky5fmp6clthjwuvx/bafkreibmiyqhfziboflnjiugd5fyqy33apeg5pmxm74g7cacl7y4fakyma)
