The same Jeremy Scahill has spent all year denying and/or making excuses for rape while elevating utter lunatic "sources".

From my (admittedly rather limited) search, the information seem to be from award winning and/or legitimate sources.

We went through this several pages ago. There is far better evidence of rape committed by Hamas on 10/7 than there ever was for rape committed by Donald Trump, Bret Kavanagh, Bill Cosby, Jerry Sandusky, etc. Read the links I provided to see the rhetorical tricks Scahill relies on for his denialism. His interview on Democracy Now is just him repeating himself. The entire concept that "maybe the Assadist bootlickers at Grayzone, plus Electronic Slave Auction err uhh I mean Intifada, are not good sources in general, let alone for this in particular" gets no hearing at all. He's not going to bring up that his sources are insane and neither are the hosts. So I mention it here, for you to notice and think about in a way that Mediafactcheck.org won't do for you.
Thank you, however I remember you also stated that evidence you gave to a different poster was from "one of the world's most respected newspapers", which seems to be correct. Well, I've also used a well-trusted source, hence the fact-check links. Thus, I can't really dismiss Scahill, due to the lack of criticism I've come across in my own (again, admittedly short) online search for him.
I was pointing out that "one of the world's most respected newspapers" actually doesn't deserve respect because of how badly they botched their story. And if the New York Times can screw up that badly, you can rest assured that so can The Intercept, a website founded a whole ten years ago.

Sorry for not understanding your initial point. As for the intercept, although some scandals have occurred, there haven't been any regarding the matter at hand (at least not to my knowledge).
Hezbollah rocket hits UN peacekeeper camp.
Huh, so they do know what these rockets are. Considering the peacekeeper force sat back while Hezbollah spent the last year firing thousands of rockets into Israel I didn't think they knew.
I cracked up at the BBC reporting. Thought to match Hezbollah equipment. It's a mystery. Who can say for sure?

No wonder the MIGA set wants Trump to win.
Netanyahu has fired Yoav Gallant as defense minister. He had already fired Gallant last year during the judicial overhaul affair, which prompted immense national protests and a general strike unprecedented in Israeli history and forced Netanyahu to back down. This time it appears to be for keeps. Gallant had repeatedly clashed with Netanyahu over military strategy, particularly on the latter's demand for "total victory" and maintaining permanent control over the Philadelphi Corridor, saying those goals would undermine potential hostage negotiations. Early word is that protests have started forming again, like they didn't have enough to worry about over there.
Gallant is replaced by former foreign minister Israel Katz, a longtime Netanyahu loyalist who opposes a two-state solution and got in some trouble over the summer for seeming to endorse relocating Palestinians from the West Bank, then denying he had said it.
I can't believe the level of ruinous, criminal stupidity they have running the place. All of their recent problems could have been avoided. Easily. Trivially.

Protests erupt in Israel after Netanyahu fires defence minister
Benjamin Netanyahu says there is a "crisis of trust" between him and Yoav Gallant, and replaces him with Israel Katz.

Gaza’s top Islamic scholar issues fatwa against October attack
It is an embarrassing critique for Hamas, which has used religious arguments to justify its actions.

The BBC journalists are not even bothering to make the most basic of checks - before they promote Hamas propaganda to a global audience.

The only named Gazan based source for the claims in the BBC article was a Dr Fadel Naim, director of the Al-Ahly hospital...
His timeline is full of open support for the October 7 atrocities:
This is an image from his daughter’s wedding. The top table at the event included not just Fadel Naim, the BBC ‘witness’ – but also Ismail Haniyeh – the (then) leader of Hamas in Gaza:
And here are the two of them together at the same event:

Welp; Palestine's a parking lot.
THANKS, Dearborn!

If that's true, then it's unfortunate. However, it's rather hard to report on the Gaza situation reliably due to Israel effectively "soft-blocking" journalists' access to the area:^The BBC's article for the Jabalia death count is entirely sourced from one of the Al-Ahli hospital hoaxers.

I believe I heard a BBC journalist mention this in a recent report about Israeli attacks that killed civilians in Gaza (timestamped below).
