Netanyahu Was Beaten Up in Israeli Parliament !!

Publisher’s rating: Misleading

The review says the video does not show Netanyahu being beaten in parliament. It identifies the footage as showing a man pointing a gas pistol at a Turkish minority party leader during a party caucus in Sofia in January 2013; no shots were fired, and police quickly controlled the situation.

斎藤知事の要請で百条委員会が非公開に？

Publisher’s rating: 誤り

The review says the committee decided on October 11 to hold the October 24–25 hearings privately, citing concern about their effect on the gubernatorial election. Saito’s side later submitted a request asking committee members not to share information before formal release; the review says this was not a request to make the hearings private.

斎藤知事が兵庫県公式サイト「知事の活動記録」を削除？

Publisher’s rating: 不正確

The review found that records before November 2023 were no longer visible on the page, but Hyogo Prefecture said the site had long displayed only the most recent year and automatically removed older entries. Archived versions showed the same one-year display during former Governor Ido’s tenure and before Saito’s term.
