Controversial Satirical Article Praises Hamas Attack Timing for Netanyahu

Satirical website The Onion faced backlash for publishing an article joking about the timing of a deadly Hamas attack, suggesting it was beneficial for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Social media users criticized the article as callous and accused The Onion of producing leftist drivel. This is not the first time The Onion has faced controversy for its satire, as it previously tweeted an offensive comment about a 9-year-old Oscar nominee. The publication later apologized.
