Season five was produced and filmed as Israel destroyed almost the entirety of the Gaza Strip, killing or injuring at least 250,000 Palestinians.

There is no reference to the bombardment in Gaza as a parallel fictitious plot is being dreamed up.

The genocide is entirely absent. It allows Israel to remain the victim.

As an exercise in genocidal apologia, Fauda’s reconstruction of 7 October has few equals.

In Fauda’s universe, Gaza is already gone.
