Why are you being secretive about the details? You may never hear back from Twitter support, but in hiding things you may miss ideas, opportunities and resources that HN users can provide to scale your feed in different ways.
No reason to keep things secret, it's just that the entire content is highly localized (specifically, it's all Hebrew) and wouldn't mean much to non-local users.

There would be less people killed on the Palestinian side if Hamas' strategy didn't include purposefully putting civilians in harms way, such as by using them (including children) for human shields when Israel gives advance notice that a particular building is going to be bombed [1] [2].

Yea, wtf, why would people live with their families? And why don't they have fancy bomb shelters like Israel! The leaflets are practically taunts. Where are the people of Gaza to go? How are they to get out? http://www.juancole.com/2014/07/numbers-people-there.html

There would be less people killed if Israel's strategy didn't include creating settlements in Palestinian territory. There's lots that can be done to reduce casualties.
Settlements are irrelevant. They also haven't expanded geographically since before the second intifada. Homes are built within the existing perimeters of the settlements.

> Also, note that all the hate speech on Rotter always takes place in the thread comments, never in the headlines, which is what we use for @rotternews. Is it now? What about these, just in the past few hours: * https://twitter.com/RotterNews/status/486621279823200256 * https://twitter.com/RotterNews/status/486621270738366464 * https://twitter.com/RotterNews/status/486631085724286976 * https://twitter.com/RotterNews/…
I would appreciate if you (or someone) would, since if they're already posted here, those of us who don't speak Hebrew are left wondering about the context of the discussion.
Let the state of #Israel to win and take your gloves without spare any Gazan!
Talk about putting the war home: Gazan Commander and his family immigrated to storm heaven.

To put things in context, after receiving a warning call from the IDF that their building was going to be bombed, the head of the household ushered the children onto the roof as human shields. http://www.cnn.com/2014/07/08/world/meast/mideast-tensions/i...
Shameful that you're being downvoted. FTA: > Official Palestinian news agency WAFA reported that six were killed. Those killed were forming a "human shield" on the roof of a home belonging to members of Hamas' militant wing, Palestinian sources said. Two were children, WAFA and Palestinian medical sources said.

I think if the focus is mobile you can try setting up a very lightweight page with the latest events (with a cache in front, something that is updated every 1min or maybe 5min should be enough)
They need real time. 5 minutes is not "real time". Twitter is real time. They need to meet their audience where their audience can meet them. Just about every phone nowadays can access Twitter in an immediate and obvious way. Twitter will meet their audience where their audience needs to be met.
Hence, if their time constraint is 5min, fine by them, otherwise the question stands: what is their constraint.
And Twitter is not real time (this is obvious if you ever used it - it is more visible in the mobile version), there's no guarantee that if a tweet was sent by an account A in time T and the timeline of someone who follows A is opened some seconds later that tweet will show up.

A separate incident that was also not in Gaza and not related to Hamas. Somehow no one cares about those facts and Israel can use it for further aggression against a people, most likely hoping to spark further retaliation so they can escalate further.
> not related to Hamas Huh? Take your propaganda elsewhere.
