Mainstream legacy media and others condemn Israel and the United States for taking sensible, urgent actions to defend themselves and much of the world.
Almost every facet of Palestinian life has been engaged to spread hateful messages against Jews and Israel—including the indoctrination of Palestinian children.
If events can’t be blamed on Israel, they are of no interest.
Rather than condemning Israel, progressives in the West who recoil at “settler colonial projects” should embrace the Jewish state as an example of decolonization.
If we are going to truly combat rising anti-Semitism, it behooves us to publicize and analyze the roots of anti-Semitism in Islam.
A story on children killed during “Operation Guardian of the Walls” was a deliberate attempt to tar the Jewish state with the age-old accusation of “child killers.”
It’s clearly time that American and foreign media commit to telling the whole story when conflicts between Israel and her enemies erupt.
While the media usually likes to think of itself as not being an actual party in the conflict, sometimes the mask slips.
When activists and media create an equivalence between Israel and Hamas, they hide the context—the reality of what Hamas believes and does.
