More Reuters Propaganda for Palestinian Arabs

Another one-sided story from Reuters, filled with half-truths:
While Israel celebrates its 60th birthday, Palestinian refugees mourn the 1948 Nakba (catastrophe) when they lost their homeland.
Perhaps the word “refused” would be more accurate than “lost”?
Often ignored in Middle East peace talks, they cling to a “right of return”.
Ignored? They have been held up as the major [...]

UNRWA Runs Out of Fuel – Guess Whose Fault It Is?

Once again, the UNRWA in Gaza will have to curtail some of its operations due to a fuel shortage.
Whose fault is it?
AFP writes:
The UN relief agency for Palestinian refugees is to suspend its food aid distribution in Gaza on Monday because of a lack of fuel caused by the Israeli blockade, a spokesman said on [...]

AP Refutes Itself

AP Refutes Itself

AP reports on today’s deployment of PA troops in Jenin:
Hundreds of flag-waving Palestinian troops took up positions in the former militant stronghold of Jenin on Saturday, part of President Mahmoud Abbas’ attempt to assert control over once lawless West Bank towns and encourage an Israeli withdrawal.
The Israeli military and Abbas sharply disagree over whether the [...]

Picture of the Day

Palestinians take part in a play in commemoration of Nakba Day “The Day of Catastrophe” during a rally in Gaza May 1, 2008. Palestinians will mark Nakba on May 15 as a day of mourning for the establishment of Israel after the 1948 Arab-Israeli war which led to the displacement of hundreds of thousands of [...]

AP Still Getting its Facts Wrong

It has been a few hours since Israel determined that the Gaza blast that killed most of a family was the result of a secondary explosion from targeted terrorists outside the house carrying munitions.
AP’s Ibrahim Barzak is now reporting Israel’s side of the story, but very skeptically:
In a statement, the military said explosives carried by [...]

Still Blaming Israel

Despite the fact that the IDF investigated today’s deaths in Gaza and found that the explosion was caused after palestinian terrorists carrying large bags (presumably filled with ammunition) were shot, and despite the fact that AP were aware of this and actually changed their headline and report to reflect this (as I blogged here), they [...]

Rushing to Blame Israel

The mainstream media such as AP is having a field day reporting today’s deaths of 7 palestinians, including children.
Israeli strike kills 7 Palestinians
An Israeli tank shell slammed into a tiny Gaza Strip home Monday during a skirmish with gunmen, killing a Palestinian woman and four of her children as they prepared to sit down [...]

Reuters: Hamas Poster Boy

Reuters: Hamas Poster Boy

Yet more Reuters bias:*

A Palestinian man takes down an anti-Israel Hamas poster after a rally in Gaza, March 4, 2008. Israel dismissed on Friday a Hamas proposal for a six-month Gaza Strip truce during which an embargo on the territory would be lifted, saying the Palestinian Islamists wanted to prepare for more fighting rather than [...]

CNN At It Again

CNN At It Again

If you recall, Hamas terrorists on Saturday blew up two explosives-laden cars at the Kerem Shalom Gaza border crossing, killing themselves and wounding 13 IDF soldiers.
As of the time of this post, the CNN front page is still representing that story with the following headline :

That’s kind of like someone reporting the discovery of one [...]
