Granted, it’s not quite the flying pig moment like this was – after all, it appears in a report that still manages to get in a few sneaky jabs and uppercuts against Israel – but still.
NABLUS, West Bank — The brother of the dead man sat in a plastic chair, smoking cigarettes and drinking coffee as mourners approached to pay respects. On the wall was a poster of the slain man, the latest Palestinian to meet an untimely, violent end.
But this man, Ahmed Halawa, was not killed in a clash with the hated Israeli military. A Palestinian police officer accused of plotting the murder of two other officers, Mr. Halawa was beaten to death while in the custody of Palestinian security forces.
“We’re living under Israeli occupation,” said the brother, Abdullah Halawa, “but to be honest with you we’ve never seen anything like this from the Israeli soldiers.”
And it’s not just the New York times. Al Jizz’s AJ+ recently posted this video slamming the PA and Hamas.
