The Press Lies about What's Happening between Israel and Gaza
(New York Post) Liel Leibovitz - To hear most of the Western media tell it, war's afoot in the Middle East, fueled once again by Israel's unquenchable belligerence. "Israel struck the Gaza Strip again Monday," began the Washington Post's report. Not often or ever mentioned is the inconvenient fact that the Palestinians, not Israel, began the current round of violence. As of Monday, Hamas and other Palestinian terror groups have hurled 3,313 rockets at Israel. What we're seeing is the deliberate, methodical, and cynical weaponizing of the press as a tool of political warfare. This isn't skewed reporting; this is full-on propaganda, the goal of which is to deny Israel the right to defend itself against murderous attacks.
