So Called Defend the Land
I read an article in a major American news paper today. There was a full page advertisement which was a statement that was pro-Israel, listing all the reasons why they have a right to defend themselves.
Palestine flag and her young future
They are spending a lot of money trying to convince the world that they have a right to defend themselves, which no one is disputing.
Furthermore, a journalist in that newspaper had a whole argument about how people who harshly criticize Israel over humanitarian concern for the Palestinians are closet anti-Semites.
The magazine 'Economist' has published many articles which are biased in favor of Israel. So have many other big publications.
Soldier taking away a young boy
Such biased and one sided reporting of so called facts and interpretations completely discredits the entire news media. It has become so bad that their is more truth in the advertisements than there is in the actual news.
Well, just because people are critical of Israel when Israel misbehaves does not make them anti-Semites.
To disagree with a Jew does not make one an anti-Semite.
To label such people like that is dirty, a low blow, and downright despicable.
This type of rhetoric will not win people over to Israel's side, but will anger them and drive them away.
Thank you for reading,
Ben
