A recent Haaretz editorial claimed, “Israel Is Losing Its Humanity in Gaza,” but this ignores the brutal history of the Zionist colonization of Palestine, of which the Gaza genocide is just the latest chapter.
Israeli Justice Minister Yariv Levin is demanding a 20-year prison sentence for citizens who call for sanctions against Israeli leaders and military personnel.
Haaretz is widely considered Israel’s leading liberal news source, but it has published and promoted some of the most harmful propaganda in support of Israel’s genocide in Gaza.
Eitay Mack’s Haaretz article “Israel Is Not Committing Genocide in Gaza” ignores the genocidal clarity of Israeli leaders and serves as a cherry-picked broadside against the fashionable bogeyman of “the global left.”
The proposed U.S.-Saudi Arabia-Israel deal will almost certainly fail. Then, the U.S. mainstream media will blame the Palestinians.
The New York Times is uncritically promoting the Biden administration’s ill-fated efforts to promote Saudi-Israeli normalization while the rest of the U.S. media rightly ignore it.
The New York Times coverage of the latest crisis in occupied Palestine is so distorted and so biased that it must have been deliberate.
The U.S. media has missed one key part of the anti-Netanyahu protest story: the shockingly different ways Israeli police and military treat Jewish and Palestinian protests.
Itamar Ben-Gvir, the Jewish supremacist who serves as police minister in the new Jewish supremacist government of Israel, today made a provocative visit to the “Temple Mount” — the Haram al-Sharif in Jerusalem — that ought to alarm the world. Some Jewish Israeli extremists, including some in Ben-Gvir’s camp, actually want to destroy the Al-Aqsa mosque and the Dome of the Rock shrine. These extremist views are not typically represented in the western media.
Racist rightwinger Itamar Ben-Gvir gets the security portfolio in Netanyahu’s next government and promises to visit the Al-Aqsa mosque in a provocation to Palestinians reminiscent of Ariel Sharon’s deadly visit there in 2000. But this is not news for the New York Times, which blinds its readers to the frightening developments in Israel.
