404 Journalism; An anti-Semitic press lies to destroy Israel

 How the 'octopus' became a symbol of anti-semitism and landed Greta Thunberg in trouble - Times of India (indiatimes.com)

The NY Times and MSNBC: joined at the hip. TD

"Last week, Palestinians bombed the parking lot of al-Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza, which is run by the Episcopal Church in Jerusalem. Christians founded the hospital in 1882. While press reports claim it was an errant missile, Palestinians blamed Israel too harshly and too quickly to be anything but another deliberate sacrifice of Palestinians to the Palestinian god of war.

"That the hospital itself was spared showed unusual restraint on the part of Palestinians, who generally have no problem killing their own women and children. Perhaps they had not had time to move whatever war materiel they stored inside the facility. The horror was meant to keep Israel from full retaliation for Palestinian war crimes. Terrorism works because, after 50 years of terrorizing Israel, Palestinians are still there as Israel cares more about world opinion than its own safety.

"The English-speaking press gladly accommodates Palestinian terrorism because the press now sees itself as an academic enterprise rather than a trade. Master’s degrees in journalism now dominate the hiring at newspapers. Newspapers prefer degrees from prestigious schools, which always made me smirk because if you have a degree from Harvard, why are you working for peanuts at the Charleston Gazette in West Virginia?

"But that background explains why the press promotes Palestinian terrorism against Israel. American universities are citadels of anti-Semitism. Liberals have bestowed victimhood upon the terrorists. Foolishly, I believe, because they will turn on liberals before liberals have the chance to turn on them. Terrorism is by definition a cut-throat enterprise.

"American journalists blissfully ignore this as they carry the water for Palestinians.

"When Palestinians bombed the parking lot of Christian hospital in Gaza, every single major news outlet in America blamed Israel and said the missile destroyed a hospital." . . .

Blood libel - Wikipedia  "Blood libel or ritual murder libel (also blood accusation)[1][2] is an antisemitic canard[3][4][5] which falsely accuses Jews of murdering Christian boys in order to use their blood in the performance of religious rituals.[1][2][6] Echoing very old myths of

secret cultic practices in many prehistoric societies, the claim, as i
t is leveled against Jews, was rarely attested to in antiquity. According to Tertullian, it originally emerged in late antiquity as an accusation made against members of the early Christian community of the Roman Empire.[7] Once this accusation had been dismissed, it was revived a millennium later as a Christian slander against Jews in the medieval period." . . .

Useful Idiot
Useful Idiot Greta Thunberg Promotes the Blood Libel – PJ Media   . . ."Schools that would never allow the KKK or Nazis now embrace the “pro-Palestinian” or “anti-Israel” hate groups of students who are really just useful idiots supporting a Marxist agenda that relies on anti-Semitism to grow its power. Ironically, many of the members of these blood-libel groups on campuses are themselves part of a demographic like women and LGBT or mentally ill individuals who would be persecuted and killed by Hamas and its allies.

"Take, for example, possibly the biggest useful idiot in the world forum today: Greta Thunberg. The Islamo-Nazis of Hamas would kill her in a moment simply because she is an emotional wreck with OCD and Asperger’s syndrome. Yet she promotes their goals and their anti-Semitism. Thunberg supports Hamas and its goals, not even being cognizant that if she had been in Israel on October 7, she would have been an ideal target for them to kidnap, rape, and kill." . . .

Here Are Obama's 'Thoughts on Israel and Hamas.' Just Wait Until You Get to the End.

 Here Are Obama's 'Thoughts on Israel and Hamas.' Just Wait Until You Get to the End. (townhall.com)

"You can decide and debate this in the comments section below. Former President Barack Obama has another lengthy post about his “thoughts” on the Israel-Hamas war. It’s a tortured thought exercise that will inevitably leave all parties dissatisfied. Obama voices his support for Israel, the safety of its people, and its right to exist, which is anathema to the legions of far-left, pro-Hamas supporters we’ve seen come out of the bushes in the past two weeks. These folks weren’t clamoring for a two-state solution; they wanted Israel destroyed, along with its people. 

"On the flip side, Obama insinuates that Israeli forces might be induced to commit war crimes with their pending ground invasion of Gaza following Hamas’ vicious and genocidal terrorist attack on October 7. Obama goes to great lengths to be fair in this post, which only helps Hamas. Civilian casualties should be minimized and avoided, but it's a tragic part of war. People are going to die, lots of them. 

"With a terrorist organization like Hamas, their life’s blood, as with any insurgency, is with the people who support them." . . .

"You can see why Netanyahu never trusted this guy. Israel doesn’t target civilians; Hamas does. Israel has warned civilians for days to vacate areas that will become war zones. And for all the Arab nations’ support for Palestinians, none of them want these people around either. We might as well have Hamas propaganda on this list, which The New York Times ran with over the Gaza hospital story, which was fake news. ' . . .

 

 Audio is put up on screen: A Hamas terrorist calls his father: "Father, I killed 10 Jews! Check your WhatsApp! I sent you the photos! Father, I killed 10 Jews! I killed 10 Jews with my bare hands. check your WhatsApp. Father, be proud of me!"

Hamas Happily Filmed Their Slaughter of Innocents. So Israel Showed It All to Journalists. (townhall.com)  "That this heinous screening was even necessary is a testament to the virulence of the anti-Israel propaganda machine.  Within hours of the October 7 massacre, 'pro-Palestine' forces were openly justifying and celebrating the Jew butchery.  Such depravity has continued for weeks, with another anti-Semitic tactic being folded into the mix: Holocaust-denial-style 'questioning' of whether the horrors really even took place.  The Israelis had made it up, some started to argue.  The Israelis had exaggerated the specifics, others said, openly doubting whether women had been raped, and asserting that babies had not been beheaded.  So widespread was this attempted white-washing -- an obvious effort to tamp down public sympathy for Israel, and to weaken support for the Jewish state's military response -- that many people now believe the baby decapitation detail is a 'debunked myth.'  In fact, it's a gut-wrenching reality:

 "Many bodies, including those of babies, are without heads."  Evil, beyond all imagination.  "Asked if they were decapitated," Dr. Chen Kugel, the head of Israel's National Center of Forensic Medicine (Abu Kabir) in Tel Aviv, "answered yes."  More examples, which unfortunately must be documented and shared, in light of the history revisionism that's already underway:" . . .

. . ."Which brings us to the screening.  Hamas was proud of their subhuman atrocities.  They filmed them.  And Israel simply showed their enemies' own footage to international journalists:"


. . ."Among other things, they were ordered to behead Israelis.  Directly from one of the terrorists.  Here is how a 'journalist' at a left-wing publication tied himself into knots over the forensic evidence provided, apparently backtracking under pressure to qualify his characterization of the obvious truth:. . .

Last night, I asserted that this report indicated that babies were beheaded. This was an overstatement. I should have said that the report established that babies were found headless, a fact that lends plausibility to claims of beheading, but which does not prove them.
Is this guy with Ali Velshi and MSNBC?
"The report established that babies were found headless, a fact that lends plausibility to claims of beheading."  Do these people hear themselves?  Just as the anti-Israel fanatics refuse to believe Hamas beheaded babies, they also insisted that Israel 'bombed a hospital in Gaza,' killing hundreds. Evidence proving that the damage near a hospital was caused by a misfired rocket shot at Israel by Palestinian terrorists was established fairly quickly, and confirmed by US officials.

FLASHBACK: Leaked Audio Reveals Election Denier Hillary Clinton Suggests Rigging Palestine Election in 2006

In the audio, Clinton is heard saying, “I do not think we should have pushed for an election in the Palestinian territories. I think that was a big mistake. And if we were going to push for an election, then we should have made sure that we did something to determine who was going to win.”

 The Gateway Pundit | by Jim Hᴏft   "On October 28, 2016, the New York Observer, owned by former President Donald Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, released a leaked audio clip from back in 2006 in which Hillary Clinton proposed rigging a foreign election to achieve the desired outcome that she wanted.

"The media did not report on the audio clip when it was released in 2016 because it would have been extremely damaging to then-presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

"The Gateway Pundit was one of the few news outlets in 2016 that covered this explosive report.

"The audio, which is making rounds again on various news platforms due to the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict, captured Hillary Clinton, during her tenure as a U.S. Senator, discussing the idea of rigging the Palestinian elections to ensure the “right” outcome." . . .
