Further proof of the old saying... "The truth hurts"

sinister about the Jewish state of Israel and the Jewish people whose nation-state Israel is. Many of these journalists use their skills of gathering information and presenting it to their readers/listeners/viewers while ensuring their goal is met in their presentation of the "news" and opinion: To spew venom at Israel and by extension at the Jewish people. Obsession, demonization, de-legitimization, lack of proportionality, expectations of Israel and its people to meet standards not expected of others all amount to a cavalier expression of racism, anti-Jewish racism at that. Examples from the English press: The Guardian, the BBC, the Independent and many more. From the French press: AFP, le monde, and by extension the various French media that rely on them. It is time for some soul searching on the part of the foreign press based in Israel. It is very high time their editors abroad do the same since they contribute to this sickness of racism at least as much...!!
35. Journalists' lives have been threatened by the Palestinians,
Aviva Gefen ,   Kibbutz Beit Hashita   (02.27.10)
by Syria, by forces in Lebanon, in Saudi Arabia! How many journalists who keep spewing venom at Israel, its leaders, soldiers and the general public have been threatened? None! But they keep spreading libels, at times blood libels at the Jews of Israel. Does anyone really wonder why? I stopped wondering as it is so clear why! It is the same illness that has affected society for so many centuries, just that journalists permit themselves to exhibit the symptoms under the thinly veil of "professional journalism".
36. I have seen them and they are funny
zionist forever   (02.27.10)
Its Israelis making fun of Israel based in exadurated attitudes some in the west have of the Middle East and Israel. Now I am sure if the adds were showing soldiers shooting arabs in cold blood and going to attack all its neighbors for fun the foreign press anti Israel newspapers like the Telegraph would fall in love with them. Much better represents the foreign view of all Israelis being cold blooded killers who get their kicks out of killing palestinian children than a man with a camel
37. FOREIGN JOURNALISTS NEED STRONG GUIDING HAND..
ABRAHAM ben JACOB ,   CANADA   (03.02.10)
The UK is concerned by Hamas detention of British journalist Paul Martin in Gaza. He was arrested Feb 14 while testifying for A Pal Arab accused of " collaberation " with Israel. Paul Martin was in Gaza to defend his Pal freind. The Gaza Arabs Pals. did not appreciate him there and arrested him. Now , will the Foreign reporters complain against the Pal arabs in Gaza who arrested British reporter ? Maybe the Brits. will complain a bit , maybe a bit, but not too much because of fear that the Arabs would get mad and arrest more Brit. and other foreign reporters. Now if Isreal had detained this Brit. reporter, HELL would have been unleashed by the British and Foreign media against Israel. Maybe Israel should put the same fear in the Brits, and other foreign reporters and then Israel will get more respect. The fear from the Arabs side works for the Arab Pals, so maybe Israel should try the same ?....why not try ?
