Since Monday, more than fifty Palestinians have been killed and another 450 wounded because of Israel’s ongoing assault on the Gaza Strip.
As we all know, mainstream media outlets are always trying to project Israel as the victim, defending its people against irrational Palestinian rocket fire.
We cannot equate the killing and maiming of dozens of innocent Palestinians with scared Israelis seeking shelter from air rockets that rarely cause damage. But that has not stopped media outlets from trying, and sometimes plainly lying, to pervert the violence.
Let me give you a recent example; ABC News’ Diane Sawyer misidentifies scenes of the aftermath of Israeli missile strikes in Gaza as destruction caused by Palestinian rocket fire. You do not believe me? See it yourself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-m4PlW-KgI.
Well, as Sawyer segues into the segment, she says, “We take you overseas now to the rockets raining down on Israel today as Israel tried to shoot them out of the sky.” Next to her is video footage that is not of Israelis or even Israel, but of Israeli airstrikes on Gaza.
Sawyer then incorrectly continued with describing an image of a Palestinian family, who are desperately trying to gather belongings in the smoke of a missile-hit home in Gaza, as “an Israeli family trying to salvage what they can.”
After that, Sawyer describes an image of a Palestinian woman surrounded by destroyed homes as “one woman standing speechless among the ruins,” which implicates that she is Israeli.
Sawyer’s misreporting reflects either a deliberate lie by ABC News or wilful ignorance, so severe that Palestinian death and misery is invisible even when it is staring ABC producers right in the face.
I’m not pro Israeli or Palestinian but I do not feel bad if Israel defends itself against the rocket attacks. Just becasue Hamas isn’t able to land their attacks and Israel had the abality to land theirs. Maybe Hamas needs to think twice about poking a stick in a hornets nest.
Long live the Palestinian resistance!
Look Beerad, I’M British not Arab. The Israelis are mad. They are paranoid idiots. They needs to be assesses by Psychiatrics, specially the Israeli politicians. Killing Civilians with Rocket attacks is Illegals in International law. Wake up and accept the truth.
I don’t believe he was so much as saying you were lying. Just that it is a two sided street for the Palestinians and the Israelis. I find it hard to choose a side in a war I don’t understand. And I find it hard to understand because the lies the news feeds me.
Absolutely Agree. Most of America goes by what they hear in the Government Controlled Media (They have been busted countless times lying, stretching and bastardizing the truth). I cant form much of an opinion because personally I do not trust really any of them. I can only believe what I am told by penpals or relatives that are actually in th situation.
You can find the truth in the internet.
But really its not really difficult to understand.
see who is dying and who is not.
the only truth you can find is:
WE ARE ALL MURDERES
so lets continue our stupid little lifes
Go to bed.
i agree Beerad. Countless times Israel has taken a beating and when Israel finally decides to fight back its horrible and there the bad guys. I’m for Israel because they are defending there home and land. Its like me being punched by someone countless times with a cop watching me, but when i swing back i get arrested and put to life in prison.
That’s not exactly correct, although I like your setup. A more correct analogy would be if you were to get punched by someone countless times, and then to retaliate you murder the person’s entire family and all of their friends. Then the police imprison the person who punched you in the first place.
Fuck you.
soo how about all the Israeli citizens who where hurt and kill in the past before all this?
you stupid.
aha AHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA
the land they are defending is Palestinian.
dont go around and say things like that when people are dying in so large numbers. its hubris.
Red THis stupid!

im not pro hamas but i do not feel bad if Gaza defends itself after israel beginns with the attacks
the zivillians on gaza are not hamas, and israel is strictly willing to kill children and even unborn muslims
Watch Occupation 101:Voices of the Silenced Majority, explains the history of the conflict. Israel has been trying to cleanse the whole region of the Palestinians for decades and with the help of the US. Israel does and should, defend itself against attacks by Hamas who care more about the destruction of Israel that the rebuilding of the land of their people but Israel have treated the Palestinian people badly and force them to live in ghettos in abject poverty so it’s hardly surpirsing that they have retaliated.
Palestine has no army, no navy, and no air force.
The last figures I heard suggest that around 20 Israelis are either dead or injured but there’s more than 100 Palestinians dead, another 600 severely injured and around 300 homes have been destroyed in the process.
That sound like a fair fight to you?

I don’t know that there’s really any such thing as fairness in war.. But seeing the pictures of the injured and murdered children breaks my heart into a hundred pieces. There’s got to be another way, a better way! As long as both parties are willing and committed to finding it. But it looks as though they’re not.
Not Arab, not Jewish, not pro-Israel or anything, but in response to the Egyptian Ceasefire, Hamas did state that they will not accept it, mean while Israel did accept the terms of the ceasefire and than stopped their attacks for over an hour giving Hamas time to reconsider while Hamas fired over 50 rockets into Israel.
Yes the fact that Israel is better armed and actually killing Palestinians is not fair, and yes Israel is committing war crimes by attacking civilian areas, but that is only because the militant wing of Hamas is hiding and using the civilians as a shield. That itself is a war crime as are the rockets that Hamas are aiming at sections of Israel such as Tel Aviv.
At the very least, Israel was willing to consider the ceasefire and attempt peace talks. Hamas on the other hand just stated their organizations motto which is “Fight the Jews until there are no Jews alive.”
Don’t know where you get your information from, but the Hamas did not state their “Motto” – they said the ceasefire did not reach them, and they can’t accept terms of something, they are not even considered to take part in.
Let me set you straight on the “ceasefire ” that was proposed by the Egyption government. Firstly Hamas, who are the democratically elected government in Gaza, were not invited to talks or party to any agreement. Secondly the government in Egypt was put in place by a military coup sponsored by western powers.They used violence to overthrow the first democratically elected government that Egypt has had. They are allies of Zionism and enemies of Palestine. Thirdly the “ceasefire proposal” did not include an end to the military blockade of Gaza,that effectively makes it a Prison.Much like the Jewish ghettos created by the Nazis.
Any proposal for a ceasefire that does not include an end to the military blockade equates to a surrender. The Palestinian people should never accept surrendering to such an evil regime. My heart goes out to all my Palestinian brothers and sisters in their fight for freedom. Make no mistake,they are fighting for all of humanity!
When they Palestinian terrorists use children and civilians as human shields you’ll end up with more casualties.
who you talk idiot see real

Im a new Zealander looking from the outside In.. wow how misleading can a reporter be.. Read this book “Generals Son” by Miko Pelet see the truth thru Jewish eyes… To me it looks like ethinic cleansing… The same thing that jews.. O how they forget…:-((
Zionism will always produce war and oppression because it was created and continues to be orchestrated by the most evil people in the world. It is not representative of the Jewish people, many of whom oppose it. It represents the fascist warmongers who are intent on dominating the world under a totalitarian regime.This is the ultimate goal of these people and they intend to realise it through the instigation of war!!!!
Wars are always won by the side with the bigger gun. Wether they are right or they are wrong.
We may not like that fact but that is true about war. The fact that Diane Sawyer said all that, goes to show you the media cannot be trusted…at all.
This war won’t end before one side have killed the other.
This is why I stopped watching Big News outlets all together. I get all my News from ALT sites. Sometimes I have to go to several to get the whole story, but to me thats a hell of a lot better than someone straight lying to me face.
War, what is it good for? Absolutley NOTHING (for humanity) LOTS (for the Military Industrial Complex and Bankers)…….
Stop, look! Kids are DYING, over 500,000 children were murdered during IRAQ ATTACKS by the USA UK..
Enough, they certainly did not do that in MY name or even in MY interest. My goverment does not represent me. Murdering bunch of meglomaniac puppets!
Tell that to the Palestinian army who are hiding behind there citizens for cover. Israel warned the people about what there going to do.so it was there choice to stay or not. Israel has been attacked for countless years and there women and children been killed also. But when they fight back its a crime.
you idiot the palestine not attack first is ISRAEL!FACT READ YOUR HEAD IS EMPTY!

Why can’t we just get along? Will no-one learn after centuries of fighting an eye for an eye makes a world full of BLIND people??! Both need to cease and end it NOW!
Just more evidence that if you leave the world to the few, they will ruin it for the many in search of more power, no matter how much they have.

Whilst open and honest debate is the true way to resolution of miss conceptions, racism and belief structures based on misinformation.
The point is…. Babies who have not even been corrupted by there nations rhetoric are being murdered..
Perhaps if we give these so called world leaders a stick with nails let them smash the brains out of several thousand babies then show the video to the world, the world may actually wake up and see this shit (Iraq, Iran, Gaza who cares)…….
There is only one race, the human race and it is about time we realised that and got along!!!!
I have no religious beliefs…. Perhaps that is one reason I can truly see all this for what it is….
Systamatic Murder
Its disgusting how the news would pervert something so serious and crucial, I wouldn’t be apposed to anon going after ABC to spread the truth in the matter.
Is usually a laptop or computer science degree any superior for pc forensics?
You are my inhalation , I possess few blogs and sometimes run out from to post .
Join the list. It’s been going on since NEWS was created.
