Child, Jihad fighter killed in Gaza - More Blood Libel Courtesy of AFP
Exhibit 4,794 of AFP’s duplicity in reporting on events concerning the Arab-Israeli dispute. The AFP headline clearly suggests — IMHO intentionally so — that Israeli fire killed a child and a jihadi in the Gaza Strip today. And anyone skimming headlines could be forgiven for coming to that conclusion in light of the headlines earlier today that Israeli tank fire injured approximately a dozen people.
Then, again, this is AFP, so you have to read past the headlines. And there it is, in the 14th and final paragraph of the article:
And on Wednesday night in Khan Yunes, southern Gaza, a seven-year-old child was killed and two other people were wounded in an explosion apparently set off by accident and which also badly damaged a home, witnesses said.
In other words, the child was killed because Arab militants accidentally detonated explosives that were being created or stored IN A HOME!!!!!! AFP, however, wants its readers to believe that the evil Joos killed a child.
Oh, and by the way, you have to read to the 6th paragraph of AFP’s hit piece to learn that the dead jihadi was killed when his cohorts and he fired mortar shells at Israeli troops who then returned fire.
