re: #30 MagnaniomousCoward

Your very post assumes that it’s the IDF on one side and the activists and the journalists on the other. Somebody will be along to address your links about the IDF, but the point is that the media shouldn’t take sides, and neither have some kind of false neutrality, but always report the truth. Why are these Reuters “mistakes” always dis-favorable to Israel? Are they all dis-favorable to Israel?

HELLO Christopher H, ANY RESPONSE TO THIS POINT?

Even as we discuss the IDF’s truthfulness, isn’t the fact that you’re trying to liken the bias of one of the belligerents with that of Reuters/”the mainstream media” itself an admission that Reuters/”the mainstream media” has an anti-Israeli bias, thus killing your argument before it’s even begun?

You being shown wrong about your examples is only a bonus after that.

An actual argument would have been if you could show the media manipulating to the same degree in favor of Israel. Can you do that?
