Yes, pointing out that a journalist was shelled by the IDF is akin to the propagandizing of the Nazi Party.

Granted, the title of this thread seems misleading. That does not change the fact that misdeeds of the IDF, indeed any critical assessment of Israel, gets short shrift in the US media.

this is the same silly bullshit that has been going on in the Middle East since the dawn of civilization.

You know why cameramen and journalists take those dangerous jobs? Because they pay really well. They pay really well because they are fucking dangerous, you might get killed. They know that.

After reading pages and pages of Bob's writing, this sentence is the first thing I've seen on this board that's made me question my assessment of Israel.

Salut.

Take note Bob, sometimes less is more.
