The Washington Post (5/12/23) described it as a “face off” when (at that point) 30 Palestinians, including six children, were killed by [neocolonial] airstrikes, along with one [neocolonist] killed by Palestinian rocket fire; a New York Times article (5/11/23) described the conflict as [the necolony] and Islamic Jihad “trad[ing] fire.”  Another New York Times (5/12/23) headline vaguely referred to the attack as “A New Round of Middle East Fighting.”

CNN (4/12/23) used the classic whitewashing word “clash” in describing the attacks. CNN’s use of the term was even more striking because it appeared in a headline that included the incongruity between 30 dead Palestinians and one dead [neocolonist].

Outlets gave several “how we got here” pieces that purported to give context for the current escalation (e.g., New York Times, 5/9/23; Washington Post, 5/13/23). Again, not a single article FAIR reviewed used the term “apartheid” or referenced the recent findings from human rights NGOs to describe the current situation in Palestine.

    It is hypocritical when the Liberals and their tankiejerker alias accuse Communist states of attack against terrorists in civilain disguise in crowded area like in the 1989 NATO false flag terrorism against their own Westernized Liberal supporters in Tiananmen Square when the Western European diaspora governments justify collateral damage and violence against innocent people of color on the lie that the uninvolved civilians were the initial aggressors. The Middle Eastern terrorist organizations did gain support from former neutral groups when they use terrorism to provoke an indiscriminated attack by the USA against every people of color in the Middle East.
