Israel/Palestine

Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak is an interesting guy. He is a former IDF chief of staff who, as PM, was prepared to hand Yasser Arafat 97 percent of the West Bank in 2000 only to get the Second Intifada and for his Labor Party to never to hold power again. On Monday’s PBS Amanpour and Company, he fought with the eponymous host on the supposed lack of evidence the IDF has…

On Sunday, Israel released surveillance footage from Al-Shifa Hospital of Hamas dragging hostages into the facility against their will. It also gave CNN’s Oren Liebermann an opportunity to visit the newly discovered tunnels it found on campus, but Liebermann still claimed on Monday’s CNN This Morning that Israel has not met the burden of proof to justify its claims and continued to…

The Mehdi Hasan Show on MSNBC is where all critical thinking and common sense goes to die as evidenced by a Sunday segment where Hasan accused Israel of shifting the goalposts on its narrative of where Hamas’s HQ is because he refused to entertain the simple idea that Hamas’s leadership could’ve fled south in the early days of the fighting.

Ben Shapiro defends Elon Musk against accusations of anti-Semitism, criticizing the media and leftists for politicizing the issue. He contrasts the media's treatment of Musk with their stance on Israel-Hamas conflict, claiming that the media often ignores actual anti-Semitism when it doesn't align with their political narrative. 

This is going to keep happening to American media outlets when they hire local freelancers to cover the Israel-Hamas war. Joseph Wulfsohn at Fox News reported that Marwat Al-Azza, a freelance producer in East Jerusalem for NBC News, was arrested by Israeli authorities Thursday "on suspicion of inciting terrorism and identifying with a terrorist organization."

We are told by our self-proclaimed moral superiors in the media, reliably and quite often, that eliminationist rhetoric is a very threat upon the moral fabric of our democracy, and quite possibly antisemitism-adjacent. But there is as of yet no such outcry given both the eliminationist language used by congressman Dan Goldman and the network that aired such language with no challenge or…

Does journalist Christiane Amanpour truly believe the terror group Hamas is a reliable source of combat information? On the Tuesday edition of Amanpour & Co. (which runs on CNN International and later on tax-funded PBS), Amanpour talked with familiar face Mark Regev, senior adviser to Israel’s prime…

On the Saturday edition of NBC’s Today reporter Erin McLaughlin ran down the list of evidence Israel has provided that Hamas has used the Al-Shifa Hospital for military purposes only to dismisses it as “nothing definitive.” Meanwhile, on CBS Saturday Morning, Imtiaz Tyab did the same thing, labeling the provided as evidence as “frankly underwhelming.”

New York Times columnist and PBS NewsHour Friday weekly news recapper David Brooks claimed he isn't sure progressives know what they are talking about when they chant “from the river to the sea.” Whether Brooks actually has no idea or is playing dumb doesn’t really matter, PBS viewers deserve a better conservative perspective.

Having been off-the-air from covering the Israel-Hamas war for roughly three weeks, CBS foreign correspondent Imtiaz Tyab resurfaced to lead off Friday’s CBS Mornings and, as he had from the onset of the war, played an incredibly reliable role of tool for the terrorist organization trashing Israel’s response to Hamas’s October 7 animalism.

PBS NewsHour anchor Amna Nawaz joined the Friday edition of Jose Diaz-Balart Reports on MSNBC where she misrepresented PBS’s own polling data in order to portray Israel’s war against Hamas as much more polarizing than it actually is.

We have again entered the season of gratitude. You remember gratitude, don’t you? It was what we expressed before we became entitled. Last Saturday was the observance of Veterans Day, during which many thanked those who served in the military and have protected our freedoms. Next week is Thanksgiving when some people will thank God for the many blessings He has bestowed on America, despite our…

On Tuesday’s edition of the PBS News Hour, “special correspondent” Simona Foltyn questioned Gen. Abbas Ibrahim, a former Lebanese intelligence official with close ties to Hezbollah, the Iranian-backed militant group designated as a terrorist group by the United States. Foltyn worked for the virulently anti-Israel outlet Arab news network Al-Jazeera English from 2019 to 2021 (on the…

The Acela Media “media journalist” class are in high dudgeon over supposed editorial shifts at Univision. The network’s report on the arrest of the man suspected in the death of pro-Israel protester Paul Kessler stands as proof evident that they know nothing.
