The AP continues its anti-Israel spin. Note the headline and remember, when palestinians are doing the killing, Israelis “die.” Let’s note the differences in verbs and adjectives, shall we?
Israeli Forces Kill Palestinian Fugitives
JERUSALEM (AP) – Israeli troops raided a West Bank refugee camp Wednesday, killing a wanted Palestinian militant and forcing two others to surrender, the army said.The raid came a day after Israeli police thwarted a suicide attack, chasing down the would-be bomber in a high-speed pursuit along one of Israel’s major highways. Police said the bomber planned to blow himself up in central Israel days before Israel’s March 28 elections.
And then there’s this quote from perennial whiny girl, Saab Erekat:
Saeb Erekat, the Palestinian legislator for Jericho, condemned the killing, saying that Israeli raids and border closures were making life intolerable for the people of Jericho.
“This is part of an open war against the Palestinians,” he said.
Gee. An open war against the pals. Would this be why?
On Tuesday, police cars with sirens blazing and backed by helicopters chased down a van along the main Jerusalem-Tel Aviv highway, pulled out the suspected attacker and safely detonated the 15-pound bomb that was concealed in a bag, police said.
The suspected bomber had ties to Islamic Jihad which was responsible for all seven bombing attacks since a yearlong cease-fire took effect last March, police said. Islamic Jihad made no claim of responsibility.
Israeli Defense Minister Shaul Mofaz told the Israeli Ynet Web site that Iran was pushing Islamic Jihad to carry out an attack before Israel’s election next week.
“We know that Iran transferred in the last month $1.8 million to the Islamic Jihad organization in order to carry out terrorist attacks against Israel,” he said, without elaborating.
All those subtle things add up to one great big anti-Israel bias in the AP. But they’re unbiased. Really. It’s not like they use terrorist terms when describing Hamas or anything like that, right?
Wrong.
They did things in the wrong order. If he wanted to commit suicide so much, they should have first detonated the bomab and then pulled him out.
It is almost comical to listen to them try and explain their objectivity.
Another classic piece of crap from Ravi Nessman.
Or should I say pieces of crap, considering Ravi has a hard time with plurals.
One Islamic Jihad scumbag got killed. That’s a singular. Not a plural as in the title of the story.
