Your anti-Israel media bias at work

Packaging nakba
The earliest reference I can find to the term “Nakba” (or “Naqba”) in the New York Times is this article, from Israel’s 50th birthday, a decade ago. So for 50 years, the NYT didn’t see fit to use the term … Continue reading

60th anniversary op-eds

Your unbiased, objective AP take on Hamas terrorism

Assad will not cut ties with Iran
All of those fools who are touting talking to Syria, and giving back the Golan Heights to achieve peace with Syria can stop now. (Oh, they won’t, but they should.) Bashar Assad has said quite clearly that even if he … Continue reading
The hobgoblin of David Ignatius
