I saw this two weeks ago during the midst of the rocket attacks on Israel, but forgot to point it out in a post. What’s wrong with this paragraph?
Last April, Israeli killed 11 Palestinians, including four civilians, after Palestinian militants fired a rocket that hit a school bus and badly wounded a 16-year-old boy.
Here’s a hint: He died of his injuries a week and a half later. Research? Why would the AP reporter do any research? Hell, even Wikipedia has the facts right. But for the AP, it’s too hard to remember things like murdered Israelis when there are Palestinian terrorists dying all over the place.
Anti-Israel media bias? No, there is none. None at all.
The boy’s name was Daniel Viflic, something else that the AP rarely does–name the Israeli victims of terror.
So. Whitewashing? Lying? Or an utter lack of research/knowledge by the AP writers and editors? You decide.
Israel killed eleven people, including four civilians? If it was one attack, then they were attacking a militant site and the militants allowed four civilians to remain at risk of their lives. Israel therefore is to blame for not developing smarter weapons.
