Always, the anti-Israel bias

Just in case you thought the AP might be reforming: Of course not. Look what it reports as the Palestinian preconditions to peace talks with Israel:

Israeli media reported that Israel had called for renewed peace talks without preconditions. Palestinians are demanding that Israel cease settlement construction in the West Bank and east Jerusalem, areas they claim as part of their future state, before talks can begin.

Israel has frequently called for peace talks to resume. Israel says settlements should be resolved along with other core issues through negotiations.

The communication by letter demonstrates how thoroughly negotiations to create an independent Palestinian state have fallen apart. The last effort was four months ago, but preliminary meetings between Israeli and Palestinian officials in the Jordanian capital Amman stalled.

Really? A settlement freeze? That’s it?

No.

The letter says Israel must freeze all settlement construction and accept its pre-1967 war boundaries as the basis for the borders of a future Palestine, with mutually agreed upon modifications, according to drafts of the document obtained by The Associated Press.

Please note that the AP cannot so much as dig into its own files to prevent the passing of misinformation. But then, that would ruin the narrative. The narrative says that the Palestinians want to talk peace, but the stubborn Israelis do not. The narrative says that the Palestinians want reasonable preconditions, but the stubborn Israelis won’t agree to even stop building on “Palestinian land”.

Of course the AP can’t report the truth. Because the truth goes against the narrative.
