Random AP bias post

Near the very end of an AP article about Israeli response to the latest terrorist attack, we have these paragraphs:

In July, British undercover officers fatally shot a Brazilian electrician in the head in the London Underground, suspecting the young man, who was wearing a bulky coat, was a suicide attacker. The shooting occurred a day after four failed attempts to bomb London’s transport system, and two weeks after four bombers killed 52 bus and subway passengers.

Israeli security forces have also mistakenly identified people as militants, with deadly results. Several years ago, an Israeli soldier shot and wounded a deaf Israeli bus passenger he suspected was a Palestinian suicide bomber.

Here’s my obligatory hair-pulling moment: SHOT AND WOUNDED IS NOT A “DEADLY RESULT.”

GodDAMN the AP anti-Israel bias.

I am going to open up a new category specifically for them, and retrofit all these posts into it.

    A couple of years ago a car full of Palestinian Arabs shot and killed, in a drive-by shooting, a jogger in Jerusalem who they said “looked Jewish”. Turned out he was a Christian Arab studying at the Hebrew University. Now I wonder why the AP doesn’t end every story with a comment about how stupid Palestinian terrorists have shot non-Jews thinking they were Jews, with deadly results?

    No, I don’t wonder, really.

    A hellfire enema missile is the best way to stop terrorists. See today in Gaza.
