Selective reporting cannot disguise the fact.

 Just because the story is not reported, it does not mean that the events did not happen.   A  child, wounded in a strike on a U.N. school in Beit Hanoun    The government propaganda officers (P O's) who sit permanently on the editorial boards of our newspapers, were very busy yesterday pushing the official line, or perhaps the lack of it, to ensure that today’s editions contain predominately “safe” stories. A glance across the front pages of our national daily's reveal the extent to which the sanitisation of news has reached new levels of “subtlety” which the P O's hope and believe will satisfy the readers and divert their attention, at least for a short period. For example, the Daily Mirror leads with a “story” about Vladimir Putin's girlfriend, The Sun has more about Peaches Geldorf, the Star continues its obsession with “Big Brother”, in the Express the front page is again dominated by the British weather, while the Times and the Telegra...

This is against a background of the most vicious, indiscriminate and constant bombardment and killing of civilians in the area, currently in excess of 500 killed and more than 100 of those children. I have never witnessed, in all the history of Israeli incursions into Gaza, such...

"It’s not Hamas who is ordering us in this, it’s the Israelis.” Abdullah al-Daweish: Resident of Gaza,

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/israelgaza-conflict-the-myth-of-hamass-human-shield-9619810.html   The myth of Hamas’s human shields      No matter what, Netanyahu, Regev,Lt. Col Peter Lerne and the rest will continue to trot out the well worn lie (along with all the other lies) about the "Hamas human shield". Sadly there are those who still believe the Israeli propaganda, particularly when it is echoed by the Americans and repeated by Hague,Cameron,Hammond and other UK government sources (who will repeat, parrot fashion,everything that the Americans say)

Israel targets hospitals in their campaign of hatred against the Palestinians in Gaza.

Palestinian patients sit in a hallway of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs hospital . Mark Regev claimed on Aljazeera yesterday, that this hospital and other hospitals in Gaza are being used as underground communication centres and storage facilities for Hamas rockets and are therefore legitimate military targets. Mark Regev is a spokesman for Benjamin Netanyahu. The Israeli armed forces are carrying out what is in effect a genocide of Palestinian people, with almost 600 civilians killed in the past 2 weeks (and of which more than 100 were children), which Regev and the others seek to justify with the lies and distortions of, "p...
