The Israeli/Hamas Coverage
I've been in Israel. I was there this past June, and there is no populace that is more "in tune" with making peace! TO THEIR OWN DETRIMENT, for Heaven's sake! They have given up and fired all of their "hard nosed" leadership! Stop telling them to lay down their arms! They have been bombed constantly since the so-called "cease fire" began, and they are just now doing something about the terrorists that are Hamas, go look up their own stated "purpose"! Don't tell me it's because they are so impoverished in Palestine, and it is all Israel's fault! Bunk! The Palestinians have been robbed from by first the PLO, and now by Hamas! The only reason they have food, water and power is thanks to infrastructure built by Israel! Don't tell me I don't know what I'm talking about, because I have been there! Arabs live in Israel in peace and prosperity, but Christian Arabs have nearly been driven out of Palestinian held areas, and have barbed wire compounds they have to live in the keep Hamas from using their homes as missile launching sites! Hamas doesn't want Israel to exist, and unless Israel kills all of Hamas, they will never live in peace, and neither will Christian Arabs, or humble law abiding Palestinians!




Yes, most of the media is indeed biased against Israel. I think the tone is better this time though than in the 2006 war against Hezbollah in Lebanon. Hamas also isn't as good with it's propaganda, partially because the nature of this war does not favor them as much as it did Hezbollah.
We've heard the usual nonsense from the EU and UN, but they do this every time.
As you say, it's the Palestinians who have been robbed by Hamas and Fatah. Paradoxically, it's in the interests of the Palestinian people that Israel win this one.
