Israel/Palestine

Tuesday’s White House press briefing was largely clear-eyed about the horrors caused Friday by Hamas terrorists in Israel with over a dozen Americans dead and nearly two dozen unaccounted for. There were some tough questions from usual corners, but also some predictably pro-Hamas questions standing up for the plight of modern-day Nazis.

On Saturday morning, as MSNBC's Ali Velshi devoted his eponymous show to covering the terrorist attack by Hamas that had already killed hundreds of Israeli civilians, the liberal weekend host joined one of his anti-Israel guests in trying to see moral equivalency in a terrorist attack versus legitimate defensive actions by the Israeli military.

This is as devastating as it sounds.

MSNBC’s Katy Tur and Senior Fellow of American Statecraft Program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, Arthur David Miller got their priorities backwards as they wondered on Tuesday how a two-state solution between Israel and the Palestinians can happen “with the current makeup of the Israeli government.”

After carrying a Tel Aviv press conference Tuesday morning of families of those kidnapped by Hamas terrorists on Saturday, MSNBC’s Morning Joe turned to the indefatigable Bari Weiss of The Free Press and former Obama official/Anti-Defamation League (ADL) head Jonathan Greenblatt for what were emotional reactions imbued with moral clarity about the “barbaric irrationality of terror.” But amid…

On Tuesday, a disturbing trend of misinformation spread around social media asserting that the Hamas terrorists – the same ones who killed women, children, and the elderly, raped women, and abducted those same groups back to Gaza – for some reason wouldn’t behead babies and that any report of such acts were lies. This was the disgusting assertion pushed by LA Times investigative…

Mere hours after Hamas militants began their wholesale slaughter of innocent Israelis on Saturday, the media were already gearing up to excuse the mass murder. And while we certainly have seen some appalling takes from these liberal news networks in the past few days, it’s worth recalling that the media have a long and disturbing record of dismissing Palestinian violence against the Jewish…

Racist decolonizer Sunny Hostin was back on ABC’s The View on Tuesday spewing more anti-Israel hate as they were in the process of defending themselves from Hamas terrorists. She bloviated about how she found Israeli “anger” “terrifying” and asserted they were going to kill the 2.2. million civilians in Gaza. Sprinkling in some ridiculous conspiracy theories, co-host Joy Behar…

A radical pro-Hamas group funded by leftist billionaire George Soros offered a statement of support for the abhorrent, genocidal terrorist attacks on Israel.

On Monday’s CBS Mornings, the A-block ended with co-host Tony Dokoupil showing anger, emotion, and exhaustion at Hamas’s reign of terror attacks Saturday slaughtering hundreds of innocent Israelis as, for those unaware, two of Dokoupil’s four children live in Israel with his ex-wife (and the other two in U.S. with him alongside current wife, MSNBC anchor Katy Tur).

For the Tuesday edition of CBS Mornings, foreign correspondent Imtiaz Tyab did a profile on Hamas and while acknowledging the organization seeks to eliminate Israel, hailed their “sheer determination,” as if they were a scrappy football team, and its leader's “personal” revenge against Israel.’

Having been with CNN for over two decades and a foreign journalist for more than three decades, CNN international diplomatic editor Nic Robertson has seen plenty coveringnatural disasters, terror attacks, and war zones. But on Monday’s The Lead, he was repeatedly on the verge of breaking down in tears describing what he called “callous, cruel, cold-blooded killing” of Israelis and…

MSNBC's Ali Velshi calls Israel's proposed total siege of Gaza, in response to the Hamas attack, a "war crime." He couldn't find those words for Hamas.

Monday night’s NBC Nightly News ran a segment on a legitimate concern many Americans and Israelis had which was: how did Saturday’s terrorist attacks catch the Israeli Intelligence Services and American intelligence communities completely off guard? Sadly, the segment had to include a ludicrous political sideswipe on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu by claiming his judicial…
