All The News Anti-Israel Posters Will Not Read Or Discuss 2

Cool, what were their names? So the same people, or their descendants, are reclaiming their land?

Essentially the Houses of Malca, Cohen, Ashkenazi and Orbah.

Yes, of course, Shim'on HaTzadik was Cohen, the land and property
these Ottoman kushans referred to above in the court discussion,
registered to the Jerusalemite and Knesset Yisrael councils.

Remember I was mentioning, how Arab supremacists,
always threaten with the Ottoman land registry,
but never dare reveal it, despite Turkey on
their side?

This is why.

That ducks my question.
 
“To see what is in front of one’s nose,” the British essayist George Orwell famously observed, “needs a constant struggle.” This is particularly true if you’re counting on the Washington Post’s opinion page to provide you with the truth about Israel.

In one of its latest broadsides against the Jewish state, the Post publishedan op-ed by Mairav Zonszein entitled “Israel must choose: withdraw from the occupied territories or grant Palestinians under its control full rights.” Zonszein, a longtime critic of the Jewish state, is currently an analyst for International Crisis Group (ICG).

In her Jan. 7, 2022 Post op-ed, Zonszein asserted that Israel’s president, Isaac Herzog, “offered yet another insulting reminder of Israel’s brutal occupation.” What did Herzog do that Zonszein found so offensive? He gave a speech in Hebron where he talked about the need to denounce “all forms of hatred and violence.” This, the ICG analyst claimed, was “insulting” as it occurred in a place “where systemic violence against Palestinians is blatant.”

Few things could be less true.

While there have been instances of Israelis attacking Palestinians, they are almost always punished by the Israeli government. Indeed, they are illegal. By contrast, instances of Palestinians attacking Israelis do not merit punishment but reward. Indeed, incentives for Palestinians to commit acts of anti-Jewish violence are enshrined in the law of the Palestinian Authority, the entity that rules over the majority of Palestinians, including those in the West Bank (Judea and Samaria).

As Thane Rosenbaum, an essayist and distinguished fellow at the New York University School of Law, noted in an April 28, 2017 Washington Post commentary: Palestinian laws passed in 2004 and amended in 2013 stipulate that convicted terrorists receive monthly “salaries.” Further, cash grants and priority civil-service job placements are offered to those who carry out terror attacks. The 2004 law even specifies that the financial support is for the “fighting sector,” an “integral part of the fabric of Arab Palestinian society.” Further, payments and benefits are predicated, in part, on the length of sentence. So: the greater the crime, the greater the payoff.

Moreover, Palestinian culture often encourages anti-Jewish violence. As the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting and Analysis (CAMERA) has highlighted, official PA media and approved textbooks often praise such attacks. Indeed, the PA has named roads, schools and sports tournaments after terrorists who were slain while carrying out terrorist attacks. The Authority even awards honorary degrees to terrorists.

Daoud Omar Daoud writes in Ammon News(Amman, Jordan) about how the apartheid accusation has been going.

One side comment reveals the actual hope of many in the Arab world:


Describing Israel as an "apartheid regime" carries within it political connotations and a project for solving the Palestinian issue. And if this system is dismantled, the rule will pass to the people of Palestine. Yet the Jewish settlers will remain where they are, which will be a disappointment for everyone who longs to see Palestine return completely to its owners.
They don't hate Jews because of Israel. They hate Israel because of Jews.

Times of Israel last week commendably clarified multiple reports which had stated as fact that residents of the the small Palestinian hamlet of Khan Al-Ahmar east of Jerusalem have lived there since the 1950s. In fact, aerial photographs reveal that the site was desolate in those times, with settlement beginning in the 1980s and growing in earnest within the last 15 years.

The Jan. 26 article, “Israel to destroy Khan Al-Ahmar hamlet, rebuild it 300 meters away,” many previous ToI stories (for example, see here, here and here), had erroneously report that Khan Al-Ahmar was settled in the 1950s. The articles state that the villagers “have lived at the site, then controlled by Jordan, since the 1950s, after the state evicted them from their Negev homes.”

Regavim’s aerial photographs of the site over several decades reveal this was not the case. Indeed, a photograph of the site in 1967 shows that Khan Al Ahmar was virtually empty. It appears that there were approximately four or five buildings there in 1980. By 1999, there were approximately up to two dozen structures at the site. The aerial images reveal that the encampment grew significantly between 2006 and 2012. (All images are available in the previous hyperlink.)

While residents now claim residency since the 1950s, the photographic evidence does not support this claim.

Throughout the month of January 2022, eighteen written or filmed reports relating to Israel and/or the Palestinians appeared on the BBC News website’s ‘Middle East’ page, some of which were also published on other pages and four of which were carried over from the previous month.

One report concerned an incident related to a security operation.

The attack, which took place on January 28, 2022, was particularly brutal. CMEP’s press statement had this to say:

CMEP staff met with Daoud and family members at the hospital after the incident. Daoud suffered head wounds and had surgery including several stitches. Daoud and Daher’s bodies were significantly bruised and with lacerations. Neither had broken bones, and neither had a concussion. They are expected to be discharged from Bethlehem Hospital today.
It is believed –though not yet confirmed– the attack was perpetrated by Palestinian residents of the neighboring village. CMEP affirms the rights of the Nassar Family to their land and condemns all forms of violence including threats and actions from both Palestinians and neighboring settlement communities. CMEP’s executive director says: “We are devastated to hear the news of the attack on Daoud and Daher. The Nassar family embodies holistic peacebuilding in profound ways, even suffering physical threats to their own lives and safety. Over and over again they seek peace with their neighbors despite decades of demolitions, threats, and attacks. CMEP and I personally are doing everything we can to keep the US government informed and to call on the Palestinian Authority to enact the rule of law in response to the perpetrators of this vicious attack.”
Other reports indicate the attackers came from the Arab village of Nahaleen.

In ICN’s version, the sentence declaring that the attack was likely perpetrated by Palestinian residents of a neighboring village has been omitted. Despite this omission, ICN has the nerve to cite CMEP as its source for the information.

Why did ICN omit this fact?

ICN must do a follow-up by citing other stories that confirm the attack was perpetrated by the farm’s Arab neighbors and that numerous organizations have called on the Palestinian Authority to investigate the attack and bring the perpetrators to justice.

If ICN is going to delete crucial information from a press release that is readily available on the internet, what does that say about their coverage of other subjects where the information is harder to verify?

Inexplicably rebranding as “protests” a series of violent Palestinian riots in the West Bank; “contextualizing” the stabbing of an Israeli by tacitly offering a rationale for the attack in the headline; quoting an Islamic charity that has been dogged by accusations of antisemitism about the recent Texas synagogue attack; and uncritically parroting a palpably untrue narrative about an alleged Israeli campaign to force Palestinians out of a Jerusalem neighborhood.

These are a handful of examples of journalistic blunders Reuters has made in its reportage on Israel and, more generally, about Jews over just the last two months.

They are all the more egregious given that Reuters is one of the largest news agencies in the world, with more than 2,000 clients spread across 128 countries.

Just this week, HonestReporting questioned whether Reuters has a habit of associating with individuals who have casually disseminated disinformation about the Jewish state, including the agency’s Henriette Chacar.

Chacar has, among other slanderous remarks, accused Israel of “apartheid,” “ethnic cleansing” and “Jewish supremacy.”

We also pointed to how the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism (RISJ), which receives its core funding from the charitable arm of the wire service, the Thomson Reuters Foundation, had awarded Palestinian writer Haya Abushkhaidem a place in its 2022 Journalist Fellow Programme, which is based at the UK’s prestigious Oxford University.

Like Chacar, Abushkhaidem has promoted the demonstrably false claim that Israel is upholding a system of apartheid, as well as “lynching” Palestinians.

In one particularly disturbing Instagram post, Abushkhaidem uploaded a picture celebrating Palestinian “women for freedom” that included images of terrorists Leila Khaled and Dalal Mughrabi.

Interestingly, the 14-strong cohort of 2022 fellows for RISJ’s Hilary Term (spring) includes another Palestinian journalist, Hiba M. Yazbek, who is a former news editor at the Israeli newspaper Haaretz and has contributed to reports in The New York Times.

Yazbek also appears to hold views that call into question her ability to be objective and accurately report on Israel, such as her claim that she is living under a “mental occupation,” in addition to her assertion that Palestinians are a “minority in [their] own land,” which seemingly indicates opposition to Jewish self-determination in any territory between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea.
