       Meanwhile, the British press writes fawning love letters to Israel after its terrorist attack yesterday that wounded almost 3,000 people, some 300 of them critically, and killed others (yes, Brown people are people…, there you go, some white folks just learned something new today).“An unleashed Israel is humiliating its enemies” exudes The Telegraph.https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/an-unleashed-israel-is-humiliating-its-enemies/ar-AA1qLo8hYou’d think these bastards would have similarly gushed over the Nazis. Oh, wait, they did…https://www.timesofisrael.com/how-britains-nazi-loving-press-baron-made-the-case-for-hitler/

       @pvonhellermannn @aral Crikey! I expected it from the right wing Telegraph but not this from the 'impartial' BBC?!

       @alien @pvonhellermannn I believe it’s called Western hypocrisy.

       @aral maybe we could use that date as a day of remembrance for all complicated terror attacks?

       @aral Who is worse? " The previously sporadic fighting escalated on 8 October 2023 - the day after the unprecedented attack on Israel by Hamas gunmen from Gaza - when Hezbollah fired at Israeli positions, in solidarity with the Palestinians.Since then, the group has launched more than 8,000 rockets at northern Israel and Israeli positions on the Golan Heights, fired anti-tank missiles at armoured vehicles, and attacked military targets with explosive drones "https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-67307858

       @aral another general trend is for media to cover this with the same fascination and enthusiasm they cover tech innovation in general.Excited journalist: "How did Israel do it?"Media pundit: "Very sophisticated/complex (...)"I still haven't seen the journalists ask an expert "is this legal/terror/a war crime" etc.But sure, indiscriminately make 3,000 people's personal devices explode... wonder what people would think if Russia did that in Europe. Not even Russia is this barbaric.

       @aral the irony was last week a newspaper was reporting that the BBC was being too biased against Israel according to its impartiality guidelines - an aggressor nation that had committed a ridiculous number of war crimes. Next we'll be told that Russia's invasion of Ukraine is just a counter-terrorism operation as well.
