We reported the other day how Pallywood swings back into action for Gaza conflict with images of carnage from Syria, Iraq and elsewhere being passed off by anti-Israel propagandists on social media as reflecting the current Gaza conflict.
It gets worse.
Now there are accusations that Israel is faking injuries, in essence doing...
On the streets of Paris today, a crowd of anti-Israel protesters surrounded and attacked a Synagogue full of worshippers, throwing rocks and attacking the building, via Times of Israel:
Several thousand demonstrators walked calmly through the streets of Paris behind a large banner that read “Total Support for the Struggle of the...
The Times of Israel sums up the casualties so far.
As of Saturday afternoon, the death toll in Gaza from Israel’s Operation Protective Edge had climbed to 127 people, after Israeli forces struck 60 targets overnight Friday and into Saturday; Israel had no breakdown on the proportion of civilian and combatant casualties....
In the propaganda war against Israel, fakery is key. Pallywood is the longest running series in the history of fiction.
This video is from the November 2012 Gaza conflict:
In the July 2014 Gaza conflict,
We highlighted earlier this week The threatening face of anti-Israel boycotters in America.
Here’s another example.
The Capitol City Project attended an anti-Israeli protest in Washington D.C. today, and had a nice chat with an anti-Israel protester carrying a Hezbollah flag:
A man carrying the flag of the terrorist group Hezbollah gathered with other...
This is a little spooky.
Here’s a blog post I wrote in November 2012, the last time Israel had to deal with the terrorist alliance in Gaza and its rocket fire:
Since then, we have added more Israeli blog friends, many of whom I met on my trip to Israel last summer.
So once...
CNN’s Jake Tapper on Thursday interviewed Diana Buttu, former legal adviser to the Palestine Liberation Organization, concerning the current conflict between Hamas and Israel. The interview got a bit…uncomfortable…as Tapper challenged Buttu on some of her responses.
Here is an excerpt:
TAPPER: Why is Hamas launching rockets into Israeli population centers and are...
We have previously reported Six Israeli Jews arrested in murder of Palestinian teen.
Police now have determined that three of the six were not involved in the murder, and have been released on home confinement since they may be implicated indirectly to a group to which the actual murderers belonged.
As Operation Protective Edge it’s worth anticipating the likely response to Israel’s latest war against Hamas. Israel will be accused of a disproportionate response and of not taking care to avoid collateral damage. Already there’s been at least one incident in which a number of civilians were injured and and 7...
From our good friend Anne in Petah Tikva, a story and translation regarding the zoo in Ramat Gan near Tel Aviv:
In contrast to the inhuman behaviour...
According to breaking reports, Hamas has fired several rockets towards the Dimona nuclear reactor.
Destroying the reactor and unleashing nuclear contamination has been a long-standing goal of Hezbollah, Iran and Hamas. Several days ago the IDF Spokesman’s Twitter account was hacked...
I never liked the phrase “self-hating Jew.”
Seems way too subjective, and the exception not the rule for those left-wing Jews who see only evil in Israel, and only good in Israel’s enemies.
Certainly, there are self-hating Jews, many of whom populate the anti-Israel boycott movement.
But for the most part, they don’t hate...
The New York Times, in the past week, has twice drawn a false moral equivalence between Israeli society and Palestinian society.
Last week after the killing of Mohammad Abu Khdair, Isabel Kershner of the New York Times wrote:
The two events exposed the extent to which parts of each side have dehumanized the...
Rockets fired from Gaza were shot down today over several major Israeli cities, including Tel Aviv — and landed in the Jerusalem vicinity.
Hamas landed 5 “naval commandos” by sea. They were taken out by an IDF helicopter gunship.
(added) Another video from the Israeli Navy of the same incident:
Elsewhere, Palestinians at the...
After weeks of rocket fire into Israel by Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and other terrorist groups in Gaza, Israel launched what it calls Operation Protective Edge.
As usual, Hamas and the others fire the rockets from the middle of heavily populated civilian areas (photo), thereby using the civilians as human shields. They...
I added Legal Insurrection’s name to the list of pro-Israel blogs and bloggers supporting Elder of Ziyon’s open and unequivocal condemnation of the murder of Mohammed Abu Khdeir.
In a follow up post today, Elder makes points I made this morning in
Israel is undergoing intense soul searching, as a nation, for the actions of what are believed to be 6 Israeli Jews in murdering an Israeli Arab teen, Mohammed Abu Khedair, in retaliation for the kidnapping and murder of three Israeli teens, Gil-ad Shaar, Eyal Yifrach and Naftali Fraenkel.
Much of that critic...
