“Journalists”

Here we go again, in that dreary cycle where a barrage of Hamas rockets at Israeli civilians causes a barrage of media rhetoric against Israel. What part of “Death to Jews” do they not understand?

Seriously. Most Western media outlets misrepresent the conflict in ways that can only strengthen the hand of those bent on wiping the Jewish state and its inhabitants off the map. From headlines like “Israel pounds Gaza with heavy strikes as conflict enters second week” to sneering insinuations that Biden is retrograde in backing Israel, the press scrupulously avoids noting that the violence began with Hamas and will end, as Golda Meir reputedly said, “when the Arabs will love their children more than they hate us.”

For the past week, Israel and Hamas have been engaged in an energetic exchange of ordnance. The catalyst for the current rejuvenation of Hamas’ terror campaign against Israel is unclear but the reason it is happening now and not one or two or three or four years ago is crystal clear. Unhappy at inheriting a quiescent Middle East where Israel and the Arab world are developing economic, security, and diplomatic ties and Iran is so cash-strapped that it is finding it difficult to fund its terrorist operations, the Biden bunch is, in a flashback from the Obama administration, attempting to bolster Iran as the regional superpower while limiting assistance and cooperation with our Arab allies and with Israel.
