    Why not ? Because it paints a negative light on Israelis and the genocidal thoughts that seemingly some of them have ?

      would you consider the other point of view also as news ?

      I personally would not declare the outings of an Veteran of either country as news…

        The fact that we have had around 100 or more articles about Hamas and attacks from Hamas members in the last few days says your question is somewhat superficial.

        Everyone seems to agree that it is news. There’s plenty of articles about individuals claiming to be for Palestine that make very questionable statements.

        You know what the big difference here is though?

        Israel has very broad support in the rest of the world. Especially the west. The most powerful economies on the planet. Who send Israel tons of aid. The US just parked an aircraft carrier strike group in their front yard.

        Both sides have fanatics stating how they want to eradicate the other. Only one said has absolute control over the other though and has the means to actually follow through with their plans.
