A father and son became the latest Israeli victims of Palestinian terrorism when a gunman (terrorist) opened fire on them at a carwash close to the West Bank town of Huwara on Saturday afternoon. Both the BBC and AFP failed to include the fact that Shai and Aviad Nigreker were both residents of the southern Israeli city of Ashdod and were not — as both news reports suggest — settlers living in a West Bank settlement. Note: all the reports I've read seem to excuse the Palestinian murder of these two men because they might have been "settlers." The LA Times and Reuters take it further with their headline implying that there's doubt that the shooter was Palestinian!

Do you recall the outrage and calls for investigations into the death of a reporter (Shireen Abu Akleh) covering a war zone when the conflict involved Israelis? There's been an uptick in aggression against journalists by the PA and her colleague (Ali Al-Samoudi) was recently injured and his colleague was targeted by Palestinian authorities; have you heard any outrage or calls for investigations?

Israel like most countries today are having a push/pull between the right and the left. Our questions: why is it getting so much coverage and why is so much of the coverage far from impartial? While we were in Spain, we opened the NYT app and the first 3 stories were about Israel's judicial reforms. The fourth article was about Russian attacks on Ukraine, which impacts the world food supply. Does this make sense to you? CAMERA reports on major news organizations like CNN ignoring newsworthy stories in places like Yemen, Syria, Egypt, and Turkey so it can indulge its obsession with the Jewish state. Meanwhile,  the US is building a 43 acre, $1billion “embassy" in Lebanon. There is essentially no government in Lebanon except Hezbollah.
