Israel/Palestine

I looked up what Shaked said. She quoted someone who, after the kidnapping and murder of three Jewish teens, said this was a war with the Palestinian people, which is not a good thing to say. But what she said was not what Mondoweiss printed or implied at all. She never called for destruction or genocide at all. This is a common technique of, well, you people. You people put a fantastical characterization over something, and then you people condemn someone for that characterization. You people could legitimately criticize what she actually said, but when Mondoweiss then creates a falseheadline (she called for genocide) you used that as a fact since it was reported in Mondoweiss.

Then when someone you people admire like Mahmoud Abbas say something such as ....
“Al-Aksa is ours and so is the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. They [the Jews] have no right to desecrate them with their filthy feet. We won’t allow them to do so and we will do whatever we can to defend Jerusalem” “Each drop of blood that was spilled in Jerusalem is pure blood as long as it’s for the sake of Allah. Every shahid (martyr) will be in heaven and every wounded person will be rewarded, by Allah’s will.” ... you people somehow find doubt that it means what it actually says, you people create a different fantastical characterization and find that that characterization is something that can be ignored.
