Re: Mid-East coverage Baffles Britons

You know, I do believe the press is biased. But I don't think it is biased in the way this author is suggesting. Nor do I think the information presented is necessarily correct. For instance, I just did a google search on "Palestinian deaths" and I got 6,800 hits. I did a google search on "Israeli deaths" and got 4,070. This means that I got the OPPOSITE results as the columnist above. But don't trust me! Do it yourself and see what you get.

I tried to follow up with google searches on "atrocity" "Israel" and "atrocity" "Palestinian" but I found that most of the articles condemned Israel no matter which google search I did.

My research only took a few minutes, is not scientific, but I think anyone can see that the media, if anything, is biased AGAINST Israel.

How many indymedia readers know that in 1967, Israel took control over the West Bank and Gaza from Jordan and Egypt respectively? But no one says they are "occupying" Jordan or Egypt.
The lands Israel is "occupying" are not "Palestinian" lands. They are unallocated portions of the British Palestine Mandate.
