CNN Bows to Israeli Pressure
A "special report" on the Victims of Terror popped up immediately after CNN admitted an error in its Mid East coverage after heavy criticism from Israelis. What a co-winky dink, eh?
I would guess that the killing of women and children at market will not be included in CNN's special report...
Alas, I've said it before:
...the label of terrorism is completely useless unless there is some effort to find and apply a similar politicized label to violence induced by a state actor. “Moral equivalency,” some will yell…but it’s hard to not see that “terrorism” is being rolled out for political purposes; and to serve as a functional trump card to unleash military action on populations or political entities which cannot respond or defend themselves in a formal military confrontation with any reasonable sense of proportionality.Also on Israel:
While they haven't started executing relatives of suicide bombers yet, the Israeli government is going to start demolishing their homes in preparation for expulsion.
Plus, who's winning the e-war?
