Isabel Kershner: her record of hate and propaganda
Every word, every letter, every comma that Isabel Kershner writes in the New York Times contains elements of Israeli military/intelligence propaganda. The hate against Arabs that constitutes the thrust of her "reporting" is highly analogous to the "reporting" in Der Angriff in Berlin. Look at this: "Initially, Israeli military officials anonymously raised questions about whether those accounts were fabricated; Friday brought the first official comment. The army commander in the West Bank, Brig. Gen. Nitzan Alon, was quoted by Haaretz as saying the woman probably died not from tear gas but from other medical “complications, combined with problems in the medical care she received at the Palestinian hospital.” On Sunday, Israeli soldiers shot and killed a Palestinian man as he approached a checkpoint in the northern West Bank. The military said that he was holding a glass bottle, and that he had approached the checkpoint in an unauthorized lane and failed to heed orders to stop." And notice that instead of spending time talking about the victim, she chose instead to focus on the Hamas guys to justify the murder of the innocent man.
