Let’s talk about…MSM Coverage of Israeli War Crimes

by | Oct 26, 2024 | 5 comments

Kit Knightly – Off Guardian Oct 24, 2024

Two weeks ago, it was widely reported across all the Western legacy media that Israel had fire-bombed a hospital leaving patients to burn to death in their beds.

A few days later, we were told by the same Western legacy media that Israeli strikes inside Lebanon had destroyed a 2000-year-old village.

Today, CNN’s front page hosts an IDF soldier describing Israel’s practice of using civilians as human shields in Gaza, while the Guardian details an Israeli strike on school-turned-bomb shelter in Gaza.

Now, it’s not at all unusual that Israel should be committing war crimes, they’ve been doing so unchecked for decades.

But what is less usual is seeing these war crimes appearing on front pages and  in headlines in the controlled media.

We’ve all been doing this long to have dispelled any idea the MSM cares about truth.

They don’t care about truth. Not at all. In fact these days their internal structures barely permit them to recognize truth as a concept.

Nothing – nothing –  is so true the media have to report it, no crimes are so brutal they can’t be ignored.

Case in point, in Odessa in 2014 civilians protesting the NATO-backed coup in Ukraine were chased inside the Trade Union building by pro-coup neo-Nazis.

The building was barricaded and set on fire. People climbing out of the windows to escape the flames were shot at.

Forty people died, shot or burned to death. The neo-Nazis responsible celebrated by showing pictures of beetles being set alight (their disparaging term for ethnic Russians was “Colorado beetles” in reference to the orange and black ribbon of St George they wore).

How did the legacy media respond to this murder?

Well, they just lied.

They claimed the protesters set the fire by accident when they were throwing Molotov cocktails off the roof. This was a complete fabrication, contradicted by CCTV evidence, blaming the victims and covering for the fascists,  but so what? They media didn’t care, they just kept repeating the lie and are still doing so today

Truth is irrelevant, narrative is all. That’s how the media works.

They’ve done the same in the past  for Israel , the US, Saudi Arabia, NATO…whoever…countless times over the years.

And yet  here we are, in  2024, with these Israeli crimes all over the controlled news.

They could lie if they wanted, as they usually do.

But they aren’t.

It prompts the eternal question: “Why this? Why now?”

    The jihad in Europe is a bigger war crime, and the Establishment has sided with the Moslems

    Well just look at the wonderful BRICS conference that has just been held in Russia, a turning-point in 21st century history, the birth of a new hope for our modern world – not a peep in our media. Zilch. It was GOOD NEWS – so, simple, just ban all mention of it.

    “And yet here we are, in 2024, with these Israeli crimes all over the controlled news.”

    Maybe like the jew queer in Ukraine, the scum at the top are deserting isra-hell too.

    If something hasn’t been “Kosher Certified” by the BBC or SLY News then it can’t possible be true…

    RIGHT??? 😉

    And yet here we are, in 2024, with these Israeli crimes all over the controlled news. They could lie if they wanted, as they usually do. But they aren’t. It prompts the eternal question: “Why this? Why now?”

    There is a reason for all of this. The Synagogue of Satan, the Pharasaic Khazarian Mafia (KM) have controlled the news media for a very long time, in fact for more than 144 years. The following is stated from the book, The Synagogue of Satan, The Secret History of Jewish World Domination by Andrew C. Hitchcock, 2007:

    1880: In America, John Swinton, then the pre-eminent New York journalist, was the guest of honour at a banquet given him by the leaders of his craft. Someone who knew neither the press nor Swinton offered a toast to the independent press. Swinton outraged his colleagues by replying,
    .
    “There is no such thing, at this date of the world’s history, in America, as an independent press. You know it and I know it.
    .
    There is not one of you who dares to write your honest opinions, and if you did, you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid weekly for keeping my honest opinion out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for similar things, and any of you who would be so foolish as to write honest opinions would be out on the streets looking for another job. If I allowed my honest opinions to appear in one issue of my paper, before twenty-four hours my occupation would be gone.
    .
    The business of the journalists is to destroy the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it, and what folly is this toasting an independent press?
    .
    We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes.”

    One may wonder, what is with all of this lying, withholding of information, and speaking some truth intermixed with lies is about.

    Hannah Arendt (1906-1975), German historian and philosopher stated,

    “This constant lying is not aimed at making the people believe a lie, but at ensuring that no one believes anything anymore.
    A people that can no longer distinguish between truth and lies cannot distinguish between right and wrong.
    And such a people, deprived of the power to think and judge, is, without knowing and willing it, completely subjected to the rule of lies. With such a people, you can do whatever you want.”

    With this mix of truth and lies is combined with censoring truthers, to sustain the KM Bolshevik liars. See The Western World Has Succumbed to Tyranny dated Aug. 20, 2024:

    We can add Richard Medhurst to Tulsi Gabbard, Scott Ritter, Amb. Craig Murray, Julian Assange, and many others who are harassed, arrested, imprisoned by police state authorities in the US, UK, EU, and Canada for practicing the disappearing profession of journalism. When Richard Medhurst can be arrested in a London airport for “expressing an opinion or belief that is supportive of a proscribed organization,” we know freedom is dead and journalism no longer exists. All that Western journalists are permitted to do today is to support the official lies in the official narratives that are used to construct the false reality in which we live.
    .
    We no longer have the BBC, the New York Times, the London Times, ABC, NBC, CBS to hold government accountable. What we have are propaganda ministries that support official narratives. The job of the Western media is to lie to the people in behalf of the establishment that rules them. […]

    What is Richard Medhurst’s sin? See the short video explanation in https://en.irna.ir/news/85303510/Egypt-Jordan-and-Saudi-Arabia-should-follow-Yemen-s-example . As a journalist, he simply spoke the truth and spoke positively for the Palestinians and against the genocide now occurring in Palestine. This is why Starmer and Sir Rowley are imprisoning Brit indigenous white truthers, not just white but any truther who speaks contrary to the KM, yet releasing the real criminals by ignoring their lawless deeds.

    Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that change darkness into light, and light into darkness; that change bitter into sweet, and sweet into bitter! … That justify the wicked for a reward, and take away the righteousness of the righteous from him! Isaiah 5:20,23 (Jewish Publication Society)

    Woe to them that devise iniquity and work evil upon their beds! When the morning is light, they execute it, because it is in the power of their hand. And they covet fields, and seize them; and houses, and take them away; thus they oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage. Therefore thus saith HaShem: Behold, against this family do I devise an evil, from which ye shall not remove your necks, neither shall ye walk upright; for it shall be an evil time. Micah 2:1-3 (Jewish Publication Society)
