The fact is Hezbollah could not get away with its depraved atrocities if not for the unstinting support of a large segment of the global media. In some cases, this is indirect, through the usual devices of propaganda and advertising such as selective emphasis, invited inference, and false equivalence.
Others, especially in the UK, are quite open in their love for the demonic cult, praising Hezbollah to the rafters and revelling in its license to commit one barbarous atrocity after another.

This must end.

The Israeli government, and Israel’s friends throughout the world, must understand that there is no point in trying to appease the establishment media. The media are not with the enemy, they ARE the enemy.

I propose the following:
All pro-Hezbollah media to be expelled from Israel at once, the determination of pro-Hezbollah status to be made by a special commission of experts in rhetoric, forensics, and communications theory.

Any assets of pro-Hezbollah media or their principals within Israeli reach to be confiscated and the proceeds distributed to the families of Hezbollah’s victims.

Open Hezbollah propagandists such as Fisk, Pilger and Raven to be arrested if possible and tried under the Julius Streicher precedent.

All Hezbollah and Palestinian prisoners lawfully convicted of murder to be executed immediately, and their remains repatriated in the same condition as the those of Israelis murdered by Hezbollah.

Propose away. I’m not real familiar with inter-Israeli politics but things don’t look good for your proposals. Likely, all those guys will be given medals and asked to murder Israeli kids in exchange for promising to return their bodies.
