He pretended to be a journalist, got close to a member of the IDF and stabbed him before being killed. Now his funeral is a cause celebre
Some of you are going to think I’m being unfair to the media on this one. After all, the AP merely shot raw video without comment. USA Today merely posted it without comment. How is that bias? How are they making a martyr of the guy whose funeral was shown in the video?
I’ll tell you how. First, let’s be clear on what happened. A 20-year-old Palestinian terrorist named Eyad Awawdeh ambushed a member of the Israel Defense Force by dressing up like a journalist to get close to him, then proceeded to stab him. Other IDF forces were on the scene and defended their colleague by killing the Palestinian. The Times of Israel has more:
He was a terrorist. He’s dead. That makes him a dead terrorist, not a martyr.
Kill islamists en masse.
Sort of depends on your point of view.
Big media has chosen to portray him as a martyr.
And that tells us their point of view ...
Throw in some media types and you got a deal
If you hate Jews, he is a martyr. We know which side Obama and the media are on.
If the media could make a saint out of Michael Brown, all is possible. #BlackLivesMatter now it’s #MuslimLivesMatter.
The left cannot think rationally. All they can see is dark skin, a primitive culture, a religion that promotes violence, and they conclude that they are oppressed.
Give the soldiers medals and bonus pay. Thise blood-soaked murderers (aka:palis) don’t belong in a civil society.
The Anti-Semitic press strikes again-
MSM = Jew Haters apparently
