French media loses big court case proving Palestinian propaganda false, New York Times ignores shocking story Why?
France TV 2 has lost a major court case in France that makes the lie to a major piece of Palestinian propaganda. In 2000 an incident occurred in the Palestinian areas that has since been used as propaganda for the Palestinian cause all across the world and the New York Times has repeatedly been a willing host for this propaganda. Now, however, it has been proven that France 2 perpetrated a lie that has given succor to terrorism. And where is the New York Times with this momentous news that proves Israeli innocence? Nowhere to be seen.
In 2000 the Palestinians began what they called the second intifada against Israel, a kick in the teeth to the Israelis seeking only peace. During the early stages of this attack France 2 TV, a state run television station, aired what it claimed was a video of a child and his father being shot and killed by Israeli security forces.
Palestinian sources claimed that what France 2 TV showed the French public and the world was the death of 12-year-old Muhammad al-Dura and his father, killed by Israeli security forces. The shock of this small boy being mercilessly shot down by Jews drew condemnation like a lightening rod. Supporters of Palestine the world over were outraged, posters appeared, protests were whipped up, postage stamps with the image of this child's supposed last minutes on Earth were even created in Egypt and Tunisia. The "death" of Muhammad al-Dura rallied support to Palestinians against the Jews. And for the last 8 years the New York Times has been right there with the "news" pushing the story for all its worth.

Short version: There was video showing the whole thing being staged, Ch. 2 had it, knowingly pushed 100% pure palescumian propaganda, proven in court.
ACtually they are still attacked by antisemites adn antizionists or rather these groups take it on faith that the NYTimes and MSM is pro-Israel and then call the far left press and MSM unbiased.
Philippe Karsenty is a hero. I’ve heard him on Dennis Prager’s show.

Hopefully this is an indication that some cracks are appearing in the edifice of Eurabia.
