Friends of Hamas: CBS Scoffs at Israeli Soldiers Shot at the Border
News Busters ^ | May 18th, 2021 | Nicholas Fondacaro

As the latest flare-up between the Israelis and Palestinians dragged on, CBS Evening News seemingly wouldn’t be happy until the Jewish State of Israel was pushed into the sea. Tuesday’s edition of their Hamas-friendly coverage featured foreign correspondent Holly Williams scoffing at how two Israeli soldiers were shot by terrorists as Palestinians took part in their “day of rage” in the West Bank. And, of course, she spewed the Hamas propaganda that was fed to her.

As she was transitioning to the segment, anchor Norah O’Donnell suggested it was Israel’s duty to de-escalate the situation despite Hamas deliberately targeting Israeli civilians. “The Israeli military spokesman says that as long as rockets are being fired at Israel, de-escalation is not on the table,” she griped.

“The Palestinians have been throwing stones, and the Israeli soldiers who are about 300 yards away on that hillside, have been shooting tear gas canisters and live fire,” Williams proclaimed at the top of the video.

Williams also made it clear that she had no sympathies for the Israeli soldiers protecting Israeli civilians. “Dozens of Palestinians were reported injured and four killed. Israel claims two soldiers were shot in the leg, though we saw no guns on the Palestinian side,” she scoffed.

So, Williams wants us believe that her tiny section of the over 400-mile West Bank Barrier was representative of the situation over the entire area. Clearly, she was trying to mislead and gaslight CBS viewers about the situation on the ground. She also tried to peddle the already debunked claims about the Arab evictions in East Jerusalem.

And her affinity for Hamas was clear. At one point, she lamented that the group was “considered a terrorist organization by the U.S.” Of course, she omitted how most civilized countries agreed with that accurate assessment.

Hamas’s days-long barrage of rockets were of little interest to Williams as she decried how Israel had the nerve to defend itself. “In retaliation, the tiny, poverty-stricken Gaza strip has been shattered by Israeli airstrikes,” she sneered.

Then there’s how she peddled the Gaza casualty numbers fabricated by Hamas. “Around 50,000 people have now fled their homes, and more than 200 have been killed,” she said as if it were true. She vaguely admitted that the numbers came from “Palestinian officials,” but refused to admit the Health Ministry was controlled by Hamas.

This wasn’t the first time that Williams had showed her support for Middle East terrorists and not just Hamas.

Almost three years ago to the day, Williams parroted Palestinian extremists who called the creation of the Jewish state of Israel a “catastrophe.” “Most of the Palestinians here today are peaceful, but some are attempting to cross the border. They're throwing stones and lighting fires,” she touted. “These protests also mark the 70th anniversary of the founding of the state of Israel which the Palestinians call a catastrophe.”

In 2019, she sympathized with an ISIS bride who said her punishment should be some “therapy” sessions. “Hoda Muthana was studying business at the University of Alabama in 2014 when she told her family she was going on a school trip. Instead, flying to the Middle East and crossing into ISIS territory in Syria,” she reported.

And she sprinted to use more Hamas numbers back in 2018 when the group claimed 60 people were killed storming the border with Israel, and she claimed they were civilians. There was no follow-up report when Hamas admitted the next day that most of the people were terrorists.

So, when will CBS and Williams be happy?

CBS’s support for Hamas terrorism was made possible because of lucrative sponsorships from Ancestry and Fidelity. Their contact information is linked so you can tell them about the biased news they fund. CBS has also asked people to “Text Norah” at this number: (202) 217-1107

I didn’t see any scoffs in the video. They did say there were no guns on the Palestinian side. Is that a scoff?

Williams is reporting safely from Israel. She needs to join her heroes in Hamas and report from the Gaza side of this conflict.

I would enjoy hearing her scoff at Israel and make fun of shot Israeli soldiers.

If we were lucky Williams would be quickly quieted, along with the leftist AP / Al Jeezera press building that Israel recently destroyed to cut of Haama’s major intel resource.

Alahwahoo WHACKbar.

Holly Williams: “So, if a Jew soldier gets wounded, would you take him to a veterinarian? After all, Jews are sons of pigs and apes! (chuckle)”

“Most of the Palestinians here today are peaceful,”

Mostly peaceful.

Well, it’s not like she could be reporting from the local AP headquarters there. It got the Rachel Corzine treatment...

These two dumb libtard-brainwashed b____s should definitely go over to Gaza and other Arab places, where they can be raped and killed by their “peaceful” Arab heroes—after all, they are only women. Only worth being taken to a veterinarian, and frankly, I wouldn’t spend the money on them.

Asking for a friend.
