That such a high-profile overt desecration of a (the?) Christian holy site can go unreported, because the spin would *help* Israel, is nothing less than frightening.

Well, it just was reported. Maybe it will be passed around - if the monks are interviewed. Since they are Armenian, not locals. They have little reason to slant there stories.

It would be amazing to believe that nothing like this would have happened. The way I read through the stories, the invasion of the Church was a pre-planned option for propaganda purposes - maybe mistaken in believing it would be a positive spin. There's hard-core terrs in there, regular gunmen, and people who just got caught up in all of it.

The Media Whores are willing accomplices of the new Nazis, the Palestinian terrorists who target every Jewish man, woman, and child for death. The Media Whores wants to report anything, including flagrant lies, that makes Israel look bad, and covers up the truth when it makes the Palestinians look bad. The Media Whores are a large part of the problem.
