And On The Other Side...

One Nikhil Aziz, Executive Director of Grassroots, wrote me:

As the death toll rises in Gaza to over 650 with thousands more wounded in the 11 days since the Israeli military campaign began, mainstream U.S. media outlets are toeing the official Israeli government line, scarcely mentioning statements from the international human rights community, progressive Israelis, or Palestinians.

Futhermore, there has been virtually no coverage of the U.S. role in the conflict...

Please take a moment to let your local media as well as national outlets know that biased coverage of the conflict in Gaza is unacceptable...

We've put together a list of talking points like these to help you engage with the media...

Join the efforts to call for fair and thorough coverage of the tragedy in Gaza today.

Sincerely,

P.S. We are now providing regular updates and stories from our partners and allies in Gaza, as well as opportunities to donate and take action, at the following URL...

Haha, i like the label "arab propaganda". Is that synonym to "fair and thorough coverage"?
You have no shame Medad.
