New in PJ Media:
The New York Times is upset with Israel — which tells you that today is a day ending with a y. This time, however, it’s not a fictional genocide or an equally fictional occupation that has the Paper of Record in a snit; instead, the Times is upset because the Israelis still think of themselves as the victims of the Oct. 7 jihad attacks that killed 1,200 Israelis. If the Israelis were thinking the way the Times wants them to think, you see, they’d realize that the Palestinian Arabs who attacked them were the real victims.
This is standard establishment media practice. On Sept. 5, I published an article here at PJM called “From Now to the 9/11 Anniversary, Expect Wall-to-Wall ‘Islamophobia’ Coverage,” and if I were that right all of the time, I could make a killing in Vegas. The establishment media’s 9/11 coverage was almost entirely devoted to telling us what a rough time Muslims have had in the U.S. in the last 25 years, and how the rapid growth in Muslim numbers and political power shouldn’t distract us from the fact that they’re the actual victims.
And now the establishment media’s flagship publication is extending the same treatment to Oct. 7. On Sept. 14, the Times published an article about a new piece of anti-Israel propaganda, casting the producers of this propaganda as standing heroically against censorious Israeli officials: “After Accolades Abroad, an Israeli Documentary Faces a Backlash at Home,” with this subtitle: “The film ‘NAZA’ investigates the killing of Palestinians by Israeli forces in Gaza. Israel’s culture minister has suggested revoking the directors’ citizenship.”
That was usual Times fare, but in this paragraph, longtime Times reporter Isabel Kershner went far, far beyond that: “Israelis are deeply divided over how to apportion blame for the policy, military and intelligence failures that preceded the attack and the war. But Israelis still largely view themselves as the victims of Oct. 7. The militants’ attack killed about 1,200 people in Israel, and about 250 more were taken hostage, according to the Israeli authorities. It was the deadliest day in the country’s history.”
Kershner is clearly not intending by this to enter into tinfoil-hat territory. She is obviously not denying that the attack happened. But she apparently wants us to see the murders of those 1,200 people, and the taking hostage of 250 more, as a justifiable response to the alleged Israeli oppression of the Palestinian Arabs, to the degree that the Israelis are no longer the victims of Oct. 7, but the perpetrators of atrocities that were so much greater that Oct. 7 was a justified response.
There is more. Read the rest here.

The New York Times lack the knowledge about Israeli culture and history, besides they lack the heart to understand how evil islam is. This is the kind of media that fuels more jihad because they don’t perceive evil as evil and there is absolutely no appetite to get rid of an evil force detrimental to mankind.

I have wondered for a long time who the major stock holders of the New York Times are. Could Saudi Arabia or Qatar or other islamic countries have a financial influence on our media through investment in these media companies?

During a 2025 Dearborn MI city council meeting, a Christian resident raised an objection to the renaming of a street for a Hamas and Hezbollah supporter. The Muslim mayor told the resident “You are not welcome here”. He further said “The day you move out of the city will be the day that I launch a parade celebrating the fact that you moved out of this city.” This is an example of what awaits us if we don’t resist this “Religion of Peace”.

The NY Slimes has been anti-western cultural ,anti-Semitic and anti-Christian for a long time. They are part and parcel in on the red green alliance .They have in the past said Castro was a really good future leader of Cuba in 1957 ,they have praised Stalin in the 1920s-1940s as he murder millions of his own people .They have praise China in the 1990s in their murderous 1 child policy that had forced abortion and forced sterilization on millions of their own people on an industrial scale. They even praise Hitler in the early 1930s.Why should anyone be shocked they Think the Oct.7 terror attack on unarmed villages in Israel .The raping ,kidnaping and torturing to death of unarmed men women and children a bad thing because of some unnamed unexplained colonize jingo propaganda. Gaza was empty of all Jewish “settlers” in 2006 and given over to these Moslems who are lead by a terror organization Hamas whose clean goal is to kill every Jew in Israel and wipe out the state of Israel. Open borders for the Americas and Europe are a good thing in the NY slimes reasoning because western civilization needs improved threw “cultural enrichment” because according to the NY Slimes all cultures are equal and good.

Criticizing the New York Times for its anti-Israel stance is akin to criticizing Yahya Sarea (Houthi spokesman) for his rhetoric. It takes lots of effort to do so, with no possibility of making a dent in the anti-Israel and and antisemitic bent of the Grey Lady.
Magooey says
In case the NY Times forgot to do some fact checking.

Question.
Is the New York Times still shocked that true Americans still think that 9-11-2001 was like, a bad thing?
Then, again, if I remember correctly, the NY Times carried a lot of water for Hamas over the past several years.
Personally, I’m shocked that the NY Times is still in business.

Heavy foreign investors I believe the NYT (slimes) is own by a corp. run by a Mexican billionaire. I think his name is Slims you can fact check me ,if I am wrong post it here..
WPM says
A Mexican billionaire ( Carlos Slim) owns about 20 percent of all the stock of the NYT. He is the largest holder of the stock in that company .He is a Soros shady kind of guy that stays out of the limelight.
