This morning, I discussed the first part of a late September column by Gil Hoffman of the Jerusalem Post: “Foreign media outlets must repent for anti-Israel coverage – opinion,” by Gil Hoffman, Jerusalem Post, September 23, 2023. Now that the war is started, it is more important than ever to call out the longstanding media […]
Day of Atonement For Media Maligning Israel
In late September, just ahead of Yom Kippur, the traditional day for Jews to ask forgiveness from people they have wronged, Gil Hoffman of the Jerusalem Post wrote that “foreign media outlets must repent for anti-Israel coverage.” Clearly they did not do so, and now that the war has started, they need to do so […]
Lebanon: TV host calls Hamas massacre of Israeli civilians a ‘very wonderful, beautiful and sweet attack’
What Ahmad al-Hadi says has been said by other Hamas operatives. What is noteworthy here is how the host characterized the bloodthirsty massacre of babies and children and other civilians, and the rape of Israeli women. NBN TV watchers would be forgiven for thinking they had inadvertently tuned in to the BBC. “Hamas Representative in […]
BBC Under Attack for Refusing to Call Hamas ‘Terrorists’
The BBC, which has a long and dishonorable history of anti-Israel animus, has again shown its bias by refusing to call the members of Hamas “terrorists.” No, for the BBC, those who decapitate babies, rape girls as they are made to lie on the corpses of murdered Israelis, photograph the dead bodies of grandmothers and […]
Hamas-linked CAIR serves as a tool for the Left in Oklahoma
As has been discussed at Jihad Watch previously, the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) uses its media access to attack individual people or things on TV at a current rate of four times a month. These incidents vary in degree of severity and outrage, but are steadily increasing in frequency every year. This past August, […]
Notes On The War
1. On Saturday, Oct 7, I began monitoring as many different news programs as I could, to see how they covered Hamas’ attack and Israel’s response. I started by listening to the BBC coverage of the war. The BBC, I noticed, consistently underreported Israeli casualties. When the rest of the news sources online had already […]

Germany: Muslim leader spins violent Muslim attack on non-Muslim as ‘Islamophobia’ and ‘anti-Muslim racism’
There is so little actual hatred of Muslims in the West (nor should there be; opposition to jihad violence and Sharia oppression is not hatred of random individuals) that it has to be manufactured out of an obvious case of Islamic supremacist thuggery. An update on this story. “Mazyek reinterprets Islamist violence as an anti-Muslim […]
Headline at Forbes.com Wildly Misleads
There’s been a lot going on between the IDF and Palestinians this September. In Gaza, Palestinians are again on the march — though not nearly with the same numbers as during the Great March of Return that they conducted from 2018 to 2019, in an attempt to breach the security fence between Gaza and Israel. […]
BBC claims ‘fanatic Jews’ were the first suicide bombers
The BBC is, as always, a disgrace. Jihad suicide bombers aren’t imitating the sicari. They’re acting upon the promise in the Qur’an: “Indeed, Allah has bought from the believers their lives and their wealth, because the garden will be theirs, they will fight in the way of Allah and will kill and be killed.” (Qur’an […]
