New in PJ Media: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has the Leftist political and media elites deeply rattled, and that’s utterly delightful. Imagine this scenario: a wildly unpopular and manifestly incapable president is running, however haltingly, for reelection. Initially he seemed like a lock, but then he encountered an unexpected challenge from a scion of an […]
Canada: Islamic charity wins suit to silence its critics, despite the accuracy of their statements
“The underlying logic is that the truth of the claims about IRC do not matter, only their impact on the organization. Well, sometimes the truth hurts, as well it should.” Yes, but in this Age of Absurdity, the truth increasingly doesn’t matter. “Islamist Charity Silences its Critics in Canada, the Fight Continues,” by Dexter Van Zile, Focus […]
House Demolitions by Israel and by Egypt
When Israel demolishes Palestinian homes illegally built in east Jerusalem, and in Area C of the West Bank, Western reporters are out in force to report on those terrible Israelis who for no apparent reason are tearing down those homes as despairing innocent Palestinians look on, helpless to stop the destruction. No mention is made […]
The Irish Times Goes Easy On Iran, But Hard On Israel
In early June, Iran announced it had developed its very own “hypersonic” missile that could attain speeds of five to ten times the speed of sound – and reach Israel within “400 seconds,” too quickly, it was claimed, to be intercepted by Israel’s anti-missile defenses. The homicidal glee with which this was announced, displayed even […]
Maryland: Hamas-linked CAIR demands apology from councilwoman for supposedly insulting Muslims
Washington, D.C. TV station WTTG has once again lost the thread in its news coverage of the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).

How the BBC’s Yolande Knell Covered an Accidental Killing by the IDF
Like the Guardian, the New York Times, and the Washington Post, the BCC reports on Israel and the Palestinians in a manner that must please the rais in Ramallah, Mahmoud Abbas. More on the latest example of anti-Israel bias at Bush House can be found here: “BBC Distorts Accidental Palestinian Death to Attack Israel,” by Hadar Sela, […]
Elie Wiesel, Maligned For Being A Zionist
A review of a biography by Joseph Berger of the late Elie Wiesel, a survivor of Auschwitz, has just appeared in the British newspaper, The Telegraph. According to Adam Levick, the review was most disturbing, for the reviewer seemed to think it unacceptable that Wiesel was and remained a strong supporter of Israel. More on this […]
Mohammed Najib, ‘Journalist’
Mohamed Najib is an anti-Israel propagandist and quasi-journalist, whose latest article in the Arab News offers further proof of his animus toward the Jewish state. More on his piece can be found here: “Arab News parrots Palestinian lies about the Temple Mount. Lying reporter has written for major news media,” Elder of Ziyon, May 25, […]
The Palestinians and the Holocaust
Earlier today we saw some of the ways an article in the Irish Times manages to calumniate Israel through sins both of omission and commission. And one of its sins of omission concerns how the Palestinians treat, or fail to, the Holocaust. We saw how the terror group Hamas denies outright the existence of the […]
From the Irish Times, A Lot of Irish Bull
One more anti-Israel article has just appeared in The Irish Times – the paper has published a long series of them — offering a lot of Irish bull and also the other kind. More about the article can be found here: “Palestinian Terrorism and Holocaust Denialism Given Free Pass in Confused Op-Ed,” by Rachel O’Donoghue, […]
