Why not, "New blow to Gaza peace deal as Hamas still hasn't returned the body of hostage Ran Gvili," @IrishTimes.com? Hamas hasn't fulfilled its obligations under the ceasefire agreement. How about holding the terrorist org accountable instead of solely blaming Israel?

New year, same ol' whitewashing of terrorism. Instead of focusing on Marwan Barghouti's history of terrorism and incitement, @NPR's interview with his son practically turned the arch-terrorist into a saint. This wasn't journalism, it was publicly-funded PR for a terrorist.

Zohran Mamdani has "demurred," has he, @washingtonpost.com? Actually, he believes in the end of Israel as a Jewish state and supports the antisemitic BDS movement. Rather than demurring on the question, he's made himself crystal clear. So stop whitewashing his hatred of Israel.
