Media's Gaza Hypocrisy vs. Memorial Day
Plus: Is Mohsen Mahdawi the new George Santos?
This month on Memorial Day, the U.S. media will, appropriately, memorialize heroic U.S. soldiers who fought in World War II — a war in which huge numbers of German civilians were also killed, including children. A war that was followed by a crucial military occupation and denazification effort. A war that proved good can beat evil.
Today, that same media is on five-alarm-fire mode over reports that Israel might “occupy” Gaza, a site run by Islamist Nazis who celebrate death, call for slaughter, and praise Hitler as a hero (except when they communicate to the West in English).
