Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu Denounces New York Times for ‘Fake News’

17

Benjamin Netanyahu, prime minister of Israel, called out the New York Times in a recent public remark for putting forward reports along the standard of fake news.

His scathing assessment came via a YouTube video.

Bibi was speaking of an Algemeiner report that faulted the New York Times for its coverage of Hamas. In a May 2 headline, Algemeiner wrote: “new York Times Touts Hamas ‘Moderation,’ Ignores ‘Truly Disgusting’ Video in Which Group Taunts Bereaved Israeli Parents.”

Netanyahy scolded the New York Times — to say the least.

From Algemeiner:

“Netanyahu’s video, published May 7, features the prime minister asking, ‘Ever wonder what fake news is?’

“Netanyahu took the Times to task for its headline touting purported “moderation” by the Hamas terrorist group.

“‘This is a complete distortion of the truth,’ the prime minister says in the video.

“‘Is moving from calling for genocide of all Jews everywhere to calling just for the annihilation of Israel, is that progress, or moderation?’ Netanyahu asks rhetorically. Then he answers his own question: ‘Only if you have no standards whatsoever.’

“‘It’s bad enough that Hamas lies to the world, we don’t also have to lie to ourselves,’ he says.

“The Times, which hyped the so-called Hamas moderation at the top of its front page, buried the news of the Netanyahu video in a single sentence in the 16th paragraph of an article complaining about a reorganization of Israel’s public broadcasting. The article itself appeared inside the newspaper, not on the front page.”

On top of that, the New York Times failed to provide a hyperlink so that readers could view the video themselves, Algemeiner reported.

Agreed. It is the same as watching someone near and dear draw their final breath, isn’t it?

The CEO of NYT was hired from BBC. He hid Jimmy Saville raping children. Mr Mark Thompson is filth.

How do I know that those children were telling the truth? It is convenient that they came forward after the accused couldn’t defend themselves.

The Palestinians have permission to lie based on Hudaibiya agreement.
Al-Ghazali is one of the most famous and respected Muslim theologians of all time. “When it is possible to achieve an aim by lying and not by telling the truth, it is permissible to lie if attaining the goal is permissible.”

I’m a realist. I don’t believe there will ever be co-existence between Israel and Palestine. It’s almost inborn that the new generation is made sure to hate and kill Jews. Did you know that there was never in the bible that mentions Palestine. They never existed in name because it was made up.

After crushing the Bar Kokhba revolt, the Roman Emperor Hadrian applied the name Syria Palestina to the entire region, that had formerly included Judea province. Hadrian probably chose a name that revived the ancient name of Philistia
(Palestine), combining it with that of the neighboring province of
Syria, in an attempt to suppress Jewish connection to the land, although
the actual Philistines from which the name derives had disappeared from history during the Neo-Assyrian Empire (911-605 BC).[4][7][8] The city of Aelia Capitolina was built by the emperor Hadrian on the ruins of Jerusalem. The capital of the enlarged province remained in Antiochia.

Trump should investigate organization funding of the nyt, the wapo, cnn, msnbc, etc, etc, etc. We already know they are media with a daily agenda of leftism but lets find out if there is other funding besides corporations.
