Did a Hamas lie find its way into a Washington Post headline?

Gee, what are the odds that the mainstream media would swallow uncritically Hamas propaganda?

Meryl Yourish has the details (thanks to James).

LOL if you can’t blame it on Bush, blame it on Israel…The Washington Post has always been a sad little paper.

If Israel had rejected a truce it would have been the only sane thing to have done. This should be total war for total elimination of Hamas, not neutralizing or crippling it for a while but physical elimination for good.

Just another example demonstrating why the term "journalistic integrity" has pretty much become an oxymoron.

Agree with Wellington, journalistic integrity is a joke. No one should rely anymore on what is reported in MSM.

The propaganda machines are in full force. Now that Israeli patrol boats rammed a private vessel carrying aid to the Palestinians, We will have to hear from the left wing loons who where aboard that boat such as former Congresswoman Cynthia(how dare you ask for my I.D. in the Capitol) Mckinney. Never mind that had been warned several times to not enter the waters off of Gaza.

The aid that goes into Gaza daily would dwarf this boats aid at about a 1000 to 1 in support for the Palestites who reside there. The Palestites in Gaza and the West Bank are all about attacking Israel, they live for it day after day,they want to be martyrs, for their great antisemitic cause celeb that is driven by the Hamas Charter , Has Cynthia Mckinney read it and if she did would she be appalled/ If not she should be as should the likes of our weakest President Jimmy Carter ,three time 'dhimmi of the year award winner"they .
