Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

“Palestinian” deliberately drives into Israeli soldiers, Sky News headline says “Israeli border guards kill”

Jun 28, 2020 2:00 pm By Robert Spencer

This kind of manipulation happens all the time regarding the “Palestinian” jihad, and it works. Over decades, it has moved American public opinion from ardent support of Israel to a newly fashionable anti-Semitism. And the “Palestinian” jihad is just one arena in which people are doused with this propaganda.

“Sky News Headline Skews Facts About Attempted Car Ramming,” by Gidon Ben-Zvi, Honest Reporting, June 25, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

On Wednesday, a Palestinian Arab driver drove into soldiers at an Israeli checkpoint tower near Jerusalem. In response, Israeli Border Police on the scene opened fire and killed the driver.

Palestinian officials charged Israel with cold-blooded murder. According to them, the suspect, a nephew of senior Palestinian official Saeb Erekat, was simply rushing to pick up his sister and mother ahead of a family wedding later Tuesday evening.

However, security footage released by the Border Police, showing the vehicle turning sharply and speeding up abruptly when close to the soldiers, leaves little doubt as to the nature of the incident.

This is the headline from Sky News:

Horrendous headline on this article by @Stone_SkyNews.

Why is the emphasis on the response to this attack, rather than the attack itself? The man drove his car into soldiers, throwing one of them into the air. That's far more important, @SkyNews. pic.twitter.com/awe9UhAGcy

— HonestReporting (@HonestReporting) June 25, 2020

From the headline, you wouldn’t have known that Israeli soldiers were the target of a terrorist attack. Instead, Sky News buries that lead. Readers are told only that the border guards opened fire on and killed a relative of a top PLO official, with no justification mentioned….

    Greetings:

    Paraphrasing a bit of Bronx folk wisdom, I guess that we will soon be reading things like “Israeli Border Guards Kill Palestinian Who Was Just Cleaning His Knife on the Corner When 5 Jews Ran Up and Jumped on It 27 Times”

    Sky News are getting as bad as the BBC, for twisted the facts to suite their globalist agenda, and thats saying something. For those of you who don’t know, the BBC is full of left wing nutters, which is subsidized by the Bristish tax payer, who is “Forced” by law to purchase a “TV Licence” – that pays for programmes and the over the top salaries of 3rd rate presenters. Its hard to believe, but 100% true.

    Watch the security footage.

    The border guard was thrown about 10 feet.

    100% deliberate.

    NOW is the time for the BBC, ( a biased left wing, diversity loving, globalist news TV company ),… to be shut down once and for all, and made to support its self, instead of the British tax payer being “Forced” to pay for a “TV Licence” that subsidizes this rotten marxist loving propoganda tool.

    This is the same Mark Stone who reported, that Hungarian border force throws a refugee down on to a railway track, while he was holding his baby.He even shown footage of this poor refugee struggling on the lines,with the two burly hungarians.I like many others were shocked when I’d seen this footage,until I saw what really happened,and was shown the full footage.What actually took place was,this refugee grabbed the baby from his wife’s arms,and thrown himself down on to the railway lines.( he didn’t show that bit) The border force were only trying to restrain him.This is how the fake left news works.

        Palestinian good,Jew bad. Refugee good,border force bad.This is just part of their mantra,and they wont have it any other way.

        I’m not sure James,It could well be,it was a few years ago,On the Tv it didn’t show the first bit when he snatched the baby, it only shown the part with him on the track.I don’t remember her being on the track but she could of been.What I do remember is Mark Stone talking over it, as if it was the brutality of the border force.

    Quite frankly, I would have shot the shit out of him as well.
    I’m jut glad none of the cops were killed by this fool.

    The driver was also reportedly a cousin to Rutgers law professor Noura Erekat, a vicious enemy of Israel.

    “Palestinian” deliberately drives into Israeli soldiers, Sky News headline says “Israeli border guards kill”
    ………………

    Just repellent calumny.

    More supporters of Israel, who cant even report A muslim attack on Jews. They will not recommend that Jews submit to muslim violence when Jews should stand up for the truth and insist on what is right, like in Judea and Samaria. In G-d I trust.

      I wish all Jews would feel like that. My neighbours here in the States are lefties and they read the NYT and believe the Jewish homeland is an abomination. When I give them a few facts they are shocked that they don’t know. Then they read the NYT.

    Did anyone notice a dog making a fast getaway from the scene?

    The nephew is just one more terrorist that can’t ever try to kill anyone again.
