(Jerusalem Post) Benjamin Weinthal - In a column entitled "Middle East Coverage in the German Media: Perpetrators Turned into Victims," Julian Reichelt wrote in Bild on Sunday, "No other country, which suffers under permanent terror, is reported on in Germany in the cynical, ice-cold and heartless manner like Israel is." "Metal detectors at the entry to the Temple Mount are described as injuring religious feelings. And the German media briskly spreads this fairy tale as an Israeli attack on religious freedom." "When terrorists attack soldiers, [the headline] reads: 'Two Palestinians killed by Israeli military action.' That is as if one would write about the terrorist from Nice: 'Truck driver shot by police.'" "Israel is on the front line in the battle against a murderous ideology that envisions annihilation of us....We Germans should back the Israelis in this battle instead of expecting that they nicely allow themselves to be destroyed."
