Reuters' Selective Lens Demonizes Israel on Independence Day
[CAMERA] Tamar Sternthal - Reuters photographs marking Israel's 61st Independence Day send a concise message: Israel should not exist and Israelis are raising their children to be war-mongers. Reuters photographers, dispatched across the country, did not capture images of Tel Aviv revelers marking 100 years of their city, no sign of the packed beaches, no pictures of the family outings to parks, and no photos of official ceremonies. Instead, Reuters photos featured members of Neturei Karta, a fringe anti-Zionist movement, demonstrating against the State of Israel and burning an Israeli flag, Palestinians demonstrating to commemorate Nakba Day, and a Jewish child holding an assault rifle at a military exhibition. Even the photo of fireworks over Jerusalem showed the Muslim Dome of the Rock in the foreground.
