How the UK Media Downplay and Trivialize Hamas Terror

(Jewish Chronicle-UK) Udi Avivi - Hamas has been engaged in an ongoing terror campaign against Israel: continuously striving to infiltrate into Israel, launching incendiary devices over the border, and last weekend firing more than 200 rockets and mortar shells. The UK media has largely minimized these attacks. Headline-writers have described these activities as "protests," belittling the fact that many of the "protesters" have been carrying pipe bombs and machetes. Palestinian arsonists have attached explosives and firebombs to kites and balloons. These devices may be "homemade" and "improvised," but the attacks have caused more than 850 fires, destroying more than 6,500 acres of natural habitat and farmland. If terrorists seeking to destroy the UK were to set vast swathes of British farmland ablaze, then every newspaper in this country would devote their front pages to the attacks.
