https://honestreporting.com/innocent-teen-or-armed-terrorist-new-york-post-cant-tell-the-difference/
Meet Mahdi Hashash, who was killed during clashes between Palestinian gunmen and Israeli forces protecting a group of Jewish worshipers visiting Joseph’s Tomb on the outskirts of the West Bank city of Nablus in the early hours of Wednesday morning.
Mahdi Hashash
Hashash was apparently placing an explosive device when Israeli troops opened fire. He died after his bomb detonated, spraying Hashash with shrapnel.
The Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades immediately claimed Hashash as one of their own.
Hashash was 15 years old.
Does Hashash’s young age diminish the fact that he was an armed combatant and an active member of a terrorist organization?
It shouldn’t.
The Associated Press, however, ran its initial story under the headline “Palestinian teen, man killed by Israeli forces in West Bank” before updating to the more neutral “Palestinians say 2 killed by Israeli forces in West Bank.”

Unfortunately, it appears that the New York Post didn’t get the memo.

Simply stating that a “Palestinian teen” was killed by Israeli forces is not only misleading but also frames the story as one where an Israeli aggressor has killed an innocent Palestinian youth. At worst, it falsely accuses Israel of being a child killer.

It’s reasonable to ask questions as to how a 15-year-old becomes an armed terrorist, including addressing incitement in the Palestinian media and education system. But it should in no way present Mahdhi Hashash as an innocent teen.

HonestReporting has requested the New York Post update its headline to reflect the reality of the story.

More MSNBC Misinformation: Dispelling Peter Beinart's 'Ethnostate' Smear (VIDEO)


Commenting on the rise of right-wing antisemitism in the United States, MSNBC commentator Peter Beinart deemed it appropriate to bring up Israel, accusing the Jewish state of being an "ethnostate."

Beinart's claim is, of course, wholly inaccurate. In fact, representatives of Israel's Arab minority played a key role in the most recent coalition, and the Arab vote could once again be decisive in Tuesday's election.

Why is the European Union Funding Palestinian Propaganda Tours to the West Bank?
 
A group of 11 European journalists was recently invited on a six-day tour of Jerusalem and the West Bank in a trip that was ostensibly aimed at briefing them on the kind of aid the European Union and its member states give to the Palestinian people.

Organized by the Office for the European Union Representative in Jerusalem, the EU-funded invitation was only extended to those journalists who were prepared to submit a one-page declaration that explained why they wanted to participate and how they would use the trip to inform their work.

The request, which appeared to be an indirect way of pre-vetting future published pieces, was an early indicator of what kind of press trip this would turn out to be: a fully-fledged, pro-Palestinian propaganda tour.

Media Print Viral Libel That Palestinian Boy 'Died of Fear' After Being 'Chased' by IDF
 
 
The September 29 death of Rayan Suleiman, a 7-year-old Palestinian child who died under unknown circumstances following Israeli military activity in the West Bank town of Teqoa, has dominated international headlines in recent days.

Responding to unsubstantiated Palestinian accusations that IDF soldiers "chased the boy to death," US State Department deputy spokesperson Vedant Patel has called for a "thorough and immediate investigation."

The IDF goes to great lengths to avoid harming civilians, and every innocent casualty is a tragedy. Yet the media, in their apparent quest to promote a "blame Israel first" narrative, have failed to uphold their professional obligation to scrutinize the facts.
