Bethlehem Beyond the Wall, Media Hypocrisy and More

Bethlehem Beyond the Wall, Hypocrisy and More

by Mazin Qumsiyeh - qumsiyeh.org


February 16, 2018

Hypocrisy in the Western world becomes more obvious by the day. For example, there's a debate about Russian interference in US elections but this is minuscule compared to Israeli Zionist interventions shaping US elections (a topic not up for debate).

Another example: Media and politicians debate mental issues and send prayers and thoughts to victims of mass shootings by whites that kill far more Americans than anyone else.

Compare that coverage with any act by a Muslim which is labeled a terrorist act that threatens America. No one talks about the Zionist controlled major media outlets and Hollywood (and even games) that promote violence and mass killings.

And with over 20 trillion in debt not much discussed, there is not one word that over 3 trillion of that debt was created to serve Israel (due to the shadowy Israel lobby). These are just examples that came to mind this week and people will forget about these soon and wait for the next disaster to again watch mindlessly as the media manipulates thinking away from the real issues. Some of those are listed below (like the 20+ trillion debt).
