"David Bernstein: The Washington Post is just doing straight up Hamas propaganda now.
Headline: Israel's War on Gaza Separates Palestinian Babies from their Mothers.
- Start with the first clause, "Israel's War on Gaza."
- A somewhat less biased would be "Israeli's War against Hamas in Gaza." A relatively neutral headline would start "Israel-Hamas War..."
- Non-neutral but still accurate headlines could be "Hamas's Refusal to Release Hostages and Surrender" or "War Started by Hamas Massacre..."
- But the Post went with the most inflammatory, anti-Israel version.
Second, while it's really sad when mothers and babies get separated, assumedly this happens in any war when people have to flee the warzone.
- Has the Post *ever* had a story focusing specifically on the separation of mothers and babies in any other war, including wars involving the US?
I'll put all my money on "no."
Like I said, straight up Hamas propaganda."
