Can you imagine if these were the headlines after the London terror attacks?
These parody headlines would be funny if they didn’t hit so close to home: they are taken directly from real headlines about terror attacks in Israel.
As the world mourns with London and also with Manchester, we remember that the world rarely mourns with Israel: instead, headlines mourn the death of Israel’s attackers and calls their violence, “alleged,” while diligently avoiding the word, “terrorism.”
Why the double standard?
Special thanks to Daniel Sass of sassvideo.com for developing this clever concept! Despite the humor, he really hits on a serious and troubling issue: that most media report terror against Israelis in a way that would be obviously unacceptable if reported anywhere else in the world.
