Ben-Dror Yemini writes in YNet News:

The West’s progressive circles have been waging an incitement campaign against Israel and Zionism for several years now. Many of the West’s media outlets define what Israel is doing to the Palestinians in general, and in Gaza in particular, as genocide, crimes against humanity and an intentional murder of children and civilians.

 

Blatant statements against Zionism, Jews and Israel, which usually include blatant and intimidating lies, are considered part of the circle of enlightenment and progress. They are given a platform in newspapers which are considered to be serious.

 

In the Independent newspaper, Israel was labeled as “a community of child killers.” According to the Newsweek website, Jews endanger world peace.

 

The average Muslim viewer asks himself, rightfully, how are Western countries letting this crime go on. Why aren’t there much more sanctions against Israel? Why is the United States bombing the Islamic State rather than Israel? Why are economic ties between Israel and Western countries only growing stronger?
