Will the Real Palestinians Please Stand Up

What is daily life like for regular Palestinians?

Much of what you read in the mainstream media paints a picture of non-stop Palestinian suffering at the hands of Israelis. Many journalists seem to excuse even the most depraved acts as a natural consequence of unbearable suffering.

However, the reality is not what is reported in the media.

Watch this video by Corey Gil-Shuster in which Palestinians sitting in cafes, bowling alleys, and by swimming pools talk about how much they suffer. It is astonishing what they say.

The lesson?

When it comes to Israel and the Palestinians, don’t assume that the media is giving you the complete picture.
