    Good for the and for being direct about where this vile hatred can be found, and who is spewing it. More of this candor by the press, please.

    One of the most unbelievable things I’ve ever seen! Even in death Shireen Abu Akleh is attacked by Israeli forces. Police attack pallbearers carrying the coffin of a journalist who was shot in the face by Israeli soldiers. Why? Because the coffin is draped in the Palestinian flag
