If you think that Israel is justified to carry out their murderous attacks on hundreds of un-armed men, women, and children, it is certainly due to a bias forced upon an all-to-happy-to-comply "mainstream media" so long as they can keep their despicable jobs. The woman in the picture below believes that anyone with moral principals would seek to stop a genocide before worrying about his/her job. Please watch this inspiring video. However, this is now the third DemocracyNow! interview that I've come across to have been censored by way of blocking the function of the embed code. Accordingly, you will need to watch the original by clicking the link below the picture.

MSNBC’s Sole Palestinian Voice Rula Jebreal Takes on Pro-Israeli Gov’t Bias at Network & in US Media

Topics   Gaza, Media Analysis, Israel & Palestine

Guests  Rula Jebreal, Palestinian author and political analyst who frequently appears on MSNBC. She worked for many years as a broadcast journalist in Italy, where she also covered the Middle East. She is the author of Miral, which was made into a film by Julian Schnabel.

A week after public outrage helped force NBC’s reversal of a decision to pull veteran reporter Ayman Mohyeldin out of Gaza, the sole Palestinian contributor to sister network MSNBC has publicly criticized its coverage of the Israel-Palestine conflict. "We are disgustingly biased when it comes to this issue," Rula Jebreal said Monday on MSNBC’s Ronan Farrow Daily, citing a disproportionate amount of Palestinian voices and a preponderance of Israeli government officials and supporters. Jebreal joins us to discuss her decision to speak out against MSNBC and her broader criticism of the corporate media’s Israel-Palestine coverage. An author and political analyst who worked for many years as a broadcast journalist in Italy, Jebreal also shares her personal story as a Palestinian with Israeli citizenship who is married to a Jewish man and has a Jewish sister.

U.S. AMBASSADOR TO THE UNITED NATIONS SUSAN RICE -- BASED ON HER OWN WORDS IN AN ANALOGOUS CONTEXT (REGARDING SYRIA) -- SHOULD BE SUPPORTING THE U.N. RESOLUTION CONDEMNING THE CURRENT ISRAELI ATTACK ON GAZA, NOT OPPOSING IT.

OTHERWISE, THERE IS STRONG EVIDENCE THAT ISRAEL PREFERS PERIODICALLY ASSAULTING DEFENSELESS GAZA -- AN OCCUPIED TERRITORY, NOT A SOVEREIGN STATE -- TO NEGOTIATING PEACE WITH HAMAS.
