The story which played out last week in Morningside Heights bore an uncanny resemblance to an unforgettable bloody incident which transpired Sept. 29, 2000 in Jerusalem at the outbreak of the Second Intifada. It’s far from clear that journalists have gleaned the necessary lessons from the misreporting of Tuvia Grossman’s ordeal.
A CNN graphic, and the preceding text, suggests that the daily average number of trucks bringing food into Gaza now is less than half of what it was before October 7. In fact, the truth is precisely the opposite. Substantially more trucks are bringing food into Gaza today than were a year ago.
In the world of journalism, there are understandable errors, and then there are the types of errors that make you wonder whether the journalists are living in the same reality.
Under the guise of advocating for Palestinian Christians, Tucker Carlson launched a two-pronged assault on American Christian support for the Jewish State.

Reuters "adds context" about Hamas' massive Oct. 7 attacks to a Facebook post which cites "the war Israel launched against Hamas." While the inclusion of Hamas' Oct. 7 atrocities is certainly a significant improvement, it should be noted that Israel didn’t “launch” a war, Hamas did.
Hamas is using hospitals for cover. And the media is covering for Hamas. Worse still, as CAMERA tells the Washington Times, a contributor for the Washington Post even cheered on the October 7th massacre.
Israel allegedly struck a building next to a consulate in Damascus. The strike took out top operatives from Iran's IRGC. And as CAMERA tells the Washington Examiner, the strike tells us much about the current state of play in the Middle East.

A recent decision by the US to abstain on a UN Security Council resolution calling for a ceasefire is a break with tradition. As CAMERA tells the Washington Times: there was a ceasefire, and Hamas broke it.
Militarily, Israel's war against Hamas and other Gaza-based proxies is going well. Indeed, the IDF has made remarkable gains. But diplomatically and politically, the post-war phase will present Israel with numerous challenges, as CAMERA tells the Washington Examiner.
