Even as Iran's long-voiced threats have come to fruition, with much of Israel's entire population running to shelters every few hours to seek protection from the regime's mass attacks targeting civilians, AP perseveres with its well-honed practice of whitewashing Iran's genocidal intentions.
The Associated Press says it advances the power of facts, CAMERA writes in the Algemeiner.

On the heels of a CAMERA exposé of antisemitic social media posts by four journalists working for France24, the French state-owned news network has announced the suspension of the journalists and is currently investigating their social media pages.
