CAMERA Op-Ed: The Washington Post, Palestinians and the Super Bowl

CAMERA Op-Ed: Marc Lamont Hill and the Soviet Union’s Ongoing War against Israel

In their recent reports, both Foreign Policy Magazine and The Washington Post omit UNRWA’s ties to terror groups and promotion of anti-Jewish violence. UNRWA, as CAMERA highlighted in a recent Op-Ed, has a long and sordid history—and the media should report it, not cover it up.
