UPDATE: In response to communication from CAMERA, both TIME and Times of Israel correct Associated Press copy which erroneously cited Tel Aviv as shorthand for Israel. Both media outlets now correctly refer to Jerusalem as Israel's capital.
In this second correction of an English-language mistranslation this week, Haaretz clarifies in print and online that an Israeli airstrike did not hit the Rafah tent encampment where secondary explosions started a deadly fire.
From citing unreliable casualty figures to implicitly adopting the Hamas narrative, the news agency has shown an anti-Israel slant, CAMERA's Tamar Sternthal writes in Times of Israel.
"Gaza strikes back at Israel after enduring months of war" was the United Press International headline whose relationship to reality mirrors that of George Lucas' "The Empire Strikes Back" science fiction favorite.
CAMERA prompts correction after Haaretz erroneously reported in English (and not Hebrew) that Israel closed the Rafah Crossing. Egypt, not Israel, closed the Gaza-Egypt crossing.
Journalists have often contrasted the fighting in Gaza with the American fighting in Iraq. They have often done so misleadingly. We take a closer look.
CNN has corrected the false claim that, “the International Court of Justice says it’s ‘plausible’ Israel is committing genocide” in Gaza three times already, yet a May 15 article repeats it again.
As CAMERA tells the Washington Examiner, the recent death of Ebrahim Raisi, the president of Iran, in a helicopter crash won’t change much. In the Islamic Republic, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has the final say, and men like Raisi are but his servants. The regime and its ambitions—to destroy Israel and remove the U.S. from the Middle East—will live on.
AP conceals that Egypt refuses to coordinate with Israel on the transfer of aid, thereby preventing the passage of food through Rafah crossing into the Gaza Strip. By falsely holding Israel responsible for the reported food shortage, AP piles on to the tampered evidence upon which the ICC has built its whole rotten case.
CAMERA prompts correction of a Los Angeles Times article which inaccurately reported that "Hamas had accepted terms of a cease-fire." As the U.S. State Department made explicitly clear: "Hamas did not accept a ceasefire proposal."
