POPSHamas war crimes: the CNN strategy
The use of human shields, in the way Hamas uses the civilian population of Gaza, is a war crime. Every human shield that is killed by Israeli self-defense measures is the responsibility of Hamas, but you wouldn't know that from watching the media coverage. The media is being manipulated. Hamas declared war on Israel calling for its complete destruction and is interpreting protest against Israel as pro-Palestinian and therefore are emboldened to continue fighting. The author of this report is decidedly pro-Israel, but the fact remains that Israel is using their technologically advanced military against what amounts to sticks and stones, by comparison. This situation is the result of Israel forcing Palestinians to live in a cramped strip of land and blockading food and medical supplies into the area. When Hamas fired their unsophisticated rockets at Israel as protest, Israel fought back with a lopsided and heavy-handed offense. This is what the world is protesting against.

POPSU.S. refuses to aid Israel in attacking Iran, for now The U.S. is worried about ‘appearing’ to help attack Iran for fear of being kicked out of Iraq. For if the U.S. were to be kicked out then they would not be able to build military bases needed to protect their oil interests nor would they be able to reach Iran when the inevitable attack does come. Besides, the U.S. does not ‘help’ other countries start wars, they would rather start them on their own. The U.S. is not worried about suffering ramifications from attacking a country that is not attacking us, because, well, that ship has sailed. The U.S. is working on “sabotaging Iran’s nuclear ambitions” because we remain unconvinced that Iran’s nuclear program is only for energy purposes.

POPSCNN busted running phony Gaza propaganda, yanks video Gee, it’s hard to admit when you’re wrong. Little Green Footballs exposed the fraud, so CNN pulled the video from its website without explanation. However, the propaganda lives on in the form of a text-only story. The video can be viewed on the clipped website.

POPSIs that a real Mosque or is that a Hamas command center? Israeli security officials say the mosques have long been known as centers of Islamist indoctrination and vicious anti-Israeli and anti-Jewish incitement. They are being used as weapons stores, command centers, as cover for networks of tunnels - in short, Hamas military positions. Again, there has been no frenzied rush by Gaza's clerics to dispute this devastating accusation.

POPSHuffington Post: Israeli-Occupied Territory Huffington Post has ‘sold out’ to main stream media and can no longer be considered an alternative media outlet. It is all well and good to rant about corporate greed when your publication is small and financially barely getting by, but when you accept a $25 million “investment” and give a board seat to one of the investors, you instantly become a part of what you have been railing against. Proof of her selling out is in her coverage of the Gaza issue.

POPSIran orders Muslims to defend Palestinians
Ayatollah Khamenei, can you suspend your blind hatred for all things not you and entertain this logic? “defend the … defenseless people in Gaza”? Hamas began lobbing rockets into Israel after agreeing to a cease-fire. How about holding them to account for their part in triggering this latest atrocity? “martyr”? You are encouraging the violence and dishonor of those who chose to break a cease-fire agreement formed to finally bring an end to this senseless feud, by telling others that they will be held in a position of honor for committing violence. And you claim that God is on your side? A just God does not condone the killing of anyone. Saying the Zionists are attacking innocents in a barbaric manner? This is very hypocritical. Hamas are not ‘innocents’ and you sanction ‘barbaric’ methods to enforce your own laws. I don’t condone violence from either side. Just agree to disagree, and stop the killing. Point blame all you want, but stop the killing.
