Image of Terrorism the Media Will Never Share
It has been argued for years that the media typically focus on images
from Iraq and the war on terror which paint American and Israeli
military in a bad light while always presenting the enemy as
victims.
The Shabakat Falastin Lilhiwar online forum, which is associated with
the Hamas website, has posted a photo of a little girl in a combat
vest and an Al-Qassam Brigades headband, captioning it, "Have you seen
the new child martyr who will soon shake Israel [to the core]?"
The message accompanying the photo states that the little girl "is
part of the Muslim generation which will go down in history [as a
generation]... that refused to [accept] humiliation and defeat."

Think you'll see this picture at the New York Times or on any of the
evening news broadcasts any time soon?
I wouldn't hold your breath.
