Roundup Of Palestinian Stories NOT Covered At HuffPost

.

This regularly-updated thread will be a companion to The Positive Stories Re Israel That Are NOT Covered At HuffPost.

The purpose of both threads is to help expose:

• What HuffPost blogger and noted legal scholar Alan Dershowitz (and others have) described as the site's "hard-left bias" on Israeli affairs
  
  
• Some indications of why so many anti-Israel propagandists and Palestinian/Islamist apologists gravitate to, and comment at HuffPost

The question of why HuffPost is so biased in its "reporting" and the news stories it features, and why it routinely approves comments containing vicious blood libels and propaganda against Israel and Jews*, is a question that only its management can answer. Will any media figure pose this question to them? Who knows --- time will tell.
(*examples here, here, here and elsewhere on HB)

This thread will specifically focus on readily-available news stories that discuss the grim reality of Palestinian conduct, beliefs, etc., which HuffPost refuses/fails to feature, least of all as prominently as it features stories that invariable reflect and foment anti-Israel propaganda.
