Kristof’s libelous Israel smears: Letters – Latest News
The Issue: Nicholas Kristof’s New York Times column claiming that the IDF trains canine to rape prisoners.
It’s stunning — although not stunning — that The New York Times would publish such an unconfirmed and inflammatory article (“ ‘Mounting’ shame of Nicholas Kristof,” Douglas Murray, May 15).
A newspaper as soon as guided by the motto “All the News That’s Fit to Print” now seems to be serving partisan political agendas.
The extensively documented torture and sexual abuse suffered by the hostages held by Hamas by no means appeared to obtain the identical stage of outrage from the Times. Irresponsible reporting of this sort does actual injury.

After listening to about Kristof’s article within the Times about Israeli rape canine, I thank God the New York Post is more cautious when vetting its sources.
Arab sources have made many different accusations relating to Israel’s use of animals. They say Israelis unleashed rats and pigs to drive Palestinians out of their houses, put lethal jellyfish into the Red Sea to stop vacationers from visiting Egypt, use cows, pigeons and squirrels to spy on them and release boars educated to solely uproot Palestinian crops.

Instead of doing an investigation and reaching a conclusion, the Times usually begins with a conclusion, then fabricates details to help it. This has been performed repeatedly.
Also, interviewing Gazans is a joke: They know what is going to occur to them in the event that they inform the reality about their Hamas masters and don’t repeat their lies.

The New York Times gained a Pulitzer in 1932 for Walter Duranty’s faux protection of the Soviet Union. It gained again for reporting on the fictional Steele file. Now it wins again with duplicitous images by a Gaza-based photographer (“Hardly a moral Gray Lady,” Andrea Peyser, May 13).
At least the Times produces the world’s most interesting crossword puzzles. Consistency is all the time important.

The Issue: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s declare that the American Revolution was a struggle in opposition to billionaires.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has a warped sense of historical past (“AOC muffs US history,” May 10).
We revolted from Britain in 1776 as a result of of taxation with out illustration. To counsel the colonists revolted in opposition to billionaires is absurd.
This solely goes to show that American historical past is so uncared for by academics and college students that crack-brained theories of this kind are accepted. The Founding Fathers would have laughed themselves foolish in the event that they heard AOC.

Why is it that our legislators who appear to talk the loudest appear to know the least?
Founding Father John Hancock was thought of one of the wealthiest males in Massachusetts. He closely backed the American Revolution and particularly, George Washington’s Continental Army.
AOC may have used education in one thing different than social media earlier than turning into an educationally impoverished member of Congress.
