Why not, "New blow to Gaza peace deal as Hamas still hasn't returned the body of hostage Ran Gvili," @IrishTimes.com?
Hamas hasn't fulfilled its obligations under the ceasefire agreement. How about holding the terrorist org accountable instead of solely blaming Israel?

New year, same ol' whitewashing of terrorism.
Instead of focusing on Marwan Barghouti's history of terrorism and incitement, @NPR's interview with his son practically turned the arch-terrorist into a saint.
This wasn't journalism, it was publicly-funded PR for a terrorist.

Zohran Mamdani has "demurred," has he, @washingtonpost.com?
Actually, he believes in the end of Israel as a Jewish state and supports the antisemitic BDS movement.
Rather than demurring on the question, he's made himself crystal clear. So stop whitewashing his hatred of Israel.

Note to Lara Marlowe: Israel never "carpet-bombed" Gaza; every air strike on terror infrastructure was targeted with precision weapons.
And humanitarian aid is not blocked; 4,200 aid trucks are entering Gaza weekly.
Just another day of lies and hyperbole from @IrishTimes.com.

NPR insinuates that Israel wants needy Gazans to suffer. It wasn’t an arbitrary decision: Israel wants to prevent Hamas from continuing to manipulate aid groups to further its war aims.
This is why headline framing matters.

Mark Weiss is reporting from Jerusalem. Yet, according to @IrishTimes.com, it's Tel Aviv making all the capital moves.
Forget recognition of Somaliland. How about ending the use of Tel Aviv as a metonym for Israel's government and start recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital?

These were not "prisoner-exchange operations."
They were exchanges of Palestinian prisoners for Israeli hostages. They aren't the same.
Shame on ABC News (Australia) & France24 for republishing @AFP.com's immoral equivalence.

Ran Gvili was a special unit police officer killed defending civilians on Oct. 7. His body is still being held in Gaza in violation of the ceasefire, drawing limited media coverage and little international attention. Silence is a choice.

"Israel hasn't upheld their end of the ceasefire agreement," according to SkyNews's Yousra Elbagir.
No mention whatsoever of Hezbollah's failure to disarm or its efforts to rebuild and reassert itself in southern Lebanon in breach of the ceasefire agreement.

According to the photographer's description, everything around this woman "reflected the dire situation that Palestinian families were enduring."
Except it didn't. And @theguardian.com even added the caveat at the bottom. But this was still one of their photos of the year. Shameful.

Nearly one year after her release, Romi Gonen is speaking about sexual assaults she endured in Hamas captivity, including abuse by a man brought to provide medical care. What happened is documented. Whether it’s acknowledged is a choice.

The scare quotes weren't enough for UPI. It had to deem it a "so-called" terror attack.
And with the perpetrator "allegedly" killing the Israeli victims, could UPI do anything more to whitewash terror?

An order to respond forcefully. A curfew. Arrest raids.
All framed as "military retaliation."
Misrepresenting IDF counterterror operations as acts of vengeance is how France24 delegitimizes preventing terrorist attacks against Israeli Jews.

Sickening from @news.sky.com. The released Palestinians were prisoners, not "hostages."
There is no moral equivalence between them and the kidnapped Israelis held by terrorists in the tunnels of Gaza.
If you can't tell the difference, you shouldn't call yourselves journalists.

No, @thetimes.com. Tel Aviv did not decide to close the Israeli embassy in Dublin. Israel's government, including its foreign ministry, is located in Israel's capital, Jerusalem.
Stop using Tel Aviv as a metonym for Israel's capital or government and correct the error.

This AP wire story was sent to thousands of international media outlets. But it was covered by almost none.
Because Palestinians demonstrating their intolerance towards minorities spoils the narrative.
Now imagine the global media outrage if this were about 3 Israelis...

No, because the data and imagery used by @CNN.com to support that narrative distort reality and mislead audiences. 🧵

Israel extends order to close foreign broadcasters.
Alarmist from BBC News? Yes.
This isn’t a random press crackdown - it targets outlets that spread false reports that endanger civilians.
In practice: Al Jazeera, not Western media. 🧵

Israel makes no apologies for exercising sovereignty over its eternal capital, Jerusalem.
But, @news.sky.com, please explain what "parts of the West Bank" have been annexed. They haven't. Don't quote "international law" if you have no idea what it means in practice.

Wrong, @IrishTimes.com 600-800 aid trucks are entering Gaza daily. Only about 20% of the humanitarian aid is delivered via the UN, while countries, additional international orgs & the private sector provide the rest.
