While not condoning all of Israel's actions, I gave up on the Gaza Redux thread when, IMO, it became a propaganda outlet for Hamas and the Palestinian position:

rewriting the history of the Middle East for the last 60 years

ignoring the numerous Israeli concessions over those years

ignoring the actions of Hamas since the Israeli withdrawal from Gaza

characterizing Israeli actions as human rights violations while ignoring the human rights violations of Hamas

and generalizing that US new outlets are spewing propaganda while European news outlets are not (the historically anti-Israel BBC is the worst, IMO)

Carry on.
