With an estimated 425 dead and 2,000 wounded in Israel’s attack on Gaza, Israel persists in its PR effort to sell the attacks targeting Hamas, the majority political party of Palestine, aided by US-Israeli policy. The sell is not complete without the continued blockade of the free press, despite a court order.

Representative Press – “Israel Attacks Gaza, Silence from Mainstream Media about Israeli Violations of International Law” (3:51):

Israel continues to target mosques, kill children without rockets, and prepare for a ground invasion on the Gazan people.

The Real News Network (TRNN) – “Rafah – Report from the ground” – 1 Jan 09 (9:20):

Conveniently, Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak’s Labor Party has gained popularity since the Gaza Massacre began going into Israel’s elections.
