"A minister mocked the activists"

No Israel bound and tortured the activists. This wasn't a single minister. It's a coordinated attempt to pin it all on a singular person which is obviously false.

Previous flotilla coverage has been hyper positive of Israel. You wouldn't know German journalist Anna Liedtke was raped if you read Reuters.

    Bellow there are two seperate events. They are related in some ways, but they are still 2 separate events happening at different points in time:

    1. Israel bound and tortured the activists.
    2. A minister posts a video of himself where he mocks the activists in point 1.

    Because they are two seperate events happening at different times, journalists will write seperate articles with separate headlines.

    The one in your post was about event number 2. But there are other articles about event number 1:

    Western media tends to have a pro-Israel bias. Most people here are aware of this. The issue is you are doing an incredibly bad job at getting that point across to the point of absurdity..
