Is anyone else considering canceling their New York Times subscription over extreme bias in covering the Mid East?

No Hamas, no Palestinian terror = no retaliation for terror which involved the rape, murder, and kidnapping of Israelis. Bleat all you want about past grievances over land, there's no possible justification for genocidal terror directed at Israel.

Most people do blame Hamas and Israel for continuing their murderous ways and they're sick and tired of hearing about conflicts in the Middle East. The idiots who pick sides in these conflicts have the loudest voices and therefore you're left to believe those loudest voices are speaking for the majority. They aren't.

I grew up in Manhattan and the Times was always considered a Zionist paper. Many jefes there served or had their kids serve in the IDF, including David Brooks.

If you'd prefer not to read opinions which differ from those you already hold, then by all means don't read them. If you're open-minded, read and reflect. You may not change your mind, or you might, but exposure to alternative perspectives is intellectually healthy; deliberately ignoring other points of view is intellectually dishonest - you don't have to agree with anyone else, but it's conducive to informed discourse to know why other people hold opinions different from your own.

This is the only sensible and sane post in this ridiculous thread. You people really have lost it. But so predictable - in this age, people only allow in news and opinions that renforce their own beliefs. Willful ignorance and refusal to consider or even hear of any other viewpoints. We’re all doomed.

+1 except for the we’re all doomed part.

People have always been this moronic. The only new aspect of this is that social media now gives them the means to share their foolishness with the rest of us.

Most ortho consider it too anti Israel

And the NYT doubles down on its bias with an insulting headline about Palestinian statehood.

Zionists created hamas. Hamas would not exist if not for Israel stealing land and killing innocent families that lives there

Peace for zionists will only come when Zionists leave middle East and go to where they came from

You’ve already proven that you can’t read, so what does it matter?

if only Hamas would surrender...

Those skeletal children are all Hamas? Who would’ve thought?

The elementary school age kids who got killed by IDF while waiting in line for drinking water were clearly terrorists.

These people are ghouls. They know these children are innocent and needlessly suffering and dying, but they don’t care. They are genocide apologists. The flip way they talk about them is sickening.

American Jews are causing this tragedy.

the US would not be giving so much support to Israel/Zionism without American Jews driving the financing.

will not find this info from WAPO or nyt

Under the guise of charitable donations, tens of millions of dollars are regularly sent to Israel in the form of "tax-deductible gifts for Jewish settlement in the West Bank and East Jerusalem," the New York Times reported. Much of the money, falsely promoted as donations for educational and religious purposes, often finds its way to funding and purchasing housing for illegal settlers, "as well as guard dogs, bulletproof vests, rifle scopes and vehicles to secure (illegal Jewish) outposts deep in occupied (Palestinian) areas."

Quite often, US money ends up in the Israeli government's coffers under deceptive pretenses. For example, the latest Stimulus Package includes $50 million to fund the Nita M. Lowey Middle East Partnership for Peace Funds, supposedly to provide investments in "people-to-people exchanges and economic cooperation ... between Israelis and Palestinians with the goal of supporting a negotiated and sustainable two-state solution."

Actually, such money serves no particular purpose, since Washington and Tel Aviv endeavor to ensure the demise of a negotiated peace agreement and work hand-in-hand to kill the now defunct two-state solution.

Israel knows the Epstein files backward and forward, too. Guaranteed. They have dirt on every single U.S. politician who carries water for them.

This piece was disgusting. Truly.

Jack Shafer wrote this a couple of years ago and it still makes me laugh:

“The Times has a major advantage over its competition in marketing its fun and food verticals because it conveys high social status in some circles. The Times’ cultural identity is so refined, you could slap its NYT logo on some substandard puzzle and some people would still be convinced they were partaking of brilliance.”

Same here. This obsession with the Palestinians to the exclusion of any, and every, other domestic and international issue is so adolescent.

NP. I’ve considered canceling over its absolute refusal to report honestly about transgender issues. The propping up of horrifyingly bad science is just too much. It’s only been recently, when forced by the fact that the evidence is overwhelming, that it’s been slightly honest.
