If you are unclear as to who the Houthis are; if you are wondering why they are trying to block international shipping lanes; if you are confused as to why the US government has relabeled them a ‘terrorist organization,’ then watch this video.
Israel is one of the most militarized societies in the world.
Military service is compulsory for all graduating high school seniors. Everyone remains a member of the military reserves and is eligible for a call back into active service well into middle-age.
Israeli dissident, Miko Peled, son of a famous Israeli general and former soldier himself, explains how this militarization of civil society affects Israel’s culture and indoctrinates its people.
Krystal Ball at Breaking Point news offers a penetrating look at anti-Palestinian media bias.
The way in which people and events are described in news reports tells us a lot about the prejudices, likes and dislikes of news producers and reporters.

Check out the evidence offered below. It’s titled “Study Reveals How Media Whitewashes Genocide”:
This week was marked by the opening of South Africa’s genocide case against Israel in the International Court of Justice.
Many international experts in the field of genocide studies agree — Israel is committing both genocide and ethnic cleansing against the 2.3 million Palestinian people living in Gaza.
Whereas many US news outlets covered Israel’s defense against South Africa’s charges, very few offered coverage of South Africa’s case for the prosecution. Another example of western bias when discussing Israel.

Watch and hear some of the abundant evidence presented for yourself:
What happens to a society where the vast majority endorse their government’s policy of committing genocide against a subject people?

Gideon Levy is an award-winning Israeli journalist who provides a chilling description of how Israeli society-at-large now illustrates such corruption as the people of Gaza are exterminated.
