woops! we just put these two completely disconnected events in the same headline! how clumsy of us!
That might only get the silver medal in today's Most Despicable NYT Article competition. This one implies that every bombing of a school is justified:
Unwilling to Be Human Shields, Some Gazans Turn Gunmen Away From Shelters
(Different headline in the archived version, but that's what it says on the front page right now)
BREAKING: Activity recorded at astronomical observatory days prior to devastating meteor strike now linked to Hamas
God the "militant" is such ratfuck wording. "Military center" implies an official organization. "Militant center" implies Palestine is training civilians to do terrorism.
Actually it makes perfect sense. If you don't recognize your adversaries as legitimate states, then they don't have any official organizations, meaning any fighting back is automatically terrorism.
