Update on the Gaza Propaganda War -- 6 PM EST

The Washington Post's website changed its photo essay and no longer shows Khalil Hamra's fake hospital shots. It even added a picture of damage done to an Israeli apartment by a Hamas Kassam rocket.

Meanwhile, the New York Times'
slide show only shows the Palestinian side of the conflict. One caption goes so far as to describe "dozens of mutilated [Palestinian] bodies," thus suggesting another atrocity committed by Israel.

Note in the New York Times' photos how many of the dead or wounded are in uniform, but the Times' captions fail to make the point that they were combatants: "Palestinians gathered around bodies [in uniform]" or "Palestinians carried an injured man [wearing camouflage trousers]."

It was the same during the previous Olmert War.
The pictures of damage to Israeli homes should have been in the media all the time prior, to explain the dangers Israel is suffering from because of the Arab terrorists.
For an example of real life, read Note from Netivot #1.
