New York Times “corrects” piece calling Palestinian Authority’s jihad terror payments a “far-right conspiracy”
The New York Times corrected a piece Monday that called the Palestinian Authority’s very real practice of giving payments to the families of terrorists a “far-right conspiracy.”
The Leftist establishment media has created empires while delivering fake news on a routine basis. It is adept at labeling falsehood truth and reality a “far right conspiracy.”
It is a well-established fact that the PA issues stipends, often referred to as “martyr payments,” to the families of those who are killed or imprisoned after attacking Israeli targets….The PA doled out more than $347 million to families of terrorists who had murdered Jews, increasing the amount to $403 million this year…..This is an item written in to the Palestinian Authority’s budget, not a ‘far-right conspiracy.’
The media’s unyielding resistance to the truth about jihad terror is peculiar, particularly considering the devastating impact of jihad activity upon victims of such terror. The brazenness of the New York Times in denying this truth demonstrates a disregard for journalistic integrity and is an insult to the intelligence of readers. Did it not occur to the New York Times’ editors that they might be called out on such a big lie?
Denying Muslim no-go zones was another favorite of many leftist media outlets. They referred to these violent, sharia-patrolled zones as “conspiracies” of the “alt-right,” the “far right,” the “xenophobes” and other such nonsense. These danger zones have proliferated throughout areas of Europe that were once respectable and peaceful. Photos of car fires and police in riot gear in those areas are now commonplace.
The number of victims of jihad in the Middle East, Europe and elsewhere continues to rise, in part because of leftist enablers, apologists and appeasers.
“NY Times Corrects Piece Calling Palestinian Terror Payments a ‘Far-Right Conspiracy,’” Alex Griswold, Washington Free Beacon, April 24, 2018:
The New York Times corrected a piece Monday that called the Palestinian Authority’s very real practice of giving payments to the families of terrorists a “far-right conspiracy.”A Saturday Times profile of Campbell Brown, the head of news partnerships at Facebook, questioned whether the former journalist could help build better relations with media outlets, given allegations the social network spreads “fake news.”“Ms. Brown wants to use Facebook’s existing Watch product – a service introduced in 2017 as a premium product with more curation that has nonetheless been flooded with far-right conspiracy programming like ‘Palestinians Pay $400 Million Pensions For Terrorist Families,’” the Times reported.That sentence was criticized by Israeli and Jewish journalists who pointed out it is a well-established fact that the PA issues stipends, often referred to as “martyr payments,” to the families of those who are killed or imprisoned after attacking Israeli targets.“As those of us who are in the reality based community know, the Palestinian Authority’s financial support of terrorists and their families is very, very far from a conspiracy, far-right or otherwise…,” wrote Liel Leibovitz at Tablet. “Read the real news, and you’ll learn that, in 2017, the PA doled out more than $347 million to families of terrorists who had murdered Jews, increasing the amount to $403 million this year.”“This is an item written in to the Palestinian Authority’s budget, not a ‘far-right conspiracy,'” tweeted The Jerusalem Post‘s Lahav Harkov. “You can quibble over the use of the word terrorists vs. prisoners (and I would defend my word choice) but not the fact that they’re making the payments.”…..
