HUMAN first, then a proud IRANIAN

This blog represents the way I see some of the most significant events impacting the world and its citizens. This blog also represents how I react to the events as a member of humanity with a voice, a determined voice that insists to be heard. The voice of an Iranian who loves his country but his priority is humanity; humanity without border. I will say what I want to say, when I want to say it, and how I want to say it, but I will never lie. I will also listen; I promise.

Stupidity or personal benefit?

One must be either stupid or benefit from this injustice:
This is how an Israeli air strike was reported by CBC (yes Canadiuan CBC):
An Israeli airstrike in the Gaza Strip have killed four Palestinians, including two who were members of the military wing of Hamas.

And a few days ago, when a suicide bomber blew himself up and killed many Israelis, it was reported as: " A suicide bomber killed 21 Including 5 Israeli children.

When Israelis kill, the emphesis is on specifying the number of Hamas people who were killed, and When Suicide bombers kill, the emphesis is on the number of civilians, particularly children, who are killed.

Also, this is very typical: "That airstrike came in response to a Hamas suicide bombing that killed 21 people on a Jerusalem bus two days before.

But when Suicide bombers kill, They ignore saying this: "During this six-week period of "relative quiet," however, some 17 Palestinians were killed and at least 59 injured by Israeli occupation
soldiers and settlers...". and it does not call it "in response to" or "in retaliation".

Sometimes you can see the ugly effect of CNN and Fox on CBC as well. It is sad though, because this is Canadian and not American and naturally, you would expect better than that from it.

The media is only creating hatred by what it does. This, in long run would just help craetion of more terrorism. As I said, One must be either stupid or benefit from this and accept it..

Why this is typical? well, it was posted 2 days ago (see "North American media ignores Israeli crimes", posted on August 22).
