    I subscribe to the WP so I looked up the article about Hind Rajab. The app won’t let me copy/paste it but if you read the rest of the paragraph it definitely does say was killed as were two rescue workers

      The Twitter post definitely excludes every single mention of her and her family being killed by israel.


      The website article makes zero mention of Hind being killed. It goes as far as excluding her from being killed and then saying “she was found dead”.

      Israeli troops were firing on the car, the teen said in terrified calls to relatives and emergency services. Everyone in the vehicle was killed except her and her 5-year-old female cousin, Hind, she said.

      The family car was found as well with six bodies, including Layan’s and Hind’s.

      This is also factually incorrect nowhere do they use the word killed for the ambulance personnel.

      On Saturday, 12 days later, the ambulance was discovered, blackened and destroyed. The two medics were dead.

      They always report the facts but frame them emotionally starting with the headline. They don’t need totalitarian control of the media, they only need to convince 5-10% to get total control. That’s how propaganda and corruption works in democratic countries.
