Not sure how it is Islamic propaganda when one of the women is actually a Christian.

Americans elected Bush twice, should they be punished for their choice? Israel elected Sharon, a convicted war criminal, should they punished for that as well?

Fantastic work girls. Keep this up!

thanks again for your hard work and getting to the truth. We need to get your words out, even against the bias media that we all know is controlled by the Jews. It is just a means to wipe out the innocent ones and take over your land.

The kill ratio is approximately 30:1.

Many credible Jewish authors document western media bias. Saying American media NEVER portrayed the conflict on an equal level is grossly inaccurate. Recall a large photograph of an Israeli woman crying & a Palestinian woman wailing in the Washington Post. The former was afraid of rockets while the latter HAD LOST HER CHILD.

It is also misleading on your part to call it the "Hamas-Israeli" conflict. It is a PALESTINIAN-Israeli conflict & Palestinian civilians are being killed in the hundreds.

Thanks for posting. We need more media coverage that where people speak in a calm and rational manner.

no matter how u think of Bush and Sharon , is that they did everything they could to serve its interest and to protect its people and and free from sufering .... the leader there should do the same to find the best sulotion for long lasting peace and end suffering of its people , we know Bush and Sharon are not perfect one but we know they want peace and its up to you there to connect it, u wanna continue of the same or u want change...it goes on and on and on

Izrael = baby killers

Izrael = baby killers

Izrael = baby killers

the problem is when hate blurs the truth even when it slaps you in the face. These women are referring to very accurate sources... try to understand what is being said, instead of throwing out insulting comments.

HOW about the ARAB MEDIA are they not bias? Blame your leader first they are the one that leads you to all this pain and suffering , there will be NO HOPE for you Palestine if your leader continue to act the way they act now , your Arab Neighbor will continue to encourage you to DIE for them in solidarity by protesting and arming you... we from the sideline watching know whats going on we got PC to know more than the media knows...

Excellent! This is a perfect model for the type of activism that needs to flourish throughout the Arab World. Keep it up and, please, build on it!

"The Israeli propagandists ... cannot seem to distinguish ... between criticising Israel's actions & Israel's existence." Indeed, the mainstream media has consistently demonstrated a total lack of interest in presenting an unbiased viewpoint.

We're all complicit in these crimes against humanity as long as we remain silent. I'm sure many appreciate your efforts to address this glaring problem, particularly since voices of dissent are being stifled.

Thank you for standing up against injustice.
