Washington Post continues anti-Israel animus

In, “Amid rubble of Gaza protesters decry Hamas” (3/26/25), The Washington Post tells of the Gazans protesting and wanting “Hamas out.” What the Post doesn’t tell its readers is that it’s not because the Gazan’s want – all of a sudden – peace with Israel or a two-state solution; it’s because Hamas is not winning and their homes face further destruction. The Gazans have no regrets or change of heart that their ultimate goal is the destruction of Israel. They want a different path but the same endpoint. The Post needs to tell it like it is.

Meanwhile, showing creativity, anti-Israel sentiment has made it to yet another section of The Washington Post – the “Tech” section. What’s next – the comics?

In “A militant Zionist group threatens activists online with a ‘deport list’” (3/29/25), the Post blames those who identify terrorist supporters, not the terrorist supporters themselves. Note that The Washington Post views pro-Israel activists as “a militant Zionist group” and Hamas terrorist supporters as “activists.” Up is down and down is up at the Post. Of course the Post knows that Hamas is designated as a terrorist organization by the United States, UK, EU among others. Or maybe they don’t?

Whatever the Post knows or doesn’t know, they get to stick up for terrorist supporters while having the chance to bash Israel supporters both at the same time. How better to make their day?

He is a crusader in online/social media working to educate the general public as an advocate of Israel and against anti-Semitism. Dr. Berenhaus is a co-founder of ‘Boycott The Post’ and of ‘Eye on the Post’ - two non-profit organizations that monitor media coverage to ensure accuracy, fairness and truth as it relates to Israel. He is also a founder of The Pakistan Israel Peace Forum, an organization dedicated to creating peace between Muslims and Jews. Although many people in the Washington Jewish community know Dr. Berenhaus for his work in journalism, most don't know how generous he is to the Jewish community with both his time and money. Dr. Berenhaus has spent countless hours throughout the years volunteering for Israel and Jewish organizations. He went to Ethiopia and worked with the last remaining Ethiopian Jews. He has lectured to Interns and community groups providing direction and techniques for Israel Advocacy in the media. Currently, Dr. Berenhaus is working with JSSA to coordinate and donate eye glasses to the entire Washington DC region of needy Holocaust Survivors. That effort has now been expanded nationally.
