| + | In Nov 2022, after the [[DOJ]]'s final decision on the accidental death of [[Al Jazeera]]'s propagandist "journalist" Shireen Abu Akleh in a crossfire between terrorists and IDF in May/2022, and after US and Israeli elections,<ref name=algemeiner-21nov2022>Sean Burns, [https://www.algemeiner.com/2022/11/21/the-washington-posts-short-sighted-editorial-on-the-fbis-abu-akleh-investigation/ The Washington Post’s Short-Sighted Editorial on the FBI’s Abu Akleh Investigation], ''The Algemeiner'', Nov 21, 2022. |
| | + | <blockquote><font size=1>As Richard Goldberg, a senior advisor to the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, a Washington D.C.-based think tank, noted: “It should be an expectation of every American that our government will press democratic allies for expedited and transparent investigations when U.S. citizens die in any circumstance — and that’s what already happened in this case.” Goldberg pointed out that “the top U.S. security official in the area oversaw an independent forensic analysis and concluded that Abu Akleh’s tragic death was not intentional.” |
| | + | The White House has claimed that it wasn’t aware of the DOJ investigation — a claim that is questionable. But if this were true it raises questions of its own — questions that the Washington Post isn’t asking. |
| | + | For example: Why now? Why only after the Israeli and US elections? And why a second investigation; does the DOJ think that State’s conclusions were wrong — and if so, why? The timing could suggest a politically motivated investigation, one being conducted to appease certain members of Congress, some with a history of antisemitic remarks and questioning Israel’s existence, who have been petitioning the Biden administration to investigate the Jewish state and put it on the defensive. |
| | + | The DOJ’s decision is far from standard practice. Indeed, numerous Americans have been attacked and killed by Palestinian terrorists, only for the perpetrators to receive tax-deductible salaries from the Palestinian Authority in return. The US did not conduct two separate investigations in those instances, whether it was Ari Fuld, Taylor Force, or any of the dozens of other victims. (The journalist killed in the counter-terror operation was a dual American citizen). Indeed, the current administration has restored aid to the PA, which pays those very terrorist salaries. Such incongruities don’t merit a mention from the Post. |
| | + | What really seems to be happening is an attempt to use Abu Akleh’s tragic death to cast Israel as a pariah state. And the Washington Post is a willing participant in this chicanery.</font></blockquote></ref> where by the latter, linked Biden liberals meddled, invested in propaganda in that country, trying so hard to prevent [[Netanyahu]]'s return, and Biden, anti-Israel actors (like Soros linked for example) upset by failing in it, big time, Biden, politicized the [[FBI]] (using its resources for politics) to "investigate," the pro Jihad reporter.<ref>Caroline Glick, [https://www.jns.org/opinion/the-biden-administration-weaponizes-the-fbi-against-israel/ The Biden administration weaponizes the FBI against Israel], ''JNS'' |

| − | Abu Akleh died on May 11 in Jenin while she was embedded with Iranian-controlled Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorists engaged in a gun battle with IDF soldiers. The battle took place in the midst of an onslaught of murderous terror attacks carried out by Jenin-based terrorists affiliated with the Iranian-proxy. On May 5, two PIJ terrorists from Jenin hacked three Israelis to death with axes and wounded three more in the haredi city of Elad, just as Israel’s Independence Day celebrations were ending. The soldiers that entered Jenin on May 11 were part of a counter-terror force tasked with breaking up the PIJ infrastructure in the city.</blockquote></ref> | + | Abu Akleh died on May 11 in Jenin while she was embedded with Iranian-controlled Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorists engaged in a gun battle with IDF soldiers.
