Why the mainstream media is still ignoring Max Blumenthal’s excellent book on Gaza
US Politics
James North on August 31, 2015
Once
you finish Max Blumenthal’s gripping, indispensable, first-hand account
of last year’s Israeli attack on Gaza, you can better understand why
the mainstream U.S. media is afraid to review it. The 51 Day War: Ruin and Resistance in Gaza repudiates the conventional history so decisively that readers of the New York Times, the Washington Post, and other major outlets would be stunned into asking some pointed questions about the myths they are being fed.
Blumenthal
was brave enough to actually travel inside Gaza during part of the
ferocious Israeli air and land assault, (accompanied by Dan Cohen, one
of this site’s colleagues), and his eyewitness testimony and chilling,
wrenching interviews with Palestinians will form a valuable part of the
historical record.http://mondoweiss.net/2015/08/mainstream-blumenthals-excellent
