Even in what David Collier says he has uncovered as being the real context for the BBC story, that
- this was a family of terrorists,
-who couldn’t care less about Muhammad he implies, given there are no photos of him on Facebook or elsewhere(? ? We can see them)
-and he has a family member who despises disabled people, including Muhammed no doubt, given his mocking remark about the disabled appearance of an IDF soldier,
and that,
-as the story was reported by one of his brothers who is an Islamic Jihad propoganda reporter, it will be a lie,
-and the interview with his old mother will be a lie too as she is the widow of a Hamas terrorist
nowhere, do we learn that the man was not autistic, not born with Down’s Syndrome, not attacked by an IDF combat dog, the dog not called off until after it had mauled the man to the point of fatally injuring him. Or learn that the IDF sent for an ambulance for this man, or left his elderly (unarmed) mother with him to comfort him.
The family has called for an enquiry.
David Collier’s reasoning would seem to suggest that propaganda is only propaganda if it is Palestinian. He is just writing the truth on behalf of Israel. That if Ben-Givr or Netanyahu ( terrorists from a Palestinian point of view) had an autistic Downs Syndrome son killed by a Palestinian attack dog, that would be only to be expected; and that if had been one of these men’s wives reporting their son killed in this way, they could be dismissed as liars given who their husbands are.
