Haaretz Is Either Ignorant or Biased

This picture, from AP, accompanies a story in Haaretz




and its caption reads:

Settlers pointing handguns at Palestinians near Nablus - Photo by: AP


The story is headlined:

West Bank settlers outraged by Israel Police curb on handguns | West Bank residents claim discrimination as nationwide campaign to limit gun use makes no exception for Israelis living beyond the Green Line


Now, do those look like handguns to you?

I'm confused about your point here. Are you saying that Ha'aretz is biased FOR the settlers?

If you're serious about your confusion,I meant that whereas the revenant Jews are arguing about handguns, the illustrative photo is of machineguns, making the peopole seem a bit more threatening.

HAARETZISM: Haaretz hate site, anti-Jewish racism, fabrication, half-truths, pro-terror, false Racialization:

Since, especially, the early 2000s' unreliable Haaretz has been systematically exaggerating, often invented fake news, fabricating facts (sometimes apologizing weakly and only after the falsehood was widely disseminated) and apologetic for racist Arab attacks targeting Jews, yet slapping falsely the "racism" label exclusively on those that fear the very racist attacks. In general, using big words terminology like "racism" and "fascism" when not even related (some stated, it's intended for bait clicks). It has incited repeatedly for violence. And above all, has been spreading hatred against Jews, including vile hate cartoons. It's widely quoted by neo-Nazis. And all of the above, with a fanaticism. In its zealotry, it even rewrites history.
