They just can't help themselves from repeating this lie...and yet we are supposed to believe the msm are turning against Israel.
If they really were, this lie would be one of, if not the first lie to be corrected and put in the context of Israel's response that day and the use of the Hannibal Directive.

The Independent are among the worst offenders when it comes to this canard and have sent three emails to them in the last month alone asking why they still include it and three times got an automated reply thanking me for the email and then nothing more.
Just sent them another one about this report and got the same automated response...won't be holding my breath for any feedback.
