From within the article... 📂 Archived Message Posted by Raskolnikov on November 5, 2021, 9:26 am, in reply to "Profiles in Courage, NOT. No. 1: The Scientific American." Just two days after the now-retracted article was published, the magazine also published a similar opinion piece decrying the “mental health crisis” in Gaza. The article took aim at “recent bombings by Israel” but did not mention Hamas, the terrorist organization that rules the territory and has precipitated the most recent violence. Sunya Bhutta, a senior editor at the magazine, has tweeted the slogan, “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” — widely taken as a call for the destruction of Israel. She is also a public supporter of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement, which has been widely condemned as anti-Semitic. They "..ignored easily verified facts that counter the authors’ one-sided invective" but seem to have no problem making those errors in their apology. Just in those two paragraphs they manage to twist the Palestinian "river to the sea" slogan into a call for genocide, falsely blame Hamas for initiating the latest round of Gaza air strikes, refer to Hamas as some kind of gang of terrorists rather than an elected government and claim, against utterly incorrectly, that BDS is anti-semitic. Why not just let the Israeli embassy write your articles you spineless bastards? Message Thread: Profiles in Courage, NOT.
