Meryl Yourish smacks the AP for biased reporting on deaths in the three year Intifada:

Emphasis, of course, is mine. Rachel effing Corrie is included on the palestinian side. European journalists are included as "palestinian deaths." Excuse me, but when did Britain and Italy become part of the palestinian state? What kind of bullshit is this, to take deaths in a battle zone and attribute them to the Israeli side, while quantifying dozens of Israeli deaths by saying that the victims also were U.S. citizens with dual citizenship? They had emigrated. They were Israelis.

Also included in the death rates for palestinians: "Suspected collaborators: 60." As if the Israelis are responsible for the murder (without trial) of sixty supposed collaborators. No, the pals are the ones who executed this mother of seven. Yet she is included in the statistics, which are then inflated and Israel is blamed for deaths which were not her responsibility.

Hat tip the indispensible LGF.
