- Is Jodi Rudoren the worst major-outlet reporter covering the Arab-Israeli conflict? Is anyone even close to this bad? http://www.nytimes.com/2014/11/19/world/middleeast/in-jerusalem-war-of-neighbors-the-differences-are-not-negotiable.html?hp&action=click&pgtype=Homepage&module=first-column-region®ion=top-news&WT.nav=top-news&_r=0 …

— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:20:11 - Yes Jodi. The spilling of Jewish blood in a shul by Palestinian terrorists deserves the mealy mouthed "on the one hand on the other" garbage
http://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/535075311055306753
— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:21:10 - Also, time to end this nonsense about the Temple Mount "status quo." It's the Palestinians who are trying to change it. Bibi made it clear..
http://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/535075894545895424
— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:23:29 - ...that Israel isn't changing the status quo. But Palestinians now don't want Jews to even visit, let alone pray. So for Rudoren to accept..
http://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/535076027421450240
— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:24:00 - ..the idiocy that Israel is disrupting the status quo shows the kind of aggressive, astounding ignorance you rarely see outside of, say, Vox
http://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/535076270686871553
— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:24:58 - Rudoren puts her thumb on the scales: "Jewish vandalism against mosques is a regular occurrence." Citation Jodi, or are you not a reporter?
http://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/535076614053568512
— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:26:20 - And is there vandalism against Jewish property? Of course there is. Might have made a good sentence to follow up with.
http://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/535076990039379969
— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:27:50 - But that would be "balance," & balance is only important to Rudoren when she can draw equivalence between Jewish prayer & Islamic terrorism.
http://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/535077281560285184
— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:28:59 - How did the Temple Mount status quo come about? Oh right, Israel could have exercised full control but handed the keys back to the waqf.
http://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/535077628878016512
— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:30:22 - So Israel created the status quo that gives more rights to Muslims than Jews on TM, & Israel is upholding that status quo.
http://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/535077832092024832
— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:31:11 - So why the violence then? Rudoren wants us to believe it's "extremists" on both sides. What she means is Jews minding their business...
http://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/535078019359318019
— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:31:55 - ...and getting murdered in cold blood for it. By whom? Angry hatchets? Sentient cars? Come on, Jodi, say it.
http://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/535078209583599616
— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:32:41 - The fact is, Jewish "extremists" pray, Palestinian "moderates" incite mass violence against men, women, and children.
http://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/535078751256981504
— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:34:50 - Jodi has trouble saying anything close to the truth. It would be inconvenient 2 her agenda (It would also require a modicum of intelligence)
http://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/535079059349577729
— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:36:03 - Perhaps my favorite part tho is where she repeats like a parrot Khatib's complains that life is so much worse for Arabs in J'lem than in WB
http://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/535079456600489984
— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:37:38 - Really? Well why don't we ask the Arabs of Jerusalem whether they prefer Israeli government or to live under the Palestinian Authority?
http://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/535079570933047298
— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:38:05 - Ah right. We do ask them. And they say they prefer Israel. I wonder why that is? It's a question a decent reporter might have thought to ask
http://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/535079677170577408
— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:38:30 - But we are not dealing with a decent reporter, we are dealing with Rudoren, so we simply get told that life is better for Arabs in WB
http://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/535079810876596224
— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:39:02 - Basic reporting 101 should have had Rudoren challenging so much here. Does she not consider what she does "reporting"? She should say so.
http://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/535080388826513408
— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:41:20 - So if you're playing along, CAIR, the Bahraini gov't, & the Turkish gov't all took a tougher line on the terror than Rudoren and the NYT.
http://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/535081019876319233
— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:43:51 - If Rudoren can't control herself then she should at least wait until the blood is dry before her degraded equivalence.
http://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/535081537013030912
— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:45:54 - Also: what makes Rudoren think this is turning into a religious war? Where the hell has she been? It's always been a war against the Jews.
http://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/535081795927429120
— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:46:56 - And that's why the Temple Mount stuff is important. The agreement over the TM proves the Jews can and will compromise their own rights...
http://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/535081954040102912
— Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel)Wed, Nov 19 2014 14:47:33 - ...in order to privilege the rights of Muslims so the two can share the same plot of land and live together in peace.
