AFP has a new story about Suicide Bomber Mickey, who is now telling kids to wage jihad on Israel and Spain. Fair enough. But we’ve been reading this AFP lede for the last five minutes, and it’s kind of making our brain hurt:
“Hamas-run television defied… the Palestinian government” which is Hamas! Hamas is apparently defying itself. Because obviously the Legitimately Elected Government of the Palestinian People ™ is a peace-loving one, so to the extent that it’s not, it is. Ah, journalism.
