When the truth of Israel’s Apartheid is replaced with missile and 
assorted violence data reporting.

Imagine if reports of riots in Soweto against Apartheid never 
mentioned Apartheid but only concentrated on the violence of the 
youths or the loss of life and property caused by militant blacks. 
This is what we are being treated to today in Western media reports 
from Palestine.

When the truth is replaced by silence, a dissident once said, the 
silence is a lie. And when this lie concerns ethnic cleansing of a 
native population, and the installation of an apartheid state, those 
who knowingly perpetuate the lie are participants in the crime.

Look at our news feed from Palestine and Israel: They report on the 
violence as events unconnected to their cause: the wilful attempt to 
evict dozens of Palestinian families from Sheikh Jarrah, a 
neighbourhood in occupied East Jerusalem, in order to hand over their 
homes to Israeli settlers. The Israeli apartheid policies, and the 
settler ideology behind them, go unreported.

Every time a TV station, a commentator, a politician or a government 
spokesperson reports on these events without a mention of the ideology 
and practices of apartheid that caused them, they become accomplices 
to a horrendous crime.
