On May 11, the Quds News Network posted a video on YouTube showing a young boy crying as he chased the funeral procession of his father who was killed in an Israeli airstrike.
The video shows the boy, Baraa Suleiman, wailing as he runs after his father's body.
The YouTube video has over 1.1 million views, and there were millions more views of the mourning child from other media outlets.
What none of the reports said was that the father was Walid Suleiman, a major Hamas leader. The Al Qassam Brigades just released an 18 minute video tribute to Suleiman.
The propaganda victory doesn't end there.
Walid was killed along with another son of his, Mohammed. The New York Times listed Mohammed as one of the children killed in Gaza:
But its research into the background of the children it lists doesn't mention that Suleiman's father was a Hamas leader and military target, and therefore he is responsible for Mohammed's death.
Major media aren't researching how many children were killed because they were near legitimate targets. Instead, the media is more interested in painting Israelis as war criminals, and details like this prove the exact opposite - that Hamas is guilty of war crimes by embedding military targets with civilians.
Hamas understands very well the underlying anti-Israel thinking in major media. It provides the selective information to the journalists, and it knows the journalists are too lazy and anti-Israel to bother to dig any deeper than the stories handed to them on a terrorist platter.
