It's not accurate to say that "no one [criticizes Israel]", even in the U.S.

It is true that the almost all broadcast media sides overwhelmingly with Israel, abdicating any responsibility to examine either the facts of the current conflict or either the historical context or the actual situation (settlements, poverty, outdoor jail, etc.).

A good example of this is the recent clip being bandied about of Bill Maher's show. Real Time is supposedly Libertarian and provides a forum for supposed liberals more often than not. This is the state of the left in the U.S. today. Appalling.

The degree to which an otherwise useful David Frum and the execrable David Axelrod and the obnoxious Maher kowtow to the accepted story of the conflict is horrifying. Moore is incoherent and wildly accusing, but at least he's not buying the Israeli side wholesale.

There are other notables who report the conflict much more accurately and fairly (Gleen Greenwald, Noam Chomsky, etc.) but they get hardly any exposure at all. You have to go looking for them, but they're there. And, while the U.S. doesn't care about them, the rest of the world does (to varying degrees).

I haven't been following the current exchanges, but if history is any guide whatsoever, the degree to which Gaza is threatening Israel is being hugely exaggerated. Maybe this time, that's no the case, I don't know. The context, though, as depicted in the OP, is accurate and provides appropriate context (something that Moore clumsily tried to express).
