How does everyone feel about Israel?

Re: How does everyone feel about Israel?

Okay so which media can be trusted? Russia Today?

What I do is watch Russia Today, Press TV (Iran), Fox/CNN, BBC, Al Jazeera, Turkish News and try to figure out why they all report from the same point of view on some news and drastically different on others

Like, the big news right now seems to be these American women that were attacked in Israel. People get attacked everyday in America but soon as Americans get attacked outside of their borders, it gets huge media attention.... especially when Israel is involved.

I watch a variety too, and I believe that's the right thing to do. I follow Armenian news, European news, American news, Russian news, and even Azeri news.

That’s a good choice to start with, if you want to watch only one news media, but I would suggest to watch and read everything including arab news media and filter all the crap and see what you’re left with.

russiatoday is as much propaganda as the major US media sources. I stick to watching a variety which mostly consist of European news sources, Armenian (obviously), Azeri/Turkish, some Russian and Middle Eastern on the side.

This was published in 2005.... And Russia Today has been said to be on Washington's Enemies list

MARGARITA SIMONIAN EDITOR-IN-CHIEF OF RUSSIAN CNN (Russia Today)

By the end of the year the Russian version of CNN will open in Russia. It will be called "Russia Today TV." Gazeta e-newspaper informed that the new state TV will unfold anti-revolutionary propaganda, if the events in Ukraine threat Russia. Margarita Simonian, editor-in-chief of "Russia Today TV," told journalists that they are going to be an independent mass media. "In the beginning we will represent the official position that says that black is white, then our expert will discuss it, saying that white is black and only after Socrat will add that both are right," Margarita Simonian said.

"Russia Today TV" will broadcast twenty-four-hour news, sports, business, weather report and documentary films just like BBC and CNN do. 80% of the journalists will be foreign reporters. The Armenian journalist work at the Russian ORT and RTR TVs. She has been mainly highlighting the visits of Putin in Russian and in foreign countries during the last few years.

Re: How does everyone feel about Israel?

Okay, I'm talking from a neutral perspective...American media and Russian media in my eyes are untrustworthy for unbiased news both are heavily unfluenced by their own state policy and American media with political correctness BS....I usually follow European news like France 24, Euronews, DW, etc. And of course along with Armenian news like tert.am or news.am, I follow Azeri/Turkish news as it's very useful to see what the other side is saying about us and especially get a kick out of Azeri propaganda...

For example news like these you don’t hear or see on western media, watch it all if you can but make sure to watch especially the one @ 43:35 min.

You know, if the world didn't have so much resentment for Israel and xxxs, they would've been assimilated by now and not exist.

I think the problem is they have resentment for everyone else. A young Israeli woman was at the mall trying to sell me some nail polishing kit today. I didn't know she was Israeli, she didn't know I was Armenian. She just had a strong accent with very poor English pronunciation. Anyways the thing was priced at 80 bucks a box. I already knew I wasn't interested but let her do her spiel anyways. So she wasn't that bad looking... intelligent eyes, etc. so I asked her where she was from and she said Israel. The product was also from Israel and she went on about the Dead Sea and the minerals. She was talking to me like I was a clueless Canadian and then asked me what my background was. I told her I was Armenian and she said "Oh, so you know about Israel then." I told her I wasn't interested because I already had bought gifts and she said "Because you're Armenian, I'll give you two for the price of one." I said I wasn't interested... and she goes, I'll give you two boxes and throw in an extra magic filer. I said politely "You're a great sales person, but I already bought all my gifts, I'm just here browsing." She physically got mad and snickered at me. Like seriously. LOL.

That's just cause she takes her job too seriously and probably didn't have many customers today. Let her resent all she wants.
