In reply to the discussion: 60+ Journalism Profs Demand Investigation into Controversial NYT Article Alleging Oct. 7 Mass Rape [View all]Jim_S

Did you watch the full video of Democracy Now? What is wrong with an independent investigation? Even within the ranks of their paper, there are questions about the substance of this article. One doesnt have to look too far to see that the NYTimes is more than willing to obfuscate the truth. Remember the build-up to the Iraq invasion? How did all that work out?

It is shameful to assert there are no sources for this, after a mountain of evidence has been compiled.

So, they don't deny Hamas raped civilians, they're quibbling over what "mass" means!

Except this seems to be a recurring theme, and it always is from the same groups. It doesn't matter what
