Tel-Chai Nation

Tom Gross has posted pictures of the fancy new shopping mall in Gaza the MSM is not interested in telling about, and here's a video of it too (via Betsy's Page). And Gross says:

As I have written before, of course there is poverty in parts of Gaza. There is poverty in parts of Israel too. But when was the last time a foreign journalist based in Israel left the pampered lounge bars and restaurants of the King David and American Colony hotels in Jerusalem and went to check out the slum-like areas of southern Tel Aviv? Or the hard-hit Negev towns of Netivot or Rahat?

Playing the manipulative game of the BBC is easy. If we had their vast taxpayer-funded resources, we too could produce reports about parts of London, Manchester and Glasgow and make it look as though there is a humanitarian catastrophe throughout the U.K. We could produce the same effect by selectively filming seedy parts of Paris and Rome and New York and Los Angeles too.

And think of all the money that's been sent to Gaza, and that's going to include another $400 million the Obama administration is sending in "foreign aid". Why do they deserve it and not refugees in African countries like Sudan and Congo?
