While Big Media has its dainty panties all wedgied up and uncomfy in its unmentionable place over Israel's self-defensive operations against the Hamas enemy, who has, for a long time (largely unreported by the biased Big Media, naturally), been attacking Israelis in Israel with rockets launched from heavily populated areas in Gaza, including schools, Mosques, etc...
Big Media, in a decidedly deliberate, terribly unbalanced, unfair act of unethical, immoral omission, fails to tell us about the shocking reality of what Hamas is doing to other "Palestinians". As if it's ok for "Palestinians" to commit atrocities against other "Palestinians", but it's wholly intolerable for Israel to defend herself and her citizens and for there to be accidental, unavoidable "Palestininan" civilian collateral casualties due to the location of enemy rocket launchpads and their hateful, evil, bloodlustful Hamas operators in populated areas.
It would seem that, when Israel accidentally causes collateral casualties in her self-defensive operations against the horrendously hateful, evil Hamas enemy, it's unacceptable, but when Hamas deliberately tortures and murders "Palestinians", it doesn't matter, as if suddenly "Palestinians" are no longer human, because it's an "internal matter" between and amongst the "Palestinians" and is therefore none of anyone's business. Oh, how logical, rational of the Big Media, eh? One moment they care about "Palestinians" suffering, but the next moment they don't, because the suffering is being caused by other "Palestinians", so that makes it ok. Gotcha.
Fatah officials in Ramallah told The Jerusalem Post that Hamas militiamen had been assaulting many Fatah activists since the beginning of the operation last Saturday. They said at least 75 activists were shot in the legs while others had their hands broken.

"Hamas is very nervous, because they feel that their end is nearing," a senior Fatah official said. "They have been waging a brutal campaign against Fatah members in the Gaza Strip."
Meanwhile, sources close to Hamas revealed over the weekend that the movement had "executed" more than 35 Palestinians who were suspected of collaborating with Israel and were being held in various Hamas security installations.
