Joe Scarborough calls out Israel’s actions as ‘asinine’ in good piece of journalism on Morning Joe


Reporting on the Palestinian-Israeli conflict has been horribly biased on all networks. Both ‘Liberal” and Conservative networks have displayed poor journalism and no context in their reporting. The asymmetric Palestinians to Israeli deaths seemed to be reported as justified. After all, Hamas has been firing rockets indiscriminately into Israel which could potentially kill many Israeli civilians.

The reality is, Israel has been able to prevent those rockets from killing its people. There is minimal destruction in Israel. Israel could put its efforts into blowing up tunnels from their own territory as opposed to doing so from within Gaza. They could inflict damage on Hamas without killing and maiming thousands of innocent Palestinian civilians.

That what they are doing is wrong.
I don't think you can call Joe Scarborough anti-semitic.
