The Council on American Islamic Relations said the allegation was that the teacher had remarked, “I do not negotiate with terrorists,” when the Palestinian American student asked for a seat change.

Recent U.S. incidents involving children include the attempted drowning of a 3-year-old Palestinian American girl in Texas and the fatal stabbing of a 6-year-old Palestinian American boy in Illinois.

    This is kind of unrelated, but I lost trust in reuters when they did an “investigative piece” on a scientist claiming he was “harassed” by patients, which was basically a hit piece on an entire illness (everyone with it). The “harassment” in question was people asking for data to be released on a study that led to disability benefits being removed. Low and behold, once the data was released (after a multiyear court battle) it was found to be very manipulated and the study went down the trash. (Study was funded by the disability insurance obviously).

    Reuters never reported on the fact a court found those allegations “harassment” were “without proof”, at best, “grossly exaggerated” and done “with malicious intentions”. Or the fact the reanlyses of the data used in that study came to the opposite conclusions.

      investigative piece

      if a wire service disseminates opinions they then get reported as facts.

      They have a single job and stepping out of their lane makes them worse than useless.
