Le pattern habituel: le Hamas balance 90 roquettes en trois jours sur Israël, niet. Tsahal réplique en effectuant quelques frappes chirurgicales en territoire palestinien, breaking news…
Qassam attacks on Sderot have received very little coverage in world media, despite the heavy barrages that have been going on for the past three days.
Only when Israel began to respond to the attacks by aerial bombings, cannons and tanks did this part of the world receive attention from the American media.
Israel’s complaints to the United Nations Security Council were simply not reported.
In Europe the issue also received very little coverage, especially compared to the factional fighting that has been going on in the Gaza Strip between.
The Europeans claim the reason for this is that most of the airtime in the past few days has been dedicated to the change of leadership in France, and the little airtime left was set aside for the difficult images from Gaza, and not Sderot.
The moment that the Israel Defense Force began to retaliate, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict went back to making headlines.
