It's well known the Guardian group of newspapers political stance is something akin to the BBC. One example that shows this distortional bias very clearly is visible in their webpage - "Israel and the Middle East - Key Events"
Lest anyone think the following highlight is an oversight, I can tell you that I have notified various Guardian editors over the years to rectify it, to no avail.
This is education - Guardian style
For the year 1994 the only event shown is "1994 - Baruch Goldstein, a demented Jewish zealot in the flashpoint West Bank town of Hebron, goes beserk in the town's most historic mosque, killing 29 Arabs with his assault rifle. "?
Amazingly ignored as key events are:
1. May 1994 - The Gaza/Jericho agreement in Cairo between Israel and the PA giving autonomy to the Palestinian Authority in those areas - Surely a Key Event
2. July 1994 - The Israel/Jordan peace treaty - Surely a Key Event
In light of the only event that this paper does show, would it not be equitable to also have had:
3. 40 Israelis murdered by demented terrorists in numerous beserk attacks throughout that year - most following the granting of autonomy to the PA?
