Max Blumenthal praises the “courageous decision” of the US media for broadcasting Neda’s killing “vividly and repeatedly.” Wishes they would do the same for Palestinian victims.

Yet when Palestinians employ direct action tactics to protest Israeli oppression, and when Israeli forces respond with wanton brutality, they are ignored by the US media, even when footage is already available through online sources.
