Yeah insinuating that Haaretz is worth supporting financially is wild. I seem to remember Norman Finklestein mentioning the editor was the daughter of someone he had been close friends with and the daughter told him never to contact her again after Oct 7th. I guess it seems liberal leaning in comparison of
Israeli media.
I think what is telling about the Haaretz article is that they try to paint the whole situation as being caused by an accident, as if the the systematic massacre of Palestinians is not the intended function of the IOF.
The article continuously states that the IOF militants are confused about why they firing at civilians. The whole article is written as if there was an event of mass amnesia. There's a quote in the middle of the article which says that war crimes may be ideologically motivated but then the article never investigates further. "My greatest fear is that the shooting and harm to civilians in Gaza aren't the result of operational necessity or poor judgment, but rather the product of an ideology held by field commanders, which they pass down to the troops as an operational plan." Only a brief moment of self awareness.
It's good that an Israeli newspaper admits that the Israel is doing a war crimes, however the tone of the article is still sympathetic towards the Israeli militants.
