Stampede In Gaza A Tragedy of Hamas’ Making: Will The Media Tell The Real Story?

Before long, Hamas predictably blamed Israel. But even as Israel released satellite footage corroborating its story, news media outlets around the world - quick to publish a story as fast as possible - simply repeated Hamas’ disinformation, failing to provide a full picture of events.
