We’ve seen our share of headlines regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that fail to capture the full picture. For example, when Agence France-Presse reports that “Israeli troops kill 2 Palestinians in Hebron knife attack,” that means that two suspects approached a military post in Hebron and managed to injure one soldier before the Israeli forces shot them.
Or consider CNN’s news ticker, which read simply, “Palestinians shot boarding kids’ bus.” Those are some tough kids. Either that, or two Palestinian men armed with knives tried to board a bus carrying children in Israel, were forced back, and then stabbed an Israeli man at a bus stop instead.
Jenna Jameson ran across a similar headline today in IMEMC News, “An alternative source of news from Palestine, produced by Palestinian and International journalists.”
Why don't you get your facts straight? She and her younger relative tried stabbing civilians with scissors! https://t.co/vNTMwjb8Aj

So the headline reads, “Child Killed, Her Friend Seriously Injured, In Jerusalem.” That’s terrible. Now what’s this about scissors? C’mon, IMEMC, it’s not that difficult to write a headline.
Two Palestinian girls, 14 and 16, use scissors to commit stabbing attack in Jerusalem. both shot , one killed.

Two teen Palestinian girls shot by police after stabbing Jewish man with scissors https://t.co/0MhdIBOT1M

As it turns out, the Palestinian teens not only stabbed a man with scissors, but managed to stab an elderly Palestinian man by mistake. The girls were then shot by police, which is where the IMEMC News headline begins and ends.

@jennajameson they didn't just try, they succeeded. They stabbed a 70 year old Palestinian man, which they thought was a Jew by mistake.
