Two Jewish civilians were killed during another Palestinian stabbing attack at the entrence to Jerusalem old city, but according to the CBS "2 Palestinians were killed after stabbing attack in Jerusalem" - That was the first headline, which was only later changed into ""2 Israelis dead after stabbing attack in Jerusalem; 2 Palestinian assailants killed." The New York Times, meanwhile, reported on the attack with the headline "2 Palestinian Attackers Killed, 2 Israelis Die in Jerusalem." - This headline turned American students who support Israel to post the headline on its Facebook page, adding "Terrorists are killed, but innocent Israelis DIE? Time after time we are shocked and saddened by the choice of western media to cover terror acts against Israelis in a different way than acts against other people around the world,". The CNN also joined the party with another non-accurate info - Instead of reporting on 2 victims and 2 terrorists who were killed, a newscaster at CNN simply reported: "In Jerusalem, four people are dead in the wake of a stabbing attack in a very popular tourist area. It happened at the Jaffa Gate to the Old City." In a letter sent to the CBS by Israel Government Press Office it was said: ""The first headline is clearly turning the murderers into victims in the most inflammatory way possible. There can be no justification for this. Beyond the immediate risk it poses to Israelis from possible Arab revenge attacks, it is simply dishonest and unethical journalism." In a letter sent to CNN, GPO director Nitzan Chen wrote: "As this is neither the first nor the second such incident, I have no choice but to contact you regarding this latest example. "We believe that combining the two murderers with the two victims into 'four dead' - is not only dishonest and unethical journalism, but also borders on incitement since the viewer can easily misinterpret it." ------ "I only have fond memories from him. He was a wonderful man, and never harmed anyone," said Gaia Ben-Ari, the daughter of Ofer Ben-Ari, who was killed in the Jaffa Gate terror attack, while trying to neutralize the terrorists. The second civilian killed in the attack was Rabbi Reuven Biermacher. Since the start of the current wave of Palestinian terror over the past 3 months, Around 25 victims had been murdered, and 260 wounded.
