MODERATORS
From another biased source:

You consider the Associated Press a biased source?
A hundred times yes. AP is inseparable from US imperialism. It projects the Pentagon's version of reality to a global audience. Through sheer volume it floods the airwaves to the detriment of other countries' own news agencies, sets the agenda, and is integral to US hegemony, as soft power.
So post your citations
Your first link is to a summary of a book and your second doesn’t mention the associated press
I don’t know what to tell you. To not be familiar with Chomsky’s or Parenti’s work is to lack basic media literacy, which, to be fair, is most people.
If you don’t want to read a book, you might start with the video documentary: Manufacturing Consent Noam Chomsky and the Media (Documentary) 1080p
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

News flash: they’re all biased, written by biased humans, edited by biased humans, etc etc.
Meme out of the way:
Overall, we rate the Associated Press as left-centered biased due to left-leaning editorializing of news stories and frequently conducting fact checks on conservatives. We also rate them High for factual reporting due to proper sourcing and a reasonable fact-check record.

Using military force in an area you occupy is illegal. Why didn't Israel do police work?
This is police work. This is yamas unit. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yamas_(Israel_Border_Police_unit)
Oh, thanks for the link.
Reading that this is something Yamas does regularly sounds like it would be terrifying to Palestinians.
