Dreadful HAARETZ's Gideon Levy

WOOING THE HAMAS by Steven Plaut - Think-Israel

The Israeli daily Haaretz, represented best by its anti-Israel leftist fanatic Gideon Levy, is celebrating the victory of Hamas as a great moral victory.

HA'ARETZ, THE LIE OF THE LAND by Andrea Levin - Think-Israel

Although Ha'aretz  bills itself as "an independent newspaper with a broadly liberal outlook," many of the opinion writers and some reporters espouse views of the extreme left, and factual accuracy is often sacrificed to their political predilections. Reporter Amira Hass, for example, has just been ordered by the Jerusalem Magistrate's Court to pay $60,000 in damages to the Jewish community of Hebron for her false and incendiary report that Jewish residents there had abused the corpse of a dead Arab shot by Israeli Border police in a violent incident. The allegations were disproved by multiple televised accounts of the event.
The same reporter's stories, replete with distorted and inaccurate charges that Israel is an "apartheid" state, steals Palestinian water, callously targets Palestinians over the age of 12 with sniper-fire, and generally subjugates Arabs out of sheer viciousness, are posted on countless anti-Israel websites. The commentaries of Hass and a score of other Ha'aretz writers (Gideon Samet, Gideon Levy, Akiva Eldar, Baruch Kimmerling, Ze'ev Sternhell, Joseph Algazy, Danny Rubenstein, Moshe Reinfeld and many more) appear alongside those of Noam Chomsky, Hanan Ashrawi, Edward Said and other favorites of such websites (eg: cesr, pmwatch, globalsolidarity, liberate-palestine).
Indeed, a look at such sites and the content of the Ha'aretz articles posted suggests that Ha'aretz writers are in the vanguard of those making the Palestinian case against Israel.

An open letter to Gideon Levy - The Jerusalem Post
By MAURICE OSTROFF. OCTOBER 17, 2012
[...]
In your September 23 2010 interview, published in Huffington Post you made the defamatory accusation that Yitzhak Rabin''s peace agreement with Arafat was a scam (that is a swindle or fraudulent deal).  Don't you see the similarity between this type of baseless accusation and the defamation of your late father?...
Don't you see the similarity between the Haaretz headline "J.. are capable of acting like neo-Nazis" (Meron Rappaport Sep.16, 2007) and the allegation that your late Dad cooperated with Nazis?
I refer to your November 12, 2006..

Haaretz Commentator Gideon Levy Arrested for ‘Spitting’ at Israeli Soldiers”
by Dave Bender
Dec.22.2014.

Israeli police on Monday arrested Gideon Levy, the well-known columnist for the left-wing Haaretz newspaper, for allegedly spitting at and cursing Israeli soldiers at a checkpoint near the Palestinian city of Tulkarm, Israel Radio said.
Gideon Levy, who is strongly pro-Palestinian and infamous for his scathing attacks on the IDF and the Israeli right, was attempting to enter Palestinian Authority area A, without a permit, along with photographer Alex Levac.

The two “confronted [the soldiers], causing a provocation and spitting and cursing at them,” according to The Jerusalem Post. Haaretz later reported that Levy and Levac had been released following questioning.
Earlier in the day, soldiers caught a Palestinian man in an attempted stabbing attack at the checkpoint

Undeterred by Facts, Leftist Pundit Scorns Historic Owners of Jewish Land He Dubbed ‘Palestinian’
By David Israel
26 Adar I 5776 – March 6, 2016
The willingness to admit mistakes is almost a lost art in Israel’s media. In most cases, Israeli opinion makers, when proven wrong, prefer to ignore the whole thing and just move on, nothing to see here, folks. One exception to the rule is Gideon Levy, Haa’retz’s leading anti-Zionist columnist, who used an embarrassing error he had made in his column last week to blithely move the debate’s goalposts to an entirely different part of the field, and ram a new ball through. As victories go, this one required double the lying power and did little to promote dialogue inside Israel’s society. Of course, Gideon Levy to Israeli dialogue is what Sweeney Todd is to haircuts.

An Essential “Privilege”

Gideon Levy is an antisemitic misozionist* who is paid for his poison by an Israeli newspaper. He is a truly despicable human, but sometimes he’s useful as an exemplar of the extremist Israeli please-cut-my-throat Left.
