CHAPTER

Shifting Sentiment and Concerns about Media Portrayal

This chapter discusses the rising support for Palestine in the war, highlighting accusations of anti-Semitism against the extreme left wing of the British Left, and the chanting of anti-Jewish slogans in Australia. It explores how world sentiment has shifted from sympathy for Israel to sympathy for the Palestinians, and raises concerns about the media's portrayal of the conflict. The chapter also touches on the use of human shields by Hamas, the military might of Israel, the potential consequences of a ground war, and the long-term effects of keeping Hamas in power.
