The Times cartoonist Peter Brookes published this on Oct. 18th following the death of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar. Biden remarked that “shortly after the October 7 massacres“, he “directed Special Operations personnel and…intelligence professionals to work side-by-side with their Israeli counterparts to help locate and track Sinwar and other Hamas leaders hiding in Gaza“. However, the dishonest portrayal of Biden’s reaction to Sinwar’s killing is not the even close to representing the most deceptive element of Brookes’ cartoon. An anonymous account on X posted this extremely apt response to the Times cartoon. As we’ve demonstrated consistently on these pages, with few exceptions, this “ethical degeneration” has been on full display in the British media’s coverage of Israel’s war with the antisemitic extremist group in Gaza.
