UPDATE: We are pleased to note after lodging a complaint with the National Post, they have now amended their headline to acknowledge that the dead Palestinian man was an “alleged Palestinian gunman” and also included the IDF’s statement that the Palestinian man was armed and fired towards IDF officers in their article. We thank the National Post for taking immediate corrective action. ORIGINAL ALERT:On July 26, CTV News, The Toronto Star, and The National Post published a report by the Associated Press entitled: “Palestinian man killed by Israeli troops during arrest raid in West Bank refugee camp”. Untold in this headline or in the body of the report, Israel contends that the dead Palestinian man was actually a gunman. According to a Times of Israel report, the IDF said Palestinian gunmen opened fire toward Israeli forces, and rioters hurled stones and other objects.
