BTW I love this narrative that the media treats Israel unfair. Victim complex.

That's an article on wikipedia... Look I am sure I can find ones that say the exact opposite. Who you want to believe is up to you. Are there cases where children and healthcare workers get hurt? I have no doubt of it. I would say more whenever you have an 18-25 year old soldier in a high stress situation and an us vs them mentality, you will have individuals acting against orders. You will have people seeing red in front of their eyes and turning to violence.

Media is there to catch that violence, because it generates clicks. As far as media being unfair... media, no matter where you read it and no matter how respectable the source is, is there to convey an opinion. It can be presented in whichever way in order to meet the author's agenda. That's why I personally try to read media from as many sources as possible and read things with a grain of salt. I don't treat it as facts, because for the most part media outlets have owners and agendas behind them.
