    Considering how many of my family members died in the Holocaust, this heavily sarcastic statement might be in really poor taste:

    Influencing foreign news, one could see silencing journalists as a form of public relations management

    Nuh uh! Israel would never do that cuz that’s what Hitler did. Hitler’s the one who declared war on the media! Being victims of attempted genocide ourselves, the Jews could never perpetrate such hard-learned lessons on anyone else, right?! Right…?

      I honestly don’t know how to interpret your comment. I’m sorry you lost people to the Holocaust.

      Christian ethics and the notion of suffering as a purifying and cleansing event. Science tells us tho, that people who are hurt are more likely to hurt others. There’s no reason for it to be different with societies and communities.
