At around 1:30 this afternoon, AP released a report titled “Palestinian infighting in Gaza escalates, 4 killed.”

It concluded thus:

Abbas’ troops put on a show of force in Ramallah, marching in formation through the center.

Amir Qimari, 25, a food company employee, watched the military display with dismay.

“This became an oppressive and non-democratic government,” he said of the Western-backed Abbas and his West Bank prime minister, Salam Fayyad. “What they say Hamas is doing in Gaza, they are doing here.”

Security forces also patrolled the halls of Ramallah’s hospital where some of those injured in the rally that was broken up were being treated. The forces prevented reporters from speaking to the injured.

Wow. Such accounts could be damaging to the illicit U.S.-Israel-Fatah “alliance.”

Ah, but wouldn’t you know…

four hours later, an update came under the title “Palestinian infighting in Gaza escalates, 9 killed.”

… wherein those last few lines are nowhere to be found.

This, folks, is AP, a.k.a., Apple Polishers; a.k.a., Absolutist Propaganda; a.k.a., Allied Pillagers; a.k.a., Apartheid Preservers; etc.
