As a human being with a sense of compassion and responsibility, I am appalled at this story, and deeply grateful to UK Channel 4 for bringing this story to light. As a PR strategist, I am ashamed of Mr. Regev's exceptional tenacity in using deceptive terminology to "catapult the propaganda" and deny all responsibility for the IDF's clear atrocities and war crimes against civilians in Gaza.
NO! the journalist is lookink only the palestinian people. Only after investigations he could say what he did say.
