Here’s a vapid exercise in moral equivalence, from AP Palestinian propagandist Mohammed Daraghmeh: Midest [sic] Extremists Pose Threat to Truce.

RAMALLAH, West Bank - Extremists on both the Israeli and Palestinian sides pose a significant threat to a truce that 13 Palestinian factions agreed to extend this week.

Rogue Palestinian groups, some of which are believed to be funded by the Lebanon-based Hezbollah, remain outside the truce, which is underpinning the new momentum toward peacemaking that has brought a recent drop in violence.

And Jewish extremists could upset the deal if they make good on threats to stage provocative demonstrations aimed at derailing Israel’s planned pullout from the Gaza Strip.

“Jewish extremists” will demonstrate against the Gaza pullout, while “rogue Palestinian groups” will ... uh ... murder innocent people. But the Associated Press wants us to believe they are somehow equivalent.
