Confirmation bias refers to a type of selective 
thinking whereby one tends to notice and to look 
for what confirms one's beliefs, and to ignore, 
not look for, or undervalue the relevance of what 
contradicts one's beliefs.

You forgot to mention that three Israeli troops 
had been killed overnight in the same area by Hamas 
terrorists. Hamas regularly sends unguided Katyusha 
and Qassam rockets into densely populated parts of 
Israel in the hope of killing whoever happens to be 
underneath when they go off. 

Any journalist or cameraman covering a nation with 
very active terrorists such as Hizbollah, Hamas and 
Fatah runs the risk of kidnapping, injury or death. 
However unfotunate, these risks 'go with the 
terrirory'. 

Question: 

Is this the same Fidal Shana, the 'Palestinian' who 
may have been working for Iran and that the same day 
the Palestinian Authority released the men who its 
own forces had kidnapped! What's up with this?

And why, exactly, should I believe anything that 
Reuters or Mr. Babaji has to say? Robert has been 
posting lies about Hillary Clinton here for weeks.

Can anyone answer that?
