Israeli soldier killed by Lebanese sniper - Haaretz blames it on Israel

The Jerusalem Post is reporting that a 'lone' Lebanese gunman has fired at Israeli soldiers on the border and killed one soldier. This is clearly a very serious incident. But look at how Haaretz is reporting the story on its front page - relying on the Lebanese army's version of events to spin the story.

16 Dec 2013 Update. There was, of course, no 'border crossing' by Israeli soldiers. The soldier killed - Shlomi Cohen- was murdered on Israeli soil in yet another unprovoked attack by a Lebanese Jihadist 'soldier' who will not be prosecuted, and will now become a national hero for his actions. And of course no apology from Haaretz for its disgraceful reporting. Honest Reporting has details on other disgraceful reporting of this in the UK.
