Why is it, when Israel bombs Iran hospitals and shoots unarmed civilians in Gaza, the most the west sees is a small mention in the news. But should Iran fire a missile at Israel it is front page news. I have asked this before, what hold does Israel have over the west? Why doesn't the news have headline banners decrying the illegal attack on Iran by the USA and Israel?

Israeli ambulances were set on fire in London. Clearly this is wrong, but it was headline news across the papers and TV news broadcasts. At the same time, civilians in southern Lebanon and in Gaza were being murdered by the Israeli forces - a small report in the news.

Why is the west so scared of the Israelis?
