    Do you have anything to back this up? I’ve never felt The Guardian was using euphemisms

      They are supposed to act as the progressive paper in the UK but when it comes down to it they tow the line.
      Somewhat less obvious but still.
      Already clear from long ago.
      A good example is Jullian Assange and how they fully went along with smearing him and printing lies.

      Do you have anything to back this up?

      There is no obligation to do what anyone can look up themselves.
      Anyway, this took me 3 seconds to find:

      half a dozen current and former staff at the BBC, Sky, ITN, the Guardian and the Times have disclosed the extent of anti-Palestinian prejudice in their newsrooms.

        Do you have any examples of the Guardian dancing around the word ‘killed’? The fact you have to resort to their reporting on unrelated issues seems to suggest that’s not really the case

          I gave you a link showing their anti-Palestinian prejudice .
          You fixating on this one word while that detail is not my point and a deliberate misinterpretation of my statement: “Never honest reporting from the UK regime press”.
          Also calling that link unrelated, being negaive and dismissive sure smells like the usual sneaky hasbara tricks.
          Nice try tho, now go away.

            You gave a link accusing them of quoting Israeli officials

            You don’t seem to be able to back up your accusation that they have been avoiding to use the word ‘killed’. So why make it?

            The Guardian is not misinforming their readers about what’s happening in Gaza.

            The way you’re talking about this is telling me that you’re too far gone to look at these things objectively
