Mideast Code Words

Front page Oct 9 Jewish Week headline: “Israelis’ New Normal …” Normal? But the Palestinian murder of Jews is obscene; it can never again be “normal.”

Michele Chabin’s lead paragraph: “… As the violence in and around Jerusalem and the West Bank has escalated …”  “Violence”? “Escalated”?  But those are the code words used by Israel’s enemies to absolve Palestinians of responsibility for their deadly terrorism. 
If our own Jewish Week won’t tell it like it is, who will?
