Fake news can be dangerous

Some moronic Israeli newspaper has decided to tell the world Indonesia is going to normalise relations with Israel.

There are only two reasons to print such utter rubbish:

It's just a cheap rag after clicks and doesn't care about the truth

Their intention is to create political tension in Indonesia.


Whichever it is, rubbish like this can cause real world problems.


Do us all a favour - don't believe crap of this nature without checking it first. The Indonesian government has made its position clear, and it won't be opening talks with Israel any time soon.

Itamar Eichner is the reporter in question.

If he had any journalistic integrity, he seems to have left it on a bus or dropped it down a drain.

I knew I'd seen this rubbish before. The Jerusalem Post reported similar lies a few years ago.
