Notice how in the media, passive voices are used when Israeli is doing the damage, whereas the active voice is used for Hamas. It's never, "Israeli soldiers fired an artillery round at a UN School". Interestingly, even the BBC, is being tougher on Mark Regev than our silent friend James.

Strangely(?)enough, that was the Communist language. E.g.: "Comrades, mistakes have been made".
