“He who knows only his own side of the case knows little of that. His reasons may be good, and no one may have been able to refute them. But if he is equally unable to refute the reasons on the opposite side, if he does not so much as know what they are, he has no ground for preferring either opinion... Nor is it enough that he should hear the opinions of adversaries from his own teachers, presented as they state them, and accompanied by what they offer as refutations. He must be able to hear them from persons who actually believe them...he must know them in their most plausible and persuasive form.”
This article just tells you there's someone in the IDF preoccupied of enemy lives. It doesn't tell you why the two populations are at war, why they did cut the food to civilians for years, does say "there will be errors" while not letting any journalist or the flotilla on the ground to independently check. While complaining that the filmmakers didn't ask their propaganda machine to preemptively check what's being said.
