It features excellent commentators like Amira Hass and Gideon Levy. US dailies have no one like them. It also publishes shameless articles.
On August 10, it headlined "Top Israel official: Iran nuclear threat bigger than one Israel faced before Six Day War."
Israel faced no threat then whatever. Former Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin later admitted that Egypt's Nasser didn't threaten Israel. "We must be honest with ourselves," he said. "We decided to attack him."
Former General Mordechai said 16 years of planning went into "perfect(ing) the "initial eighty minutes."
Former General Haim Barlev admitted Israel wasn't threatened. "(W)e had never thought of such a possibility."
Other Israeli leaders and generals said the same thing. It's in the public record. Haaretz knows it or should. Now it's hyping another false existential threat.
An unnamed Israeli official claims Iran points a "sword at our throat (much) sharper than the sword at our throat before the Six Day War.""We will absolutely not deliberately drag the United States into a war," he added. "If we decide to undertake an operation, it must be an operation that does not rely on the expectation of igniting some large chain reaction."
