The title of the documentary suggests a certain amount of bias by the producers. A google search of reviews confirms this. Don't want to deflect the thread any more so I'll leave it at that.
I agree. I'd describe myself as a liberal, but the liberal media has completely failed to hold any scrutiny up to issues like this. They're so into the "don't criticise minority groups, because it might give fascists ammunition" that you end up with homophobic, misogynistic, racist and criminal behaviour getting no coverage whatsoever. But the reality is that there are problematic aspects of most cultures in the world (including our own), and all the media is doing by ignoring it when it's about minorities is handing over the debate to the racists.Agree the mail are scum, second only to the sun. The problem is when the daily mail are the only ones to report promptly (or at all) on mass scale grooming and rape of underage girls across towns or horrific incidents like cologne.
Meanwhile the more "liberal" papers would rather spend acres of space on some cricketer complimenting a woman's eyes or a college lads society publishing an offensive joke. If they are letting the mail drove these stories with a racist angle, whose fault is it?

You seem to be confusing Israel's treatment of Palestinians in the West Bank with that of the residents of Israel which consists of all races and religions. I'm not defending Israel's treatment of some Palestinians but that's a totally different issue to that of its treatment of its own residents which is what you implied in your post.Leave your fixed views at the door, open your mind and give it a watch.
The footage doesn't lie, however very brutal but still give you a real insight to how a so called first world country Israel like Germany treat people as second class citizens.
Well it's like the boy who cried wolf, isn't it? They're so busy stirring up dubious racial shit that when there's a legitimate story, people are legitimately sceptical. No, I'd be as unlikely as you to believe a story about Muslims that appeared only in the Daily Mail or similar.So because the liberal media doesn't cover homophobic, misogynistic, racist and criminal behaviour (which I don't agree is the case) we should accept the coverage from a media source that has presented it's stories in a homophobic, misogynistic and racist way and sometimes resorted to criminal behaviour to make these stories in the first place?
