Politicians notoriously make promises they won't fulfill, especially right-wing ones. Obama, in fact, broke every major promise he made, yet too few Americans know it.
Netanyahu offered to dialog with protest leaders through senior officials without explaining that Israelis want action, not talk.
In addition, Bonner and Kershner omitted a key issue entirely - Israel's rage to develop settlements, disproportionately benefitting residents in them at the expense of mainland social justice, besides stealing Palestinian land, a topic America's media never mention.
Neither writer discussed disproportionality, yet Israelis prioritize it, wanting all of them treated equitably. It's why why protests began in the first place - over unaffordable housing, because settlement development takes precedence over providing it.
It's a policy protesters want changed, but don't expect America's media to explain, including Times writers like Bonner, Kershner and all others. They're paid to mislead, suppress, deceive and lie, not inform.
