Adele Biton finally released from hospital; “news” media and B’Tselem still ignore her





Adele Biton finally released from hospital; “news” media and B’Tselem still ignore her


Adele, 3, nearly killed by Palestinian rock-throwers - now left with traumatic brain injury.

Background

Adele Biton is a three-year-old Israeli girl who was left with severe traumatic brain injury as the result of a March 2013 Palestinian rock-throwing attack on her family.
As this documentary video that we produced reveals, major players in the Western “news” media, and a prominent “human rights” group completely ignored what happened to Adele — yet engaged in a sympathy campaign for a five-year-old Palestinian rock-thrower who was stopped from his attempts to harm Jews, like her:

February 5, 2014: Adele was released from hospital, after 11 months of clinging to life; fundraiser started for her

On February 6, 2014, news broke in Israel that Adele was finally allowed to go home from the hospital, nearly a year after she was nearly killed in the Palestinian rock-throwing attack.  The story described a fundraising effort that is underway to help pay to have the Bitons’ home outfitted to accommodate Adele’s special needs:
Adelle will need her house to be wheelchair accessible and requires specialized furniture, given the lasting damage she still suffers from. She will also need intensive attention, meaning her parents will have to find professional assistance to make sure their three other daughters are properly cared for.
While the government will subsidize some of the expenses for home renovation and a caregiver, additional funds to the tune of $100,000 are still needed to complete the major changes and make sure the family will be able to rebuild their lives.
This coming Sunday, February 9, a fundraising drive will be held by the city of Raanana and the OneFamily organization which aids terror victims, with a goal of raising the needed funds for the Biton family.
The first event of the fundraising drive will be held at Raanana’s Ohel Ari synagogue at 8:30 p.m., where Adelle’s mother Adva will speak, along with the mayor of the city, Ze’ev Bielski.
Those interested in assisting should contact OneFamily volunteer Shoshana Baker: shoshbaker@gmail.com.

The “news” media and “human rights” groups completely ignored Adele – again

Predictably, the same “news” media and “human rights” group that fell all over themselves to elicit sympathy for the five-year-old Palestinian rock-thrower, once again completely ignored this update about Adele.  Here are screencaps from searches conducted on February 8, 2014 at the three main offenders depicted in our video: the BBC, the Daily Mail, UPI, and the “human rights” group, B’Tselem, showing that her name (still) returns zero results:

08Feb14 DailyMail - Adele Biton - no results
08Feb14 UPI no adele biton
08Feb14 BTSelem - Adele Biton - no results

The Huffington Post, which glorifies and sympathizes with Palestinian terrorists, completely ignored Adele, again

And last but not least, the Huffington Post, the most-read online “newspaper” in the world, which depicts Palestinian rock-throwers in pictorials that make them appear as machismo, Rolling Stone-type music heroes, and presents weepy-eyed pictorials like this of Palestinian children whose fathers are held to account by Israel for their murderous campaigns – completely ignored Adele, as well:

But it’s not as if Huffington Post’s army of researchers and editors were falling down on the job – they found lots of fascinating “news” stories to post on its front page, including:
