Ya think?

I can usually tell about a publication's politics by scanning the headlines. Let's take a gander at Arutz Sheva's headlines today, shall we?

Quote:
Iran: We Produce, Export Weapons

IDF: Shooting During Arrest Was Justified

Al-Qaeda Connections in Gaza

Hamas Calls on Egypt to Send Army to Jerusalem

Supreme Moslem Council: Temple Mount is Jewish
Now, I'll grant that I can't imagine living in such a tiny country under a 60-year threat of annihilation from my neighbors. It has to get to you after a while. And I don't doubt that al Qaeda, being the loose non-organization it is, has tendrils all over the place. But this really is about the same stuff Arutz prints every single day: Iran's going to attack us, terrorists are on our borders, Arabs hate Jews.

Then again, I suppose it's not paranoia if they're really after you.
