The Telegraph loses its moral compass

What does the Telegraph think it was doing today, publishing a picture of the 'grieving mother' of the human bomb terrorist who blew up the shopping mall in Netanya and killed five Israelis yesterday? It thus drew a moral equivalence between the grief of the bomber's mother and the grief of the victims he murdered. Would the Telegraph have published pictures of the 'grieving mothers' of the 7/7 bombers, I wonder? Has it now joined those other examples of Britain's degraded and venomous media for whom dead Israelis count for less than other victims?
