HuffPoWatch: Attack In Jordan Targets Israeli Embassy Convoy

Today the Huffington Post published an article with the above title, and gave it front and center placement on the "World" headline section. In summary, the story is that a bomb went off nearby a convoy of Israeli diplomats heading home from Jordan. No one was killed or even injured, so it would seem that there really wasn't much of a story there. You can check out the article for yourself if you like.

Now on the one hand, this is an article about Israelis. And as we have discovered, that usually means a high amount of traffic and comments. On the other hand, the Israelis aren't doing anything wrong in the article, so there isn't a jumping-off point for criticism, an anti-Zionist would have to start from scratch.

Regardless, at this point there are no comments, even though the article has been posted for about five hours. Interesting, eh?
