Israeli news sources like Ha'aretz write with an anti-Hamas bias.

Arab news sources like Al Jazeera write an an anti-Israel bias.

And it seems like all mainstream news sources are putting Israel in a bad light. A lot of them say they get their info from Palestinian reports, so that makes sense.

I'm not looking to debate the situation on who the real enemy is here. (PM me if you want to do that.) I just want to know if there's any news source out there that can describe the situation in a complete neutral, unbiased point of view. Is anyone up for the challenge? Perhaps I can offer some points if there's a really good one.

I've taken enough TOK classes to already know that.
Which is why I've presented the challenge.

You're not going to be able to find unbiased news on in Gaza, especially considering the fact that the Israelis have shut off Gaza from reporters, but Al Jazeera's reporters have been ballsy enough to go in there and get the reports, and thus most of the news about what's specifically going on in Gaza has been coming through Al Jazeera.

Even if reporters were given access to Gaza by the Israelis, it wouldn't be any less biased. Just about everyone has an opinion on the matter. Your best bet is to decide whether you think Zionism, Israel's formation and existence, and actions since then are legitimate or not, and whether or not you believe the Palestinians are right in fighting. From there, you can basically come to an understanding of the current conflict with some context, regardless of who started what or who's killing whom in a somewhat more balanced perspective (even this will still be biased, but at the very least, they'll have real sources to point to - just be mindful of their perspective / biases, and the sources they show you and don't show you).

Hamas rockets Israel, Israel invades Hamas with a big army. Everyone gets mad at Israel for some reason.

There you go.

Israel were the ones that broke the truce though so you have no point.
