Western media's bias against Arab fighers

Everybody knows, Western media is biased against Arabs. Articles about IDF wounding (not even killing!) Arabs get plastered all over front-pages of news-sites like Yahoo! and CNN.

Meanwhile, Arab fighters' heroic every day efforts at killing Israelis with rockets and missiles either don't get publicized at all, or are carried only by little-known media outlets.

Similarly, while the whole world is awed by the number of unintended civilian victims of IDF in Lebanon, there is hardly any mention of the Hezbollah's intent to kill as many Israeli civilians as possible:

"We are going to make Israel not safe for Israelis. There will be no place they are safe," Safiadeen told a conference [...] "We will expand attacks," he said. "The people who came to Israel, (they) moved there to live, not to die. If we continue to attack, they will leave."
so what, if the Arabs are too weak, to actually do that at the moment? It is the thought, that counts, is not it?

Such is the Western media's love for IDF, they forget to even honor their own Christian soldiers, who've inflicted much higher casualties on civilian Serbs during NATO's bombing of Yugoslavia, than IDF did on Lebanese.

This unequal treatment is grossly unfair and it must end! IDF are weaklings, who don't want to fight — if it weren't for the Arabs' constant attacks, they would not be fighting at all. Where is the glory in such forced self-defense? Arab militias, on contrast, are the glorious fighters, who continue to relentlessly attack Jews and thus deserve all the fame!
