We should avoid stereotypes

I enjoyed reading Khaleej Times on December 24, while transiting through Dubai.
However, I would like to point out a rather misleading headline in the paper.
One of the headlines read: "Israelis celebrate death of Palestine toddler".
It alarmed me but upon further reading, I realised that those who celebrated were alleged Jewish extremists. The headline does not convey this at all. It misled readers to think that this is what the majority of Israelis are doing, i.e. celebrating the death of the Palestine toddler. We shouldn't be encouraging bias and stereotypes.
