Someone at the AP went off their meds with this tweet: Apparently, no one has keys to the closet with all the red flags.
As much of world watches Gaza war in horror, members of Congress fall over each other to support Israel: http://t.co/DepO2etLQS

Holy crap.So you know, this is the story the tweet was purportedly based on:
http://bigstory.ap.org/article/israel-war-us-lawmakers-give-full-support
Suffice to say, the story reads differently. In other words, without making judgments. You know, the way you're supposed to do it in the first place.
UPDATE:
No apologies from the AP, but at least they walked the tweet back:
Hello from @AP, and thanks for your feedback on this tweet: https://t.co/AIG1Z3sHtQ. We've now sent a revised tweet: https://t.co/97ZEZby801
