Technology has come far, even in these few years I have been living in this world. It is now possible to do things that a technologically-clumsy guy like me wouldn't have been able to do 5 years ago. But with this advance in technology comes a danger: misinformation.

With the rise of the World Wide Web, it has become so much easier to access everything, whether it's sports news or music or comics. However, there is so much misinformation online that research can sometimes be dangerous, especially for those without good research skills.

But even for those with research skills, it is a challenge to see through all the bias around us. Something even harder is to develop our own individual opinions by judging facts rather than being shaped by biases.

Here are the top 10 pictures from a Google Images search on "israeli palestinian conflict."

All of them are very powerful images. But I would say that more than half of them aren't in the least favourable to the Israelis. Is that simply because Israelis are the oppressors? To some, perhaps. But this is an issue that is far too complicated for Google to suggest to us. Don't get me wrong, Google probably won't even dream of presenting a bias regarding such a diplomatic hot potato. But the bias is clearly there, intentional or not, and it is everyone's job to see through it ourselves. But of course, there are always those who fail to do so.
