Josh, I hate to say it but... I have a problem with your attitude to JPost. It's like saying people can't post article on ednet that came from the Times, and only the Guardian will be accepted (though I note you haven't indicated what IS acceptable).
Israel has a very free press. In this case the Jerusalem Post was first with the story because they had a reporter sitting outside ALL DAY talking to people, getting comments, sending things through to their chief editor etc. Your preference for a defact boycott of a member of the free press because it's based in Israel is worrying.
