Excellent, as far as it goes.

Comments: It doesn't discuss whether Muhammad al-Dura actually died. Recent photos have shown him moving his hand to look out between his fingers after his supposed death and there have been comments about the lack of blood on him, his father, or the wall.
How much of Jenin was destroyed? I've heard it was about the size of three football fields.
Some of the photos with the candles, especially the government meeting, show it was daylight outside the drawn curtains. They would have had more light just opening the curtains.

I'm sure you've already seen in the Bible that in the last days people will rather believe the lie than the truth. These swine did the same to us during the Rhodesian Bush War days during the 70's:- workers from various factories in the capital used to take their lunch break on Municipality lawns and then have a lie down before starting work. The media swine took pictures of these workers sleeping and made big headlines of 'Rhodesians massacre innocent blacks'. This was swallowed hook, line and sinker by the bleeding hearts brigade. I really wish you much success in poking these lies where it hurts the most.

The propaganda against Israel has got to be stopped. Media must be held accountable for accurate reporting. This has been a pattern throughout the Arab World. They tell us a story and we must believe it is true even when the evidence points to it being propaganda. When will it end? When the West wakes up and stands up for the truth!

The muslims cant tell the truth about anything.Have you ever known them to be truthful about anything.They have always spoken out of both sides of their mouth.

would the newspapers be liable for damages if they were sued ?

The price of Liberty is eternal vigilance. This kind of propoganda war will never stop. I believe the best defense is a good offense. In this case, news stories about things like 'honor killings,' female circumcision, the permissibility of rape of non-Muslim women, etc should be published far and wide. For instance, there is a Coptic Christian minister on Egyptian tv who is winning followers by challenging some basic Muslim beliefs. Oh, yes, another story worth reporting is the number of converts to Christianity from Islam in places like Algeria and Iraq.

Even though we all know the kind of production Palestinians put on for the International media, it is hard for me to stomach the fact that the same media outlets that showed the original faked footage around the clock have buried the story sabout the outcome of this eight year story. I find the international community's attitude towards Israel is still rooted in some kind irrational hate. I am very proud of Karsenty and have written to him to personally thank him for his dedication to this cause but where do us Jews stand in a world that seems happy to allow lies to become fact in so many people's minds?
