Israel losing the PR war
A. Farber, in New Jersey 19 Mars 2002
I’m sick and tired of hearing slanted TV reporting on CNN and other news stations. When Palestinians (especially children) are killed, we in the US hear about it over and over again. However, when the terrorists kill Israelis -- all that the US media usually reports is that "10 people killed". Rarely do they clarify that some were young children and infants, as in the Orthodox Temple being attacked in March.
People definitely pay more attention when they hear that children are killed. Don’t you want American emathy on your side, and not the Palestinians? Don’t wait for American media to do it for you – they’re on the Arab side unfortunately.
Israel should let the media into their hospitals so the world can see the injured. These people are severely injured, but the world never gets to see that. You must do more to get public opinion on your side. My relatives live in Jerusalem and work in a hospital. We heard from them that 7 people from one family were killed. This was never reported in US. Americans need to hear this stuff.
