Israel Radio ignores Palestinian attacks in morning interviews

Dr. Aaron Lerner Date: 7 May, 2007

While Israel Radio covered the ongoing and escalating Palestinian rocket
attacks from Gaza this morning, there was no follow up either in reports
speculating on an Israeli response - military or diplomatic (for example
speculating what FM Livni could do about it at the meeting she will attend
this Thursday in Cairo with Egyptian FM Ahmed Abdul Gheit and Jordan FM
Abdelelah al-Khatib).

Instead, interviews with MK Binyamin Netanyahu, Minister of Welfare and
Social Services Isaac Herzog (Labor) and MK Menahem Ben-Sasson (Kadima)
focused on the future of the Olmert Government without even mentioning the
Palestinian attacks in passing.
