Unfortunately, Ha’aretz is now refraining from translating Amira’s excellent articles into English, so I had to include the Hebrew originals, above. As she is the only Israeli journalist writing from Gaza. So much for Israeli ‘liberalism’…<\/p>\n

Amos Oz: Hamas responsible for outbreak of Gaza violence<\/a><\/p>\n

For people stupid enough to believe in the humanity and liberalism of this jaded nationalist, please read to geta dose of hypocritical racism. <\/a><\/p>\n

The neighborhood bully strikes again, by Gideon Levy<\/a><\/p>\n

An excellent article by the veteran journalist, who, with Amira Hass, remains almost alone in speaking the unpleasant truth about Israel’s war crimes. <\/a><\/p>\n

Delusions of victory in Gaza, by Zvi Barel<\/a><\/p>\n

While lacking the moral stance of Levy and Hass, Barel nonetheless pours scorn on this mad military murderous adventure, pointing out its likelihood of failure and further, worse conflict ensuing.<\/p>\n

Al Ahram website:<\/span><\/h3>\n

Ready to fire: Saleh Al-Naami examines the prospects for Gaza after the ending of the ceasefire with Israel<\/a><\/p>\n

In this article, Salah Al-Naami, in an article written few days before the attack, is describing what might happen, though his analysis seems to be much too optimistic, as he concludes that on balance, Israel might not strike, due to the preparedness of Hams.<\/p>\n

NY Times website, 30 December<\/span><\/h3>\n

On Fourth Day of Gaza Battle, No End in Sight: By ETHAN BRONNER and TAGHREED EL-KHODARY<\/a><\/p>\n

In a typical example of skewed, faulty journalism, this is an article totally framed from an Israeli perspective. Like on the ground, so in the New York Times – the Israelis have all the lines and space, with the voice of Palestine not heard at all. The attack, they tell us, is on Hamas, rather than on Gaza. Such junk publishing is no less an enemy than the IDF, and is also more influential.<\/p>\n

The guardian website, 30 December<\/span><\/h3>\n

Israel pounds Hamas in Gaza<\/a><\/p>\n

A well informed Guardian article, though still using the terminology and definitions of the Israeli propaganda machine.<\/p>\n
