First, an editorial about Israel's recent assaults on its human rights organizations: "That is what is happening, and we not only let Israel get away with it, we fund it. The US could stop it, but instead, we fuel it." ... Our feature presentation today digs deep into the myths of Israel’s so-called “self defense strategy” (they of course are never the aggressor, always the victim). Nora Barrows-Friedman and Greg Stupak, both journalists with the Electronic Intifada, discuss the media’s role in perpetuating the myths of Israeli hegemony.
