Palestinian Media Watch shows a children's TV show, shown last week, that refers to a series of Israeli cities as "occupied."
TV host to girl: "You live in Jerusalem. Do you visit the 1948 occupied cities (Israeli cities)?" Girl (Lujayn): "I’ve been to Hebron." TV host: "No, Hebron is a city [in the Palestinian Authority] that we all can enter. The occupied cities – such as Lod, Ramle, Haifa, Jaffa, Acre (all Israeli cities) – have you visited them?" Girl: “I’ve been to Haifa and Jaffa.” TV host: "Tell us, are they beautiful?" Girl: "Yes…" TV host: "We hope all children of Palestine will be able to go to the occupied territories, which we don't know and have never been able to see. Personally, I have never been there."
Isn't it interesting that they do not refer to Hebron as "occupied," but Haifa is?
This blog may be a labor of love for me, but it takes a lot of effort, time and money. For over 18 years and 38,000 articles I have been providing accurate, original news that would have remained unnoticed. I've written hundreds of scoops and sometimes my reporting ends up making a real difference. I appreciate any donations you can give to keep this blog going.
