Getting away with murder : Information Clearing House - ICH: "YOU'VE got to hand it to the Israeli public relations flacks: only they could convince you that killing children was an act of self-defence.

As the recent bombing of Gaza began, Israeli Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni gave instructions for the Foreign Ministry to take 'emergency measures to adapt Israel's public relations to the ongoing escalation in the Gaza Strip'. Livni went on to call for foreign language speakers to put Israel's case to the world."

Broken Spring?       : Information Clearing House

Broken Spring?       : Information Clearing House This is a sequel to my June 2011 article, ‘After the spring’, on the upheavals in the Arab world.
