The original source is > the Islamic Association for Palestine site: I got 256 hits on Google. The original source is apparently Israel Radio in Hebrew, Col Yisrael, commenting on Sharon's remarks, although of course it has received wide coverage in the Arab press and on white supremicist sites. I see not a single denial. > Regardless of what Sharon may or may not believe, I > don't think he could have said this without the major > media jumping all over it, in the way that Bush > recently got pinged for referring to the people > of Pakistan as 'Pakis' (a racial slur in Britain). I don't know. Accusations of antisemitism in the US are extremely vicious and business destroying, and mainstream newspapers will generally not print anything which might cause them to be so labeled. "Pakis" and other maligned groups do not generally enjoy this special dispensation. As Gore Vidal is fond of saying, there is considerably more freedom to criticize Israel in Israel, than there is to criticize Israel in the United States. > Of course, one could take the self-fullfiling viewpoint > that the fact that this quote only appears in extreme > fringe publications is simply proof of total Jewish control > of the major media. I prefer to apply Occam's Razor. I'm kind of torn here. I certainly don't wish to adopt the position that nothing is credible that doesn't get mainstream media coverage. But you are right that it's a bit suspicious. When the false story was planted that CNN had used archived footage to simulate Palestinians celebrating the WTC flattening, the denials were swift, even though the story had only appeared on the Internet. I see no denials of this even more widely reported story, and I find that suspicious too. Newspapers regularly refuse even well-written op-ed pieces which point out Israel's warts. One recalls the recent firings of Managing Editor Jean Ryan and City Editor Dale Seth from the Oneida Daily Dispatch for daring to place the word "Jewish" preceeding the word "terrorist" in an editorial about Israel's formation, one of American Journalism's many unwritten taboos about coverage of Israel. I'm going to go out on a limb here, and say that Sharon's remarks were probably quoted accurately, based on a preponderance of the evidence, even though, as you point out, they were not repeated in the New York Times, or even in the Oneida Daily Dispatch. -- Eric Michael Cordian 0+ O:.T:.O:.
