(April 16, 2002)

The average Israel supporter has watched several, possibly dozens of interviews and press conferences with Palestinian and Arab figures and wondered why the questions never seem to be challenging their fundamental thesis of the legitimizing terror and the underlying causes of the deteriorating situation, the escalating violence.

This is the psychological war for which Israel does not have the resources on the same scale as the Arab and Palestinian media, but it was entirely ignored at policy planning level. Israel has no media allies to wage this war - no satellite news channels to counter the barrage of images and one-sided information , but there are good articles, good illustrations available for reference and pointers. Both Israel and the Jewish communities around the world are contending with this, but there are important and significant things we can do.
