I’m grateful to Tal Schneider, a foreign news reporter for Maariv who interviewed me earlier today for the newspaper’s Daily Interview feature. It’s a profile of a newsmaker in interview format. For Hebrew readers, she captured my ideas exceedingly well and I was pleased with the result.
Sometimes the TV interviews, in which they edit snippets of my ideas into tiny sound bytes, leave something to be desired. Not to mention that in “packaging” me for their audience, they tend to play up the more lurid, sensational aspects, which isn’t at all how I see myself or how I want my audience to see me. This blog isn’t tabloid fodder, though it may be easier to sell it to a broad audience in that fashion as if it were.
For the fashionistas among you, in this photo I’m wearing the Jewish Voice for Peace Hope T-shirt.
Many of the news channels in Israel quoted you couple of days ago with the Iranian mysterious explosion
I would like to disagree with this approach. The Middle East is unlike the U.S.A., in the Middle East words kill alot quicker then they do in the U.S.. For a peace activist, criticising Israel residing in the U.S.. Sitting in front of his comfortable recliner. There’s a high level of cynicisim. I’m sure if a murderer was at his pursuit he would have no problem killing him, and would be deeply upset if somebody called him a terrorist. And so his claim on the matter with the Mosad being involved with the bomb blast in Iran on Saturday is highly disputable too. The Debka site which gets things usually right, and would be the first to know if the Mosad was involved. Totally denied such a reality, it’s not for nothing almost no ambulances were allowed into the area either. And so Debkas claim that such facts are simply not possible, due to the circumstances are way more reliable. But a Peace Activist with an agenda will know better?? Because his agenda is alive and well. Claim you know everything, and always get things right. But most people will see right through your agenda!
Thanks for giving me the laugh of the night!
Right back at ya, sister!
Thanks Richard for all the information.
Your source is a former Israeli minister?
“The Debka site which gets things usually right. . .”
Giggle giggle.
