Hevron

What has been going on in Hevron the past week or so is enough to turn your stomach and
I am not talking about those the media likes to refer as lawbreakers. These kids and people protesting are heroes who deserve all the credit in the world. The Govt is wrong here. But, right now I am really and more importantly talking about how the media is protraying everything that is going on there.
The media, the so-called watchdog of democracy, has once again gone out of its way to portray the events from one side of the story. There is no semblance of balance at all to the presentation of events. As long as your attacking right wingers, apparantly everything goes.

To get a more complete (and accurate) picture of what is happening it's important to find alternative news sources. Read one such account here plus there are some good pictures here.
