How Many People On A 20' Boat

Israel if the newspaper is the most balanced Sole 24 Ore.

Che i quotidiani italiani su Israele diano una pessima informazione, è noto. Se vai a sinistra, Manifesto e Liberazione, trovi i soliti riflessi condizionati anti-israeliani, triti e ritriti, remains of the season gone, when the Kefia was all the rage and left the young were also used for towing. If you go right, you already know. If, however, go on daily moderate, between the center and center-left, see Courier, Press and Republic, are a priori defense of Israel, long introduction of condemnation of anti-Semitism and, gifts prior to the wisdom of Israeli leaders and heavy silence as tombs on Palestinian casualties. Just look at the Corsera in recent days, before the massacre of 61 Palestinians and two Israelis. The Israeli victims of Qassam rocket appeared with photos and foot in the foreground and title to the entire page. Palestinian victims, unknown number, children unnamed, well-hidden in the blank spaces between the lines. Today you could not give an account of the massacre, but it is commented only on the Israeli point of view. Nothing on the four children killed while playing football. No item will not say the Palestinian Authority, not say Arab, not Israeli, but at least to comment on the facts that have not been told (the usual Yehoshua and then Appelfeld, Morris, Keret). A disgusting, unworthy information denying its raison d'etre: to inform.
to find some 'equilibrium, we need to go abroad. Or, incredibly, in Il Sole 24 Ore. Where a good left, Ugo Tramballi, who also wrote a great book on the subject (the olive tree and stone, 2002), makes clear analysis and without bias. It speaks of provocations Hamas, its strategy of death and fear of terror in which to live part of the Jewish people. And he explains how Israel once again has gone far beyond self-defense, it being for the umpteenth time "a prisoner of his employment." Just a little at peace with decency. But even that little, it is hard to find and seems daring even dangerous.
