A sad reality is that in reporting on the Arab/Palestinian -Israel conflict, facts and events may be egregiously misrepresented and truth disregarded altogether. Investigations reveal that some reporters and photographers regularly stage new evenst to shoot. Scripted scenes are acted out, depicting fictitious Israeli oppression, then released internationally as formal or informal reporting or facts. These highly distorted images, beamed electronically worldwide, aim to plant one picture in the global conscience : a viciously oppressive, Goliath like Israeli pitted against brave little Palestinian David.

Sandra addresses the issue of the Media created frenzy we often see about Israel and gives you examples of some of the lies that have been depicted. Israel has a voice and we need to listen.
