SUMMARY OF OP-EDS FROM THE HEBREW PRESS
Yediot Ahronot’s author, a resident of the lower Galilee Circassian community of Kfar Kama who served in the Israel Air Force, comments, „I am a non-Jew, and I carry the cursed disease of Islam, as it was called last week by [Israeli media personality] Avri Gilad. And although the community in which I live arrived in this land before the establishment of the State of Israel, and has never displayed the least sign of anti-Israel sentiment
– but rather for the most part, has been, and it doesn’t matter for what reason, at your side. The vulgar generality, according to which Muslims carry a disease, hurt me as well. The author professes that, „The difference (in Hebrew) between a generalization (הכללה) and a curse (קללה) is very thin and amounts to one letter. A generalization, Mr. Gilad, is the pseudo-mathematical method of idiots and the sophisticated.”
Ma’ariv asserts that, „The conclusion by Razi Barkai that some of the media has come out against Netanyahu is a misleading error. Barkai is a senior journalist and revered radio announcer who has already seen and heard everything. Razi got a bit confused. The correct sentence is totally opposite: Benjamin Netanyahu has come against the free press in Israel.”
Yisrael Hayom contends that, „In the industrial zones of Judea and Samaria, there is coexistence between Jews and Arabs. At the Ariel University Center, Jews and Arabs study together. Far away from politics, a system of understanding is being created between human beings.”
