Watching the breaking news at BBC World about the terrorist attack at a yeshiva in Jerusalem right now. The title is ‘ISRAEL VIOLENCE: 9 people killed including attacker”.

For me it is interesting to see that the terrorist is counted in in the amount of killed people. Next to that the header “Israel violence” gives me a biased taste. Am I wrong?

In another report there is an interview with a certain Jerry Lewis. The interviewer states that the students at the yeshiva are learning about zionism. He is corrected by this Jerry Lewis, who says: “No, there are learning about judaism. They are reading scriptures and discussing them”.

There are no critical words about Gaza, where people are celebrating the newest killing of innocent religious students, by shooting in the air and kissing the soil.

The first report I saw, was followed by a commercial of World Travel & Tourism Council in Dubai 20-22 april 2008. Is this lack of critical questions caused by this?

Op de website van het NIK, het Nederlands Israëlitisch Kerkgenootschap, lees ik het bericht dat anti-joodse passages in de Tridentijnse liturgie zullen worden aangepast. Er wordt zelfs haast gemaakt en verwacht wordt dat de Latijnse teksten vòòr Goede Vrijdag nog aangepast zullen zijn.
Dat ik dit nog een keer mee mag maken…
