Premature cheering on the Israeli right![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Seemingly, at least, everything is very simple and nice. First, Israel displayed perfect loyalty to the U.S., which presumably will pay it back in economic and political coin. Second, Israel haters, led by France, have lined up with America's rivals, and Washington, presumably, will pay them back. The cold wind blowing from Iraq toward the four-sided forum will yank the road map out of the Quartet's hands and momentously return it to Washington. Third, President Bush has sent the UN into rehab, which is something that the disciples of Israel's "UN is irrelevant" camp always like to gloat over. Jerusalem should not derive satisfaction from the American decision to ignore the UN. Under the cover of the automatic American veto, Israel has held onto territory it does not own for the last 36 years. Either way, if the battle cheer of the Israeli right isn't exaggerated, it is certainly premature. www.haaretz.co.il/hasen/pages/ShArt.jhtml? |

Ramallah Daily: Channel Four, 19:55
According to the film-makers of Channel 4's "Ramallah Daily", the channel is coming under real pressure and may pull the programme immediately due to claims of its "unbalanced nature".
Unless considerable support is shown for this programme to counteract the complaints, the Channel will cancel the show within days. Send an e-mail now at http://www.channel4.com/about_c4/comments/tv_enquiries.cfm
Please contact Channel 4 now to show your support for this excellent programme. This daily programme, that is filmed on the day in Ramallah, illustrates the reality of life for ordinary Palestinians under the continuing Israeli occupation. Its important that one of the few programmes that actually shows how the occupation, closures, curfews etc affect the everyday lives of the Palestinians, is not taken off our television screens.
