The American news media presents a false image of Jewish settlers in the West Bank, Sen. Daniel Inouye (D-Hawaii) said here Monday.
There is no foundation to the image created by American television of “scared people holding Uzi submachine guns in their hands,” Inouye said.
“They even have a country club,” he said.
He was speaking of the West Bank settlement of Alfei Menashe, which he visited in order to get better acquainted with the settlements.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
