Plenty of talk about ‘peace,’ little commitment
When leaders from center-left aren’t willing to deepen the struggle against the occupation, it’s hard not to feel that they, too, prefer the status quo. Notes from the Haaretz Conference for Peace. The most genuine moments at Thursday’s Haaretz Conference on Peace came from two right-wing speakers — Yariv Levin and Ze’ev Elkin, both ministers…

Why the Israeli and Palestinian media tell such different stories
As violence against Israeli Jews declines, the Israeli media has gone back to business as usual. Palestinian newspapers, on the other hand, are full of stories of death, arrests, and all-out war. For the past several weeks, during what the Israeli press has deemed a “wave of terror,” included stabbings and extrajudicial killings in the…

Let’s not forget that East Jerusalem Palestinians are stateless
Two of Haaretz’s biggest names claim the violence in Jerusalem reveals the failure of ‘bi-nationalism.’ Perhaps they have forgotten that over 300,000 residents there live under occupation, rather than in any type of sovereign state. The stabbing of an Israeli soldier in the West Bank settlement of Kiryat Arba and the killing of two Palestinian…

IDF may start viewing Iran nukes as less of a threat
A new document published by the IDF’s chief of staff rebuts Netanyahu’s attempts at consensus-building on the Iran nuclear threat. The so-called Israeli consensus on the Iranian threat took another blow on Thursday after IDF Chief of Staff Gadi Eizenkot published a new document titled “IDF Strategy.” News on the document was published in Haaretz,…

Israel media survey: Iran deal, not so bad after all?
A number of senior columnists and reporters say that Israel should be pleasantly surprised by the deal struck between the P5+1 and Iran over the latter’s nuclear program. Netanyahu — and his mouthpiece — digs in his heels. Although the pushback from the Prime Minister’s Office was immediate and unchanged, many senior figures in the…

When Jewish militants dug underground tunnels
Seventy years ago it was the Zionist militias who dug underground tunnels and hid weapon caches among the civilian population. So why is it so difficult for Israelis to understand when Hamas does the same today? Whether we like to admit it or not, the Israeli press intentionally ignores the realities of Gaza. One would…

All but one Israeli news site gives prominence to Zoabi attack
Out of the main Israeli news websites, only Ynet decides to play down its coverage of the attack on MK Haneen Zoabi. By Oren Persico As opposed to all the other major Israeli news sites, only Ynet decidedly toned down on its homepage Tuesday’s attack on Palestinian MK Haneen Zoabi, according to The Seventh Eye’s media…

A different look at democracy: Impressions from a ‘Haaretz’ conference
What does it feel like to be thought of as someone who endangers democracy? Sometimes, all it takes is having dark skin, curls and a kippa. Thoughts on Mizrahi identity from Haaretz’s Conference on Democracy. By Eli Bareket Several weeks ago I attended the Israel Conference on Democracy sponsored by the liberal Haaretz daily. It was…
