Gaza Cartoon Irks Foreign Journalists

JERUSALEM, Israel -- A 49-second cartoon video entitled "Open your eyes about Gaza," produced by Israel's Foreign Ministry, brought some sour comments from the Foreign Press Association.

"Posting misleading and poorly conceived videos on YouTube is inappropriate, unhelpful and undermines the ministry, which says it respects the foreign press and its freedom to work in Gaza," the FPA said in a statement.

During last summer's Operation Protective Edge, CBN News also wrote about "questionable reports" in a piece entitled. "What the Media Isn't Saying about the Gaza War," noting "…as Israel fights Hamas terrorists on the ground, they've also found themselves battling what they see as incomplete media coverage."

The international media aren't the only ones to write disparagingly about the Jewish state. It's not unusual for Israeli media to criticize the Netanyahu government.
