Israeli terrorist and espionage networks in Lebanon
All Lebanese media are filled with information and details about the Israeli terrorist and espionage networks but the subject does not receive any coverage in the US press. Imagine if Israeli uncovers networks of spies for Syria or Lebanon: I can imagine the headlines in the New York Times. I can imagine Ethan Bronner sending the token Arab stringer, Taghreed El-Khodari to check on the welfare and conditions of the Israeli spies and collaborators. I wonder if Human Rights Watch will now issue a special report on the conditions and welfare of Israeli spies in Lebanon. And remember that Israel has not denied the Lebanese allegations about those networks. And remember that when Israeli lies about its networks of terrorists (like it did in the Lavon affair in the 1950s) the Western press simply went along on the ride of bogus claims.
