Response

So I wrote this yesterday. M.J. Rosenberg, the person who is cited in the article (and in the post) wrote to me this (I cite with his persmission): "For the record. I did not say "first the good news." That was not part of my quote. I only said that Gaza was a PR disaster for Israel. Does that mean I consider it to only have been PR disaster. It does not. I believe that Israel's Gaza onslaught was precisely as described in the Goldstone report. I wish you would correct the record so that none of your many readers will believe, even for a second, that I -- in any way, shape, or form --defend what Israel did (and continues to do) to Gaza." I told M.J. that to associate "P.R." with a massacre or a war crime is wrong nevertheless.
