Lesson of the 2006 war in Lebanon, Israel understood that military superiority is not enough. We must also win the media war. In 2006, journalists were on both sides of the front and could keep themselves informed of the progress of the Israeli operation. That Israel has had enough. The entrance to Gaza was closed to journalists ... same Israelis. Ostensibly for security reasons.
Customers, themselves, are not idle. The Web today is full information and pictures from Gaza and Israeli border towns like Sderot. No or few journalists in Gaza but bloggers . Point a real war seems to deliver on the net today .
is in this context that I tried to contact some French journalists on the ground. The situation in Gaza and Israel are increasingly tense and volatile, I do not expect to receive specially response. It turns out that Charles Enderlin, bureau chief of France 2 in Jerusalem took the time to answer my e-mail and give me his phone number in Israel. Here is his testimony. He explains how it works these days of war, but also attempts to manipulate both the Israeli and Palestinian.
