It’s worse than ever ! (ndlr)

by Uri Avnery

Friday 11 April 2008

5-year old Abdallah Bahar
Was killed this week
In the Gaza Strip
By army fire.

Not a single word about this
Was published by
Yediot Aharonot, Maariv
Or any TV channel.
Only Haaretz published a photo.

In the democratic State of Israel
There is no need for
A military coup d’etat
In order to muzzle the media.
The editors do it themselves.
