BBC NEWS | Middle East | Anger over Palestinian Nakba ban...

Rated May 25 • 1 review • middle east, israel, palestine • bbc.co.uk

From the page: "Israeli campaigners and left-wing lawmakers have condemned moves to ban Israeli Arabs from marking the Nakba - the "catastrophe" of Israel's creation.

On Sunday a government panel backed putting the bill, proposed by the party of far-right Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman, before the Israeli Knesset.

A Labour minister opposed it; Hadash, a mainly Arab party, called it "racist".

Some 700,000 Palestinians fled or were forced from their homes in the 1948 war after Israel declared independence."

From the page: "Rather, Stein's columns are meant to be treated like a puzzle. Readers are supposed to find all the various inaccurate statements and outright errors that appear in each column. They are like the game where two pictures are juxtaposed and the reader is supposed to find the twelve subtle differences between the pictures.

Let's see how many of the errors we can find in today's piece, which is supposedly reflecting backward from 2089 on the collapse of the U.S. economy:

1) The piece begins by asserting that the United States was "starting from an extremely strong economic and fiscal position in the year 2000." "

Washington intervenes in Lebanon's elections and threatens the Lebanese to vote properly or face the consequences.

From the page: "the Hezbollah-led opposition stands a good chance of coming out narrowly ahead of the Western-backed coalition that the Americans would clearly like to see win.

Mr Biden also warned of likely consequences if Hezbollah and its allies were to prevail in the 7 June poll and form the kind of government Washington would frown on.

The administration, he said, "will evaluate the shape of our assistance programmes based on the composition of the new government and the policies it advocates.""
