"Olmert Likely to Face Charges in Corruption Case"
A9, Monday, 3/2/09,
By Isabel Kershner
There’s nothing problematic about the reporting of Olmert’s possible indictment. Though there's an odd mixing in with Blair and and donors and “war-battered” Gaza. There isn't even a reference to the "no money until rockets stop" logic coming from Israel.
Kershner cites “Gaza militants” continuing to fire rockets from Gaza, just after reporting on the Gaza donors conference. Which Gaza militants? “It was not clear if Hamas was responsible,” is a line that would’ve served to make more prominent the issue of Hamas’ complicity, if not direct involvement.
No casualties were reported over the weekend, “but” the rockets did strike an empty school. The degree of outrage that is rocket launching into Israel, seems reliant on the damage it causes.
