Arabs Urged to Reveal Israeli Subreptitious Report on Palestinian UprisingLebanese Information Minister Ghazi Aridi said on Thursday that the Arab world should do all it can to reveal Israel's subreptitious report about the Palestinian intifada (uprising).Aridi made the remarks upon returning to Beirut after attending an emergency meeting of Arab information ministers in Cairo, Lebanon's official NNA news agency reported on Thursday. All 22 Arab countries have reached a consensus to cooperate in news reporting about the Palestinian intifada against Israeli occupation and aggressions, he said. "We should take actions as soon as possible to deal with Israel's lies that are going around the world," he stressed. "Israel has established a channel broadcast in Arabic, which is smearing the Palestinian intifada. Our media must strike back," the Lebanese official added. The Arab countries agreed in the information ministers meeting held in June in Beirut to set up an Arab satellite channel to broadcast in English and other languages, including Hebrew, to present Arab causes and stances to the world public opinion. |
