CAMERA last week prompted correction of two Agence France Presse photo captions which misidentified the northern Israeli kibbutz of Misgav Am as a “settlement.” The two pictures with their erroneous April 25 captions follow:
Located within the ceasefire lines of 1949, Kibbutz Misgav Am (established 1945) is not a settlement but a Jewish residential community, like any other community found inside Israel’s internationally recognized territory.
In response to communication from CAMERA, editors commendably amended the captions to refer to the community as the “northern Israeli kibbutz of Misgav Am.”
