Minority Report: Akiva Eldar Responds
Akiva Eldar responds to the Presspectiva/CAMERA exposé concerning his false report that the Israeli government has acknowledged that Jews are the minority between the river and the sea. He partially acknowledges the falsehood, and also introduces a new distorted figure.
Ha'aretz's Akiva Eldar falsely attributes an unsubstantiated, erroneous figure to the Israeli Ministry of Finance in his bogus report that the Israeli government has acknowledged that Jews are a minority between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea.
Ha'aretz's leading headline in the weekend paper claims that the "Little Kotel" is opened to Jewish prayer, "upsetting status quo." In actuality, the site has always been used for Jewish prayer. The only change involved the removal of scaffolding which impeded access for Arab residents.
