CAMERA prompts correction of an egregiously false Jerusalem Post headline which provided fodder for anti-Israel conspiracy theories. The headline had alleged: "Report: ISIS, Israel Temporary Allies Against Iran." The report said no such thing. CAMERA prompts several corrections after multiple media outlets stated as fact that the Shamasnehs, evicted from their Sheik Jarrah home, had lived there since 1964, making them "protected tenants." Times of Israel, Haaretz and The Jerusalem Post correct: The courts found no evidence of residency prior to 1968, and thus the family did not have that status. For the second time, CAMERA prompts correction of a Haaretz English edition translation "error" which blamed Israel for Mohammed Al Dura's death. Both times, the English edition, but not the original Hebrew, attributed the September 2000 shooting to Israel.
Haaretz English edition corrects erroneous headlines which falsely alleged settlers "torched" a Palestinian grove in Hebron. Meanwhile, will Peter Beinart retract his tweet about a "Lag Ba'omer pogrom?" CiF Watch, an independent affiliate of CAMERA, has prompted a correction at the Guardian on an Op-Ed by Hanan Ashrawi which had falsely claimed that Israel approved housing for Jews only in Gilo. Following communication from Presspectiva, CAMERA's Hebrew branch, Ha'aretz has corrected a column by Anshel Pfeffer which had wrongly blamed Israel for the death of four-year-old Gazan Mahmoud Sadallah. CAMERA's Israeli staff prompted a timely correction of the latest case of "Lost in Translation." The original Hebrew edition correctly reported on the "Nakba Law," while English translators recreated it as something much more sweeping than it actually is.
