| Paleojournalists back down from Hamas... |
| 2002-11-03 |
| The Palestinian journalist's bloc has rejected the attempt by certain individuals in the journalists syndicate to politicize an accident in a bid to tarnish the Islamic Resistance Movement, Hamas. The bloc said that the syndicate's decision to boycott all Hamas activities did not represent the bloc nor reflect the opinion of Palestinian pressmen. In a statement yesterday, the bloc said, "We were at pains over what happened to some of our colleagues the journalists yesterday Thursday 31/10/2002 namely the assault against them while covering the tragic explosion that killed three Palestinian Mujahideen. We also appreciate the quick condemnation of that incident by Hamas". The statement pointed out, however, that the bloc was angered over the attempt by certain individuals in the syndicate to exploit and politicize that event. Sounds like they had a visit from Big Mahmoud and Crazy Abdullah to shove them back into line... |
