LGF only tells half the story (as usual)

Charles Johnson posts with glee a link to an article on the Jerusalem Post website, in which it is reported that Indymedia Israel is under investigation for the appearance on its newswire of a Latuff cartoon depicting Adolf Hitler kissing Ariel Sharon (http://littlegreenfootballs.com/weblog/?entry=9230_Indymedia_Israel_Being_Investigated).

Interestingly though, Charles doesn't report the other case of graphic 'incitement' being investigated, despite the fact that it makes up the main part of the JPost article. This other case centres around pictures promoted by the pro-settler 'Women in Green' group, "depicting Industry, Trade, and Labor Minister Ehud Olmert stamping products from the territories with a nazi-era yellow 'Jude' Star of David, under the slogan 'Olmert caves in to the EU demands to label Israel's Yesha products.'"

The article goes on to say: "Deputy Internal Security Minister Ya'acov Edri (Likud) strongly condemned the posters and said he hopes the perpetrators are brought to justice.

"I see this as very serious, and I hope and believe the police will apprehend and arrest those behind it and bring them to justice," Edri said.

"When you make an extreme connection like that it is incitement and that is very dangerous," Edri continued. "It is making a clear connotation that Olmert is putting a yellow star on the settlers.""

So, as usual Mr Johnson is happy to condemn one side's 'incitement', but turns a blind eye if the other side does it.
