Haaretz's Gideon Levy wins prize for cultural dialogue
Haaretz journalist Gideon Levy has won this year's Euro-Med Journalist Prize for Cultural Dialogue.

Levy was awarded the prize for an article published on the eve of Rosh Hashanah, entitled "The children of 5767" (5767 is the Jewish calendar year that ended on September 12, 2007). The article told the stories of all the Palestinian children killed by Israel Defense Forces fire over the previous year.

According to the prize committee, the piece not only dealt with a sensitive issue "in a very courageous manner," but also focused attention on an issue the Israeli media rarely covers.
The prize, now in its second year, is awarded jointly by the Anna Lindh Euro-Mediterranean Foundation for the Dialogue between Cultures and the International Federation of Journalists.

about the sources you use. If you wish to talk about Gideon Levy, please use the proper sources.
Like here:
http://frontpagemag.com/

You see, now that's what is called in the I/P Forum as a good source of information. It's considered "progressive".

Or here
http://www.israelnationalnews.com
Israel National News.

or go to masada2000 where they really have the scoop on Levy. you can always depend on an enlightening brilliance there, even if it is a bit too intellectual for some people's taste.

I could not find anything about Levy at either World Net Daily or DanielPipes.org.

You know, maybe you shouldn't even be talking about him at all (what dan pipes doesn't care about we shouldn't either)!! and isn't Levy for
.... peace?!?!?
with Arabs!?!?!?!?
and Muslims?!?!?!

My god, what has gotten into you. Can't you post something about the inferiority of the Muslim people. that's always a hit here. hey, and those posts never come down either.

:sarcasm:
