Al Dura probe: Trial by TV
http://zionism-israel.com/israel_news/2008/10/al-dura-probe-trial-by-tv.htmlIt is a bit late in the day to set up this panel, which can't get to any of the evidence, probably doesn't have any forensic experts and has no authority in Israel or the Palestinian territories. But the original story about the Palestinian boy who was supposedly shot by Israelis was "trial by TV," so this panel is a fitting response.
Perhaps it should be an episode in "Boston Legal." Can they get Jill Hennessy to exhume the body and do the coroner's report?

The committee, set up by the French public broadcasting authority, will examine the validity of the original television report in light of repeated accusations that it was deliberately falsified.
