Nidra Poller talks about the blood libel of Charles Enderlin, the Jerusalem correspondent of France2 TV, against Israel and against any critics who dare to speak the truth about his fabrications. She's understandably angry about it.
On a related note, another local blogger in Israel told me he'd met Philippe Karsenty, one of the heads of Media Ratings, a French media watchdog site, at a bloggers conference in Herzliya earlier this week. Karsenty was sued by France2 (a state TV broadcaster), and Enderlin, for charging that the al-Durah case was a hoax, and that Enderlin should be removed. Karsenty lost the suit. He's now appealing the decision.
He said that, if the Israeli government were to either make it clear that the al-Durah footage is faked, or demand that they release the whole recordings taken, then that could help to get to the bottom of this case more easily.
The problem is that, when you have a do-nothing government like Olmert's, then you can't really expect anything of the sort. Until the whole case can dealt with though, here's what I recommend: write to France2's e-mail/letters department. First, go to the main page of their site, then click the javascript link at the top that says "contacter France2". On the page that opens, press one of the two options on the left (vos opinions, or vos autre questions). And what to tell them when you write can be that it doesn't matter whether the court is on Enderlin's side, if France2 doesn't release the extra footage in its entirety, then we don't believe your whole al-Durah tale.
Enderlin may not realize it, but, he's practically getting himself more attention than he may actually want, and the more he keeps on with with his useless charade, the more he's really discrediting and embarrassing himself and France2.
