Current News: Palestine & Israel

To find out what is currently happening in Israel & Palestine, I like to check out multiple sources from different perspectives. CNN has a Middle East page. BBC has a special In Depth section on Israel and the Palestinians . National Public Radio (NPR) offers Middle East radio news coverage on the internet. Also try the International Middle East Media Center and the Middle East Media Research Institute, an organization that translates primary Arabic sources into English. My favorite Israeli source is Independent Media Review and Analysis. Other Israeli sources include Haaretz and the Jerusalem Post. I also like to read a personal blog published by Tal G in Jeruselam. Aljazeera, the Palestinian News Network, and the Palestinian Media Center offer an Arab perspective on the situation. Photos from the Palestinian Territories are available on PalestineToday.com. Let us pray for peace in the region, and especially for all the Orthodox Christians who have continued to keep the Faith while living in a land of violence.
