The IMC coverage of the events in Palistine have been outstanding.
Palistine Jerusalem Italy and UK IMC's (amonst others)have covered the Israeli IDFs' murderous attacks and the situation there better than any other media ANYWHERE.
So what are you on about, sorry I dont read portugese but this seems like an attack on the impartiality of indymedia
so has Latuff turned into a fascist??

It looks like the article should read, press cover up is highlighted by IMC?.



MIDDLE EAST
Information besieged naPalestina


In the natural precariousness of the war the Center of Independent Media (CMI) - one of the coordinators of the movement world anti-globalização - it maintains a channel open with some corresponding in Belém. When 35 civil observers from France, Belgium, Italy and Switzerland compose with the landless laborer Mário Lill the '' source of information '' local. Mário became the '' Peter Arnett '' of the national media. As in all war situation, each side should be evaluated under filters anti-information contaminated ideologicamente. The electronic address www.midiaindependente.org until the night of this Tuesday almost maintained some reports in real time.

The reports of the battle and some data on the fence and the climate in the Palestinian area come from the collaborators of CMI (most in the Hotel Star, surrounded by ten tanks). there are No safe sources in conflicts of the gender although the eloquence of the images of the Israeli attack on a boss of State and an autonomous area speaks for itself.

The testimony free from the press was banished. Three weeks ago TV and to radio Palestine was for the airs as '' retaliation to the terrorism of man-bombs ''. The house searches the house in the refugees' of Dehaishe field, the actions of the Caravan of Action for Paz in Beit Jala (under 58 tanks) they have been showing the Palestinian side. There is a report on the wound of the Briton, Aisa Kiysue, Kunle Ibidun, Chris Dunham, the Australian, Kate Irving and the North American Said Khulil. In the group they would be two Palestinian journalists also wounded.

Five Italian journalists were confined with Palestinian militants in the Church of the Nativity in Belém, among them the corresponding of the radio and television public Italians, RAI. In the same city, the Palestinian Majdi Benoura, cameraman of the television net Al-Jazira, it was hurt in the neck while he/she worked.

Without clothes
In Ramallah, three cameramen (of Reuters, Middle East Broadcasting and ANN) they had to remove the clothes in magazine done by Israeli soldiers. They were intimidated for they register soldiers intercepting ambulances. The fear is natural for the happened incident there is one month with the Italian photographer Raffaelli Cirello, died by the Israelis by pointing his/her camera towards a tank.

More than 40 journalists were hurt in the acirramento of the conflict (September of 2000), most for the Israeli forces.

The Committee, with thirst in New York, alerts that Israel arrested all the professionals in Ramallah. '' To arrest journalists in conflict areas is censorship '', he/she affirms in note. The entity also expressed his/her concern '' for the evident desire of Israel in impeding that the press proceeds with their own eyes the activities in Ramallah ''.

I first saw this on the Palestine IMC site. Like you I don't read portugese, but anyone could put Latuff's e-mail address in the box. The illustration used simply compares the Zionist Israeli regimes similarity with Nazi Germany - so I wouldn't worry that IMC's favourite artist has changed sides.

I am sorry for my poor fucking English.
I mean "coverage" instead "cover up".
IMC is not hidding anything about Palestine, definitely.
I agree 100% with you, "Insulted". IMC COVERAGE is been recognized by people around the world.

Again, I am sorry.

Sincerely,

Latuff

Thanks Latuff for posting again and clarifying. I have changed the wording in the title from 'cover-up' to 'coverage'.
