Al Jazeera published an article with a headline "Accident mars Israel anniversary"
It was just interesting to see the Al Jazeera take on the events of yesterday's 60th anniversary of Israel's existence. This was the one of the front page stories of the online edition of the paper and did not really include a feature like story which is more common, to give a broad general statement about the state of Israel over the past years. While the focus on a parachute accident was not particularly scarring to the image of Israel, the article quickly turned negative by the end of the short story. The article quickly turns to Palestinian perspective by stating "In the occupied West Bank, Palestinians were also marking the six decades since what they call the "Naqba" or catastrophe." the full article can be read here : http://english.aljazeera.net/NR/exeres/F55E745C-A2AC-4F78-90BB-675439E2A12F.htm
