U.S. Spys Like Israeli Media Washington/JTA merican intelligence agen- cies have published a favor- able, extensive review of the Israeli media. "Israel boasts a dynamic, aggressive, and ever-changing Hebrew- and English-language media dominated by three con- glomerates that control the mainstream press and commer- cial television," said the Sept. 16 report by the director of National Intelligence's Open Source Center. "The scope of permissible reporting is wide, and there is a broad range of published mate- rial," it said. "While the media remain subject to military censorship on matters affecting issues of national secu- A rity, the advent of the Internet and 24-hour satellite broadcasting has lessened the censor's clout?' The tone of the 76-page report is at times one of bemusement in dealing with Israel's free-for-all atmosphere. "Journalists in Israel are allowed unfettered access to Knesset members," it says. "They can approach any politi- cian in the Knesset cafeteria, talk with them on a first-name basis and telephone them on their personal cellular phones and at home." The CIA, which supervises the Open Source Center, has not authorized the release of the report. Secrecy News, a publica- tion of the Federation of American Scientists, obtained it and pub- lished it Monday. ❑ at ease o on_ When the phone rings at The Ira Kaufinan Chapel, it 'm be a request for the day and time of a service, shin: information and directions, or an inquiry regar where to send contributions in memory of a loved one.: It might also)) it is why ,r nearly m 0 y ears= e ra eau has chosen NOT to h an an w ape ; e Bringing Together Family, Faith & Community, 18325 WEST NINE MILE ROAD, SOUTHFIELD, MI 48075 I 248.569.0020 I FAX 248.569.2502 I WWW.IRAKAUFMAN.COM 1429700 B46 October 9 • 2008
