Subject: Jerusalem Post article gets pulled after my email

Friends,

Saturday there was an article posted on The Jerusalem Post website which I felt was in error. The article claimed that the Jerusalem Post had a video of a recent honor killing of a female adolescent in Gaza. After writing them concerned with the authenticity of the video, I got a response from the author (who happens to be half Palestinian/half Israeli-Arab) and the article was removed immediately. See below for correspondence.

Michael

Hi Khaled,

We met in Washington DC a year or two ago when you spoke at a CAMERA luncheon. Regarding your article, the pictures that you have of the girl in the honor killing and the sequence of events remind me of a similar heart wrenching video that I have seen elsewhere on the web. Please verify for authenticity.

Michael
