From what I've seen in Gaza and the West Bank, there are a rather fair number of
events staged for the media, even respecting the working hours and travel needs of
the photogs who travel in and out of those areas from the safety of their hotels (and
hotel bars) in Israel proper. So few of the correspondents and pj's spend a night in
those areas or spend time with "ordinary" people -- it's mostly a herd following each
other from one "event" to another, with lock-stepped steps and lock-stepped minds.
Beware of what you read and see from that conflict. Nothing is as simple as it seems.
