Additional Information on the Electronic Intifada

Overview


* The late Marxist, anti-American journalist Alexander Cockburn lauded EI as an “excellent news outlet” the could be “trusted” by “those who want unjaundiced reporting.”

* In 2003, EI received a “Voices for Peace” award from the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, in recognition of its commitment “to bringing the concerns, voices, and experiences of the Iraqi and Palestinian peoples to audiences the world over via the Internet.”

* The Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting in America (CAMERA) has documented the fact that in one 2008 article published by EI, Ali Abunimah falsely alleged that “Israeli army chief Moshe Ya’alon declared that ‘the Palestinians must be made to understand in the deepest recesses of their consciousness that they are a defeated people.’” The quote was entirely fabricated.
