Philippe Karsenty on the Meaning of Al-Durah
Was Philippe Karsenty calling France2's Enderlin's edit of al-Durah 'a fraud' a libel? Defendant Karsenty speaks with DemoCast days before the court verdict is rendered on the significance of revealing the Palestinian government's manufactured victimhood to damn Israel, and the media's complicity in perpetuating and disseminating these libels globally - which damned the Jewish State and generated empathy and embezzlable foreign aid to the Palestinian Government.
This Friday at Shdema June 12, 2009
9:30-10:15 Sara Jo Ben Zvi, Deputy Director of the Women's Beit Midrash in Efrat, will speak on" Yerushalem- the origin of Jerusalem"
10:30-11:30am Philippe Karsenty: "The Al Dura Hoax"
Philippe Karsenty, a former Jewish businessman residing in France, owner of a Media-Ratings agency, is the person who shattered the Muhammad al-Dura hoax. On September 30, 2000, there was a battle at the Netzarim junction between Arab terrorists and IDF soldiers. It was claimed in the report by the journalist Charles Enderlin on the France 2 channel, that IDF soldiers killed the al-Dura child in that battle.
Karsenty showed that the report was not true. He accused France 2 of having broadcast a fabricated film.
In the legal battle between Karsenty and France 2, with the Israeli government standing on the side and offering no help, Karsenty waged a courageous and resolute struggle in defense of Israel's good name and accuracy in the media.
Karsenty has dedicated his life to shattering the Muhammad al-Dura hoax, to which end he travels throughout the entire world to give a fascinating lecture, with video clips. Karsenty said he is "delighted to be invited and to come to Shdema", as he understands the significance of the struggle for the site. We must come and attend his lecture and disseminate his message.
The lecture will be in English, with simultaneous translation into Hebrew through earphones.

The Committee for a Jewish Shdema & Women in Green www.womeningreen.org
I visited Hevron in November 2000 after the outbreak of the Rosh Hashanah War to see what could be done to assist in the face of the growing daily attacks on the community. After returning to work for the community in the summer of 2001, a bond and a love was forged that grows to this day. My wife Melody and I merited to be married at Ma'arat HaMachpela and now host visitors from throughout the world every Shabbat as well as during the week. Our goal, "Time to come Home!"
