In comparison, two days after the establishment of the State of Israel, the headline of the New York Times declared that Jews were “in grave danger in all the Moslem lands” and that 900,000 would “face the wrath of their foes.”</blockquote>

<blockquote>
Today, when I know more about the way in which the Palestinians reflected their disaster, and from the distance of the years and the experience gained during them, I can also openly accept the film of the German journalist Esther Shapira. Today it is clear to me that we bought that story (that the IDF supposedly killed Muhammad a-Durrah), too quickly, and cheaply. We were skeptical of the IDF's investigation. We showed impatience with tests conducted by those who were perceived as obsessive. A picture, even a video picture, may be the perfect lie. We should have made every effort to investigate the truth in the case. After all, it was our job to tell what exactly happened. And if Not us, we should have openly accepted everyone who is willing to poke a pin in this myth.</blockquote>
