However, what would it be a conduit for? First Israel has to stop taking responsibility for things it did not do, and give solid information showing innocence both to the regular press and bloggers. Also, there has to be the recognition that the BBC cannot veto an Israeli military action. In the end Israel will be demonized no matter what. Forget the PR war, lets win the war on the ground.Stan I agree that the government should recognize the blogosphere as an important conduit. However, what would it be a conduit for?
