			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I just stumbled on a site called israelenews.com, which bills itself as &#8220;Israel&#8217;s daily news e-mag.&#8221;</p>
<p>The site contains a number of blog posts, as well as articles from a number of well-known and not-so-well-known people. And while these include some worthy authors (including <em>Israellycool </em>contributor <a href="http://www.israelenews.com/view.asp?ID=674" target="_blank">Elder of Ziyon</a> and fellow pro-Israel blogger <a href="http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/2005/03/about-me.html" target="_blank">Sultan Knish</a>) , it currently has on the front page articles by the likes of anti-Israel blogger/pest Richard Silverstein, and the blatantly anti-Semitic <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel_Shamir" target="_blank">Israel Shamir</a>.</p>
<p>Just as disturbing is the presence on the front page of an article about an Israeli porn site. The words &#8220;WARNING!!! ADULT CONTENT&#8221; appear in the excerpt, but seemingly only for effect, given the presence of an uncensored, pornographic picture right next to them. <em>Yeah, thanks for the warning</em>. Needless to say, I did not click through for the full article.</p>
<p>What I&#8217;m confused about is the purpose of this site. Is it a site to promote a variety of views on Israel and intellectual discussion? Or is it a glorified porn site? Furthermore, do the authors know their articles are being published on this site? And if so, are they aware of the anti-Israel/Jewish views and other filth being disseminated there?</p>
<p><strong>Update</strong>: Here is the <a href="http://www.israelenews.com/web/authors.asp?CID=37" target="_blank">full list</a> of authors. Looking at some of these names, I am sure they would not approve of having their work published there.</p>
