The International Court of Justice’s landmark opinion that Israel’s “settlements” in the occupied Palestine West Bank violate international law should have been on the front page of the New York Times. Two days later, the report has already disappeared from the paper’s online home page. The Times can certainly report that Israel disagrees with the Court’s decision and will not respect it. Not much there either — so far, a single online report that apparently did not appear on the air. The network, which once employed genuine journalists like Walter Cronkite and Dan Rather, has so far not aired a single report on the court’s decision.
