An Israeli Cover Up? – Max Blumenthal Interview
Did the government in Israel cover up a criminal investigation in order to justify military strikes?
In June, three teenagers were reported missing in Israel, and the government in Jerusalem claimed they had little information on their whereabouts. Armed forces, commanded by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, bombed the Gaza strip and soldiers stormed areas in the West Bank.
Some critics charge the government of Israel knew within hours of the disappearances that the teens had been killed.
Max Blumenthal is a journalist who has extensively studied the Middle East, including Israeli policies. He recently wrote an article called “Netanyahu government knew teens were dead as it whipped up racist frenzy.” In it, he tells a different story than the one the Israeli government is telling the world.
