The middle east media coverage of the Palestine- Israeli conflict continues to shift. In the past, Israel enjoyed almost exclusive status in all editorials. Today the shift is on as the U.S. and Israel interests also shift as the desert sands blow. The U.S. (needing support countries on line for the Afghanistan move, just as they did for the gulf war of 1990, is now changing its view to that of the UN outlook where Israel is being smeared as an army of occupation thus blamed for the middle east escalation. For Ariel Sharon it is the Palestinian problem. The assassination of the minister of tourism leaves little doubt about that and who is to blame.
