It is not a coincidence that an Israeli photographer won the Pulitzer Prize for his picture of a woman battling the police at Amona.
Yes, it is a great visual. And yes, it was taken at a dramatic scene. But I am sure there were hundreds of other pictures with these same elements up for the prize.
The Jews, especially those in Israel, are a magnet for world attention. Those of us who live in Judea and Samaria number (ken yirbu – we should only increase) roughly 260,000 people, and we live on a tiny sliver of land, relative to the world as a whole. The media attention we garner, though, would make it seem that we are a major world power.
Something to think about.
