NY Times admits: Ramat Shlomo is not a 'settlement'
CAMERA reports that the New York Times has corrected a caption that appears with this picture in the paper's April 15 edition:
Error (photo caption, 4/15/10): Ultra-Orthodox Jews last month in Ramat Shlomo, a Jewish settlement in the West Bank. (Amir Cohen/Reuters)Nice job guys, but unfortunately, we need hundreds more like you. Here's another Reuters picture (different photographer, taken in March) whose caption refers to Ramat Shlomo as "a religious Jewish settlement in an area of the West Bank annexed to Jerusalem by Israel." I suspect this isn't the only other one out there.
Correction (4/16/10):A picture caption on Thursday with the continuation of a news analysis article about a shift in the Obama administration's Middle East policy referred incorrectly to Ramat Shlomo, the name of a Jewish housing development that Israel says it is expanding despite objections by the United States and the Palestinian Authority. It is a neighborhood in East Jerusalem, not a settlement in the West Bank.
And you thought Ramat Shlomo was in 'east' Jerusalem.We have a major problem with this type of dripping propaganda that sinks into people's heads without them realizing it. Quite simply, we're outnumbered.

Ramat Shlomo is in north Jerusalem. Its nowhere in the "east" but the Obama Administration's malice against Israel has already done the damage. Of all the problems in the world, the one America chose to obsess about are Jews building apartments in a Jewish neighborhood where they harm no one. Can any one explain that to me? For it made no sense whatsoever.
