Striking photography for – and against – Israel

September 14, 2006 - 10:39 AM by

TrekEarth (along with its sister sites, TrekLens, and TrekNature) is a very active, well moderated photographic site for amateur-level to pros wanting to feature their original photograph.Israel is well represented, and updates several times a day.So are the Palestinian territories, as well as our neighboring countries. Although most of the imagery is simply peer-reviewed and enjoyed, many if not most of those about PA area shots are accompanied by agitprop, in a sort of “soft-propaganda” exploitation, unfortunately (no surprise, right?).

So, I recommend clicking over and getting am eyeful of great (…and, umm, almost great) photography – and also learning something of why the basic assumptions against Israel abroad, vis a vis, say, the West Bank and Jerusalem security barrier are so prevalent (read the comments below the pic).
