Skynews blown up, cameraman loses leg. Murdoch not sure how to report
it, since he is a Zionist and scared of his staff turning on him.
USS Liberty anyone? These guys don't like witnesses to atrocities.

The offices of Sky News in Gaza suffered a direct missile hit
yesterday morning - one of two buildings hosting international media
targeted by the Israeli army.
A cameraman had to have his leg amputated as a result of his injuries
and five other journalists were wounded in the pre-dawn attack on the
high-rise building in the heart of the heavily populated city.
The attacks also damaged offices of the Hamas TV station, Al Aqsa, and
a Lebanese-based broadcaster, Al Quds TV, seen as sympathetic to the
Islamists.

An Israeli air strike hit a media building yesterday, injuring at
least six journalists
The Israeli Defence Forces last night maintained the media centres
were legitimate targets as they hosted �communication antenna used by
Hamas to carry out terror activity against the State of Israel�.
But yesterday Sky News reporter Sam Kiley described how the rocket
�shredded� the stairwell between the 14th and 15th floor of the
Al-Shuruq building used by the British TV news network, ITN and other
foreign media.
Mr Kiley, 48, was sleeping in the office when the missile struck
shortly before 7am local time. The windows were blown and shards of
glass and debris were scattered onto the street below.

The Sky News Middle East correspondent said: �The missile hit the

breaking glass.'
He added: �This is the headquarters of many of the international media
in Gaza City including Sky News Arabia which has a permanent bureau
here which we are using during this conflict.�
Pointing to a hole in the wall, Mr Kiley continued: �This is the
result of one of two shells that were fired at about ten to seven
local time.

The Foreign Press Association has expressed its concern after
buildings housing news organisations in Gaza were hit during Israeli
air strikes last night, injuring eight journalists
�The Israelis say they were targeting an antenna that is on the roof
of the building. This is the stairwell between the 14th and 15th
floor. Anyone on this stairwell would have been shredded.�
Hamas Health Ministry Spokesman Ashraf Al-Qudra added: �At least six
journalists were wounded when Israeli warplanes hit the TV offices in
building in Gaza City.�
No one from ITN was in the building at the time.
Fatah, the ruling party in the West Bank, condemned the attacks.
A spokesman said: �This attack on journalists and freedom of
expression reflects Israel�s disdain for international law and the
little value it affords the lives of Palestinians.
�Last Thursday, the Israeli government said there is no free media in
Gaza which is an insult to the brave journalists covering the
situation from there.
�It would now seem that some Israelis want to make sure that there is
no free media in Gaza.�

legitimate targets as militant Palestinian groups had placed
communication equipment on the buildings� rooftops.
NATO criticised for TV bombing in 1999
NATO was severely criticised for bombing of the studios of
government-run Radio Television Serbia in Belgrade that killed 16 at
the height of the Kosovo War in April 1999.
In the same month NATO also deliberately bombed the Chinese Embassy in
the Serbian capital after discovering it was being used to transmit
Yugoslav military communications.

An Israeli government official said: �Al Aqsa is an integral part of
the Hamas military machine. It is part of Hamas� command and control.�
Israeli military spokeswoman Lt Col Avital Leibovich accused Hamas of
using journalists as �human shields� and urged news organisations to
steer clear of Hamas bases and facilities.
And she acknowledged that civilians were in danger but said
Palestinian militant groups were to blame.
Lt Col Leibovich said: �One of the strategies of Hamas, not only
Hamas, but Islamic Jihad as well, is locating large amounts of
munitions underneath civilian homes. Many times this is the reason for
this big damage or collateral damage.�
