This article reveals a worrying trend that is seriously damaging the state of Israel with regard to both its domestic audience and its position within the international community.
This trend is the inability to communicate in a clear and effective manner. As a result, Israel is increasingly suffering from a loss of credibility. Official denials are replaced by an ambiguous statement and finally by an acceptance that the original statement, once so vigourously refuted, is in fact correct.
Whether about settlement expansion, the use of white phosphorous or the corruption of politicians, the cumulative effect is devastating, namely a feeling or perception that Israel may no longer be trusted. |
