:: To compare the ''Israel News Agency'' to Iran Broadcasting in any manner is grossly unfair and biased. The ''Israel News Agency'' is not directed by government officials employed within a totalitarian regime. Basic and democratic principles of free speech are applied at the INA. You will never find the ''Israel News Agency'' promoting the idea of "wiping a country off the map". What you will find at the INA from time to time is open criticism of governmental action and policies. That is the true responsibility of the Third Estate - where journalists maintain checks and balances of both the executive and judicial branches of government.
