THE BLANK PAGES OF AL AGE

The Gaza War seems to have spawned a revival in the news industry in the Middle East. A brand new broadsheet has appeared at newsstands in the beleagured territory and has immediately set breathtakingly new standards of journalism even for this part of the world. Thanks to the wonders of auto-translate here is an excerpt from the new media hit in Gaza Al Age:-

"According to figures issued by the Palestinian Health Ministry in Gaza today, the death toll in the three week conflict between Israel and Hamas has reached 1,356 of who 2,004 were civilians".
