Reports From a Tightrope
(Los Angeles Times) Tracy Wilkinson - Israeli citizen Suleiman Shafhe, 37, is a Palestinian by virtue of his ethnic and historic identity, and Arabic is his native tongue. Shafhe has one of the most difficult jobs in journalism - reporter for Israeli television in Gaza. Because he works for Israel's Channel Two and his reports are in Hebrew for an Israeli audience, many Palestinians see him as a traitor. But because he is an Arab, many Israeli viewers see him as little more than a mouthpiece for the enemy.
