Current news This section follows important news issues as they are unfolding in the PA world and media. It is important to note that the PA-controlled Palestinian media is also used by the PA leadership as an avenue to create stories and events, often inciting hatred around specific themes. PA media not only reports news but creates news as well.   The Hamas – Fatah conflict is an example of a central developing story in the PA press. Jerusalem under assault is an example of how the PA leadership and the media try to create hatred of Israel with fabrications and libels surrounding Jerusalem.
