Palestinian Media Watch (PMW; (ヘブライ語:מבט לתקשורת פלסטינית)) is an Israel-based nongovernmental organization and media watchdog group. Founded in 1996 by Itamar Marcus, Palestinian Media Watch documents cases of incitement in Palestinian media. It describes itself as "an Israeli research institute that studies Palestinian society from a broad range of perspectives by monitoring and analyzing the Palestinian Authority through its media and schoolbooks."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.palwatch.org/pages/aboutus.aspx )〕 == Reports to Western political bodies == After a period during which Palestinian television was airing music videos promoting martyrdom and encouraging violence against U.S. troops in Iraq, in 2003 Itamar Marcus testified in front of a U.S. Senate committee hearing to discuss the phenomenon. Marcus characterized one of the videos shown at the hearing as "Palestinians...glorifying the killing of American soldiers" and calling on Iraqis "to kill American soldiers." American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee communications director Hussein Ibish agreed that another video encouraged Palestinian children to commit suicide but said that only 3% of Palestinians watch Palestinian television and that a seven-minute peace song was also being aired regularly. In 2007, Palestinian Media Watch presented the U.K. Parliament Select Committee on the European Union with evidence pertaining to Palestinian schoolbooks it said reject Israel's right to exist, glorify terrorism, and inculcate youngsters with hatred for Israel. A report Palestinian Media Watch presented to the United States House Committee on Foreign Affairs in 2008 indicated that the Palestinian Authority was engaging with enemies of the United States on a shared platform of hatred toward the U.S. The report argued that under such circumstances the creation of an independent Palestinian state would contribute to the undermining U.S. efforts toward world peace. In 2011 Palestinian Media Watch presented U.S. congressmen with a report indicating that more than of U.S. funding for the Palestinian Authority was being used to pay salaries to Palestinian prisoners jailed in Israel on terrorism-related charges. The report also cited instances of the Palestinian Authority glorifying the perpetrators of terrorist attacks against Israelis. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Palestinian Media Watch」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
