Telesur February 2,2010
Telesur had a short clip in which it confirmed the fact that Israel used white phosphorus in attacks against the Palestinians during Operation Cast Lead. White Phosphorus is specifically forbidden by the United Nations. The clip said that two high ranking officials of the air force who used this type of weaponry, which murdered three people, were being "disciplined". Danny Ayalon, the Vice Chancellor of Israel, went on to comment saying that Israel has no need to receive international approval and that they still hold themselves to the "highest moral standard", evident through their punishment of these two officials. Ayalon went on to reject the claims made in the Goldstone Report saying it is a "sham" and extremely "unprofessional". The clip mentioned the fact that 1400 people were murdered during the Operation.
The release of this statement has sparked controversy all over the world, but particularly in anti-Israel countries because it is just another technique to use against them. In Venezuela this revelation has been detrimental to the Jews because it has increased national anti- Israel sentiment and strengthened Israel's identity as the aggressor.
