'MENi TENKS' 2002 from Ramallah
track name is ' MENi TENKS ' . it produced in 29 March 2002 Christian Amanpour askin simple question in this track : BUSH !! SHARON !! ....believe violence ... ? : this was our version for this story . ////////////

and CNN version was like this in 29 march 2002 / Ramallah ;

Even the phrase "blaming the victim" can't convey the arrogance of CNN journalist Christiane Amanpour's March 29 telephone interview with Yasser Arafat . Speaking by phone to the Palestinian leader in his besieged compound, as several of his closest aides were being assassinated by Israeli troops,Amanpour sounded like a reporter from the antebellum South asking slave rebellion leader Nat Turner or Abolitionist John Brown if they would '' rein in the violence."
Arafat was literally being held captive inside his Ramallah headquarters by Israeli settler military might. Tanks circled and shelled his compound. Bulldozers and tank turrets were tearing down the fences and walls around him. Explosions and gunfire crackled and boomed from all directions. Israeli snipers poised on nearby rooftops fired right into the headquarters of the Palestinian Authority.
In the midst of this all-out siege by the generals of Tel Aviv, the highest-paid foreign correspondent in the world asked the Palestinian leader, "What are the conditions like at your compound right now?"
Arafat was used to the Western press personalizing and trivializing the news. "Still you are not following this aggression against the Palestinian people in all of the West Bank and Gaza," he replied. "They have divided Gaza into three parts, completely separated it. And also the aggression and the attack in Ramallah against my headquarters and against the Palestinian people ... all around. At the same time, they are increasing their forces, their military activities to follow up their aggression against many other places, many other towns, many other cities, many other areas in our Palestinian liberated areas."
Amanpour sounded surprised. "Are you under direct physical threat right now?"
Arafat answered, "It seems that you are not following the TVs all over the world. They have destroyed completely seven of our buildings, completely around my office and pounded my office with all their armaments. ... Israel is the real terrorist of the occupation. And especially they are using now all the American weapons against us--F-15s and F-16s and ... rockets and bombers and artillery and everything."
Then Amanpour bared the real role of the imperialist media in times of political and military crisis--to refashion the oppressed into the oppressor. Secretary of State Colin Powell, she said, "called on you to rein in the violence. What do you make of that statement, and can you and will you rein in that violence?"
Arafat could not contain his anger. "Are you asking me while I am under complete siege?"
The CNN star reporter repeated the monstrously loaded question: "Are you able to rein in the violence?"
Arafat blew up. "You are covering, with such questions, the terrorist activities of the Israeli occupation and the Israeli crimes."
He hung up.Amanpour , for once, was at a loss for words.

Arafat'ın karargahı çevresinde gece boyunca devam eden ateş ve bombalamanın ardından, İsrail askerleri dün Arafat'ın özel bürosunun kapısına dayandı. Danışmanları, elektriğin kesilmesinden sonra Arafat'ın geceyi karanlıkta geçirdiğini kaydettiler. Batı Şeria'daki Filistin istihbaratının başkanı Tevfik El Tiravi, İsrail özel birliklerinin Arafat'ın özel bürosuna daha da ilerlediklerini ve Arafat'n iki korumasını yaraladıklarını kaydetti. Tiravi, "İsrail askerleriyle Arafat'ın özel bürosu arasında sadece bir kapı kaldı. Geceyi sadece kuşatmayla değil, yoğun bombardıman ve ateş altında geçirdik. Dış dünyayla iletişimimizi kesmemizi istiyorlar" dedi.
İsrail askerlerinin, megafonla bina içindeki muhabirlere binayı terketmeleri yönünde yapılan çağrı sonrası binaya girdikleri belirtildi.
Filistin lideri Yaser Arafat, CNN muhabiri Christian Amanpour'u frçaladı. Arafat, Amanpour'un, "Filistinli militanları dizginlemek için ne yaptığı" yönündeki sorusunun ardından sinirlenerek, röportajı aniden kesti. Filistin lideri, "General Yaser Arafat ile konuşurken doğru davranmalısınız. Bu sorularla, İsrail işgali ve İsrail'in işlediği suçların getirdiği terörist faaliyetleri haklı çıkarıyorsunuz. Adil olun. Teşekkür ederim, hoşçakalın" ifadelerini kullandı
