  Even the Americans cannot force a peace agreement on the Israelis and the Palestinians, but Yoram Binur, an Israeli journalist covering Palestinian affairs, says the Americans can apply pressure to manipulate the sides into doing things their way. "The Americans are experts at applying pressure in order to achieve what they want," he says.

  OTTAWA - Israeli television journalist Yoram Binur has had first-hand experience "behind the lines," having lived among the Palestinian people, posing as one of them during the first intifadah.
  
  The story of his double life was published in his book My Enemy, Myself, which has been translated into many languages, including Arabic.
  
  Binur, now Palestinian Affairs correspondent for Channel 2 News on Israeli television, recently toured Canadian campuses at the invitation of National Campus Life.Following visits to Toronto, Montreal, Calgary and Vancouver, he spoke at Carleton University early in November.
  
  In a noon-hour talk titled "The New Gaza: What's Really Going On?"Binur provided historical background to the present situation in the area, including a description of the various parties involved.He also provided insights into the psychology behind strategies and events, information that the average North American would not get from local media.
  
  What Binur discovered by living as a Palestinian is that "they are very similar to us and we are very similar to them and that is sometimes part of the problem."He says that "the average person on the street [Palestinian] says he wants peace, that it is bad to kill women and children ...The current uprising, known as the second intifadah, is very different from the first intifadah."The current uprising is a ‘professional' uprising, not engaged in by all the Palestinian people, but just by organized groups," Binur said.
  
  The Palestinian Authority, the governing body of the Palestinians, and Mahmoud Abbas, PA president, are ineffective, Binur said.
  ...
  said Binur.
  
  He added that he is in favour of releasing [Fatah leader] Marwan Bargutti from prison in Israel to take on the leadership of the Palestinians."It is not an emotional issue, but a practical one," he said.
  
  Binur concluded his talk by showing a video he had made in Jenin, "the suicide bomber capital."He interviewed several Palestinians, members of Hamas, two of whom have since been killed.
  ...
  In general, I believe that people should see things even if they do not like them because you need to make decisions and my job is to get the information out," Binur said.
  
  Before leaving Ottawa, he met with officials at the Department of Foreign Affairs, where he gave Canadian officials his view of the Middle East situation.

  The group also reported that they felt they learned a lot from speaking with Yoram Binur, a Channel Two West Bank reporter who had gone undercover for six months as well as from speaking with the father of a Bedouin soldier who was killed by Palestinians and whose body was held until Israel brokered a deal in which Palestinian terrorists were traded for the bodies of missing IDF soldiers. Other favorite features participants mentioned were the beauty of Kibbutz Ein Gev in northern Israel; having a special briefing in the same room at which the Prime Minister holds his press conferences; and visiting the children at Hadassah.

  Yoram Binur was accused of collaborating with the Zionist enemy, and the ISAincreased security around another journalist's home.
  ...
  Yoram Binur, Channel Two's reporter for Arab affairs sounds much more disturbed from the growing and apparent tendency."The fact the Israeli journalists, along with academic researchers dealing with thePalestinian issue, are being threatened, is very frightening," he says.
  ...
  Binur: "We need to focus on one important point: the Israeli media, particularly during the current intifada, is perceived in the eyes of Palestinian opinion as collaborators.
  ...
  Binur asserts that "the Palestinian side is very involved today, and interested in everything that happens in Israel.
  ...
  Binur: "In my opinion, if an Israeli journalist has received threats and still chooses to continue writing under the threat, he must report this to his superiors, so that they know he is writing in such a situation.It is simply a matter of professional ethics.Suspicions in the territories today are at a peak level, everyone thinks that his neighbor is a collaborator.If you enter the territories as a journalist who comes to carry out a routine investigation, and a day later soldiers from an undercover unit arrive at the scene, alight from a van and shoot two Palestinians in the head, it is clear that they will believe there is a connection between the events."
  
  Binur bases this on a personal incident, which happened at the end of last year.About three months ago, he held an interview in Jenin with three senior terror operatives.Several weeks later, the ISA tracked down one of the interviewees, and he was assassinated in his hiding place.Following the incident Binur received threats to his life that compelled him to take safety precautions, regarding which he is unwilling to expand.
