Meanwhile, police in Israel have shut down a Jerusalem radio station
whose stated mission was to bring Israelis and Palestinians together.
During a raid on Monday, police confiscated the station’s equipment and
detained eight workers. Israeli officials accused RAM FM of
broadcasting without a permit. The station broadcasts in Jerusalem and
Ramallah. It was started a year ago by a South African Jewish
businessman who modeled it after a South African station which was set
up in apartheid South Africa in the 1980s.
