Ravid: Photos of synagogue murder 'pornographic'

Barak Ravid, writing for Haaretz, has criticised the distribution of photos from the scene of the killings in the Jerusalem synaogue:

"It’s highly doubtful that such pornographic public diplomacy will win Israel any more supporters abroad. It’s more likely that they will merely inflame Israeli public opinion against the Palestinians, increase the hostility against Arabs and serve as weapons in the hands of those inciting toward revenge."
