Reply #266: We can find that information right here in the Israeli-Palestinian

forum, and elsewhere on the net.

It is true that we do not see what you see in our mainstream media. However, stories are available in other sources. Most of us here on DU know about it, and most of us are Americans. How else do U.S. churches and NGOs of various types get information that causes them to talk about divesting in Israel?

That the main media outlets don't print those stories is really another subject, and is frequently debated here and elsewhere. However, it is most certainly legal for anyone for anyone to print anything on any controversial subject.


On edit: Information about the oil bourse and the discontinuation of M-3 is available in the financial press and in specialty publications directed at those who follow these issues closely. Detailed financial stories can sometimes be found in the NYT because it is essentially local economic news. I wouldn't expect to find it in daily circulation papers elsewhere.
