What part do the Israeli media play in the incitement against asylum seekers? In recent months, the media seems to report rape, murder, robbery and other crimes only when they are perpetrated, apparently, by asylum seekers. One would think that before the arrival of asylum seekers to Israel, there was no crime. Journalists are not bothering about the journalistic ethics, which prevent the publishing the suspects’ origins, expect when the crime directly relates to the country of origin. This encourages xenophobia and tensions in the neighborhoods of south Tel Aviv.
