Iranian radio to broadcast the "Voice Of David", in Hebrew
 
TEHRAN, 10 Jun.  (AFP-IPS) Iranian State-run radio this week will launch
30-minute daily news bulletins in Hebrew aimed at "countering the
monopoly on one-sided news broadcasts", Islamic Republic of Iran
Broadcasting (IRIB) told the French news agency AFP Monday. 
 
The newscast, dubbed the "Voice of David", is scheduled to start on
Tuesday and will be broadcast every night from 23H30 to 24H00 local time
(1900 to 1930), the agency quoted the "Voice and Visage of the Islamic
Republic (VVIR) that is directly controlled by the leader of the Iranian
theocracy, Ayatollah Ali Khameneh'i, as having announced. 
 
"The Voice of David is aimed at providing proper news for the people in
the Middle East and can also be heard over the internet" site of the
radio -- irib.com -- an official at the VVIR told AFP, adding that the
news bulletin cannot be heard by listeners inside Iran, which has a
population of some 27,000 Jews, the largest in the Middle East and
officially recognised by the regime. 
 
Tehran does not recognise the Jewish State, which Mr.  Khameneh'i has
likened to a "cancerous tumor" planted in the Middle East and must be
eradicated, and instead supports the Palestinian intifada, or uprising,
which since its start two years ago, has left more than one thousands
dead among both Palestinians and Israelis, most of them civilians and
leading the two communities to a state of war. 
 
Since almost no one in Iran, but a few among the Jewish community speaks
Hebrew, sources contacted by Iran Press Service in Tehran speculated
that professional Palestinian journalists fluent in that language have
been hired to run the program. 
 
The newscast is an addition to the "Qods" (Jerusalem) news service
started months ago by the official news agency IRNA and is aimed at
countering the Persian service of Radio Israel, which has a large
audience both inside Iran and among Iranian Diaspora of more than 3
millions. 
 
However, considering the very poor audience of Iranian public media,
particularly in news fields that follows a strict propaganda line
dictated by the ruling conservatives, encouraging Iranians to turn to
foreign radio stations or Iranian broadcastings from outside the
country, observers doubt the "Voice of David" would attract much
listeners in Israel, live alone the region, where a very few speaks
Hebrew.  ENDS VOICE OF DAVID 10602
