It’s nice to see this Wall St. Journal correction after an update on Qassam fire reported that “Tel Aviv responded with air and ground fire . . .”
The recent decision to respond to Gaza militants firing rockets into southern Israel was made by the Israeli government in Jerusalem. A World-Wide item Friday incorrectly said the response was from Tel Aviv, which is where Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak had met with some of his military leaders.
As a reader pointed out to the WSJ, the original wording reinforces the belief that Jerusalem is not the legitimate capital of Israel.
