Penning propaganda can be perplexing

One of the many ways Reuters acts as advocate for the Palestinian Arabs is to risibly grant them authority to appoint the mayor of Jerusalem -- or is that governor?

From the Jihan Abdalla story we commented on below:

"The court clearly sided with the other party, and this proves that the Israeli courts have never been fair to Palestinians," said Adnan Husseini, the Palestinian Authority-appointed mayor of Jerusalem and a member of the extended family.

 And from a Reuters story written by Tom Perry last year:

More investment is crucial to sustaining Palestinian life in East Jerusalem and combating Israel's efforts to deepen its control of the city, said Adnan al-Husseini, the Palestinian Authority-appointed governor of Jerusalem.

Too funny.
