Statement of Medyan Dairieh.
I interviewed Muhammed Sawalha of the British Muslim Initiative at the 60th Birthday Celebrations for Israel in London on Sunday 29 June for Aljazeera

Due to a typo the word lobby (written in Arabic) has been mistranslated as ‘evil’ by the British media when in fact my misspelling renders the word absolutely meaningless. So ‘Jewish lobby’ is being touted as ‘evil Jew’.
I want to make it absolutely clear that Muhammed Sawalha did not refer to Jews in this way and that even my spelling mistake does not refer to Jews as evil.
The mistake is on the part of the British media who have problems translating Arabic in to English.

It is unfortunate that the British media has chosen to source its material from Harry’s place which is not an impeccable source.
