Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman met with Yaron Dekel, the head of Israel Defense Forces Radio, Thursday, to discuss the broadcast, earlier in the week, of a program dedicated to anti-Israel poet Mahmoud Darwish. Dekel had said that he would defend the station's freedom of expression.
Liberman said there's a big difference between freedom of expression and freedom of incitement. Dekel said the airing of a text does not mean taking its side but conceded it could be taken the wrong way.
