About a week or two ago I was watching CNN, and there was an attractive female reporter who was interviewing one of the PA's most disingenous, dissembling spokesmen, Saeb Erekat. Anyway, she was extremely well-prepared for the interview, asking very tough questions which displayed an understanding of the Israeli position regarding the conflict, and which at first surprised Mr. Erekat, before pissing him off. She was really getting under his skin, I guess because he was expecting the usual softball questions, and here was a CNN reporter who was actually asking hard-hitting questions and not displaying the typical CNN anti-Israel slant. So anyway, while she was talking I was wondering whether this could be Ralitsa Vassileva, since as Ian points out in the liner notes to the song, she is rarely seen here in the States, and then sure enough it was her! Ian's comment about her being "a journalist of the most responsible and professional sort" are spot on. And the song, I might add, is one of Ian's finest in recent years.

Cool.....leave it to Ian to identify the jewel in a turd bowl! Gotta love those brave Hamas leaders...stashing weapons in schools, mosques and hospitals then running to Syria and other distant points to whine to the media!
