ISRAEL AMBASSADOR: SLIP OF THE TRUTH?

The Israeli ambassador to Australia made a slip of the tongue that many would say was in fact a case of letting the truth slip out. During a recent live conference, Amir Maimon said, “We are not the victims” - before quickly correcting himself and claiming Israel is not the aggressor in the current Gaza conflict, but is the victim.

With the Gaza death toll now exceeding 11,000 - including thousands of children - and hundreds killed in the West Bank recently, many would say Palestinians are the victims. Was Maimon‘s slip of the tongue an inadvertent admission of that fact?
