[edit] Controversy
On July 30th 2006, in an interview with Miri Eisen, an Israeli spokeswoman, during the Lebanon War, Rosemary Church asked questions that were interpreted by some as reflecting anti-Israeli bias. She charged the Israeli spokeswoman of "allowing" Hezbollah's Katyusha rockets to hit Israel, claiming Israel had the "capability" to shoot them down when, in fact, they do not have that ability.[1]
