CUSTOMER COMMENTS:
Why is Ralphs supporting extremist anti-Israel KPFK Radio? I am a regular shopper at Ralphs, but I recently noticed that Ralphs is supporting radio station KPFK, a radio station with an extremist anti-Israel agenda spearheaded by its propaganda program "Radio Intifada". Why? The very name Intifada (suggesting support of terrorism - shooting massacres, suicide bombings, intentional targeting of Israeli civilians with rockets, etc.) is an indication of the inappropriate message of this station. KPFK is spreading anti-Israel Hamas propaganda in Southern California. KPFK is also actively promoting anti-Israel demonstrations in the area. While Hamas has committed thousands of blatant war crimes in launching rockets and firing mortars intentionally targeting Israeli civilians, KPFK has aggressively promoted the hideously offensive notion that legitimate Israeli acts of self-defense against these acts of terrorism are somehow "war crimes". As an example take a look at this page on the KPFK website promoting discussion of Israeli "violations of international law". Note that there is no participant representing the Israeli side. http://www.kpfk.org/programs/166-radiointifada/1498-th-1-08-09-3pm-radio-intifada-special-israeli-violations-of-intl-law-demo-info.html In addition KPFK has taken an active role in promoting anti-Israel demonstrations as the above page and this page indicate http://www.kpfk.org/programs/166-radiointifada/1453-1-01-09-radio-intifada-gaza-update-aamp-programming.html
