Palestinian journalists balk at strip search
None
A Palestinian journalist says he and three colleagues trying to cover US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton's news conference walked away after being asked to drop their pants in an Israeli security check.
The Palestinian journalists were invited to Monday's event by the US consulate, which sent a staffer to guide them through security. Mohammed Abu Khdeir of the Al Quds newspaper says Israeli and foreign journalists were not asked to strip. (AP)
