THE TELEGRAPH: Israel's attack on the Gaza flotilla was the main story of newspapers around the world.
Under the headline "Complicated relationship with the US grows more so", The Washington Post said that incident, coming days before Mr Netanyahu was due to meet President Obama at the White House for what they term a "kiss and make up session", has cast a serious cloud over US-Israeli relations.
"The timing of the incident is remarkably bad for Israel and the United States," the paper said.
The New York Times reported on street protests erupting around the world under the headline: "After deadly raid at sea, Israel is sharply criticised".
In France, the right-wing Le Figaro held back from outright condemnation, taking a cautious tone under the headline "Israel isolated after assault off Gaza". >>> | Tuesday, June 01, 2010
