Response to On the News Item:

Apparent violations of international law during Israeli actions in the West Bank


June 2, 2002

While you correctly note in the article "Apparent Violations of Int'l Law During Israeli Actions in the West Bank" that acts of terror against civilians constitute a clear violation of int'l law, the title does not express this fact and therefore, presents an unbalanced view.

Thank you for speaking the truth.

Thanks for an otherwise brave article, however, I am wondering why you consider Israeli violations to be "apparent" and "alleged" while calling Palestinian violations "clear." I also note that you use the term "terrorist," only when referring to Palestinians. This seems rather odd, especially considering the sheer volume and severity of Israeli violations against the civilian population and the abundance of eyewitness reports (even from international human rights bodies) that Israeli soldiers are systematically perpetrating these atrocities in territory that is, according to international law, illegally occupied. I suspect all wars involve crimes, but should we disproportionately blame the victims?

A simple question… why do you not report both sides of the story?
