Peace Talks

• December 2 -- An
Officially Unofficial Middle East Peace Deal
James Bennet's story on a "peace deal" touted by left-wing
Israelis is accompanied by this photo caption: "Palestinian protesters
yesterday tried to stop an unidentified delegate from going to Geneva to meet
Israeli delegates and sign an official truce." But the treaty is
unofficial--neither government is involved.
• December 2 -- Propping
Up Prospects for a Left-Wing "Peace" Deal
Elaine Sciolino calls an unofficial left-wing Israeli peace deal a rebuke to
"hard-line" Ariel Sharon, and indulges in moral equivalency.
• June 17 --
The Times’ Muddled Middle East
Morality
A front-page story by Greg Myre and Ian Fisher again shifts the blame for the
failure of the Middle East “peace process” to the Israeli government, rather
than the Palestinian terror group Hamas. The Times also attempts to position
Israel and Hamas at two extremes--with the PLO as a voice of moderation.
• June 11 -- Israel Targeting of
a Terrorist “Damages” Peace Talks
Middle East correspondent Greg Myre again puts the entire burden for the success
of the “peace process” on Israel, saying its retaliation against a terror attack
“further damaged an already fragile Middle East peace plan.”
