Media’s Take on Israeli, Palestinian Attacks

Re “Bloody Mess in Gaza,” editorial, May 20: The Israelis don’t have to wait in fear of violent retaliation on their cities and public meetings. They’ve had that terror many times. If the Palestinian terrorists could, they would kill every Israeli man, woman and child. Where were the international consciences, the European Union and United Nations when, in cold blood, the Palestinians killed a pregnant Israeli mother and her four little children in their car? Somehow it seems that your editorial and the way you present the news are biased against Israel.

I never thought I would see the day when I would find one of Michael Ramirez’s cartoons to my liking (Commentary, May 20). He surely got it right this time, showing a Palestinian boy tossing a rock at an Israeli soldier in a tank and then getting blown away. How anyone can sympathize with Israel these days, the way it is killing civilians, is beyond my imagination.
