R. Walter Franco: Coverage of Israel

Dear Editor, Your coverage of the Israeli incursion into Palestinian Authority 's Areas is biased at best, your choice of words when you mention the treatment of journalist by the IDF and accuse the soldiers of thievery is not only twisting propaganda but showing your anti Semitic background.

I wonder what happened during the Russian Army's war in Chechnya, the press were not accorded the rights that you mention should be accorded to International Press card holders, Journalist should report what they can corroborate in light of facts and not propagandizing which is clearly unethical, you may have an opinion that is sympathetic to the so call "underdog" but you must observe ethical standards to convey truthful information, as a Newspaper with a long history and tradition it is disappointing to read articles devoid of objectivity that not benefit neither side.

Cordially yours R. Walter Franco
