Israel: Hamas Representative Not Identified in Guardian Column
[Jewish Chronicle-UK] Anshel Pfeffer - The Guardian has refused to publish a letter from Israeli Embassy press attache in London Lior Ben-Dor complaining that a Nov. 21 article by Palestinian academic Azzam Tamimi had not properly identified him as Hamas' London representative. Ben -Dor wrote: "It is truly lamentable that the Guardian chose to give Tamimi such a prestigious platform. It is even more lamentable that the paper did not inform the readers who Tamimi really is and what he represents," writing that Tamimi "is de facto Hamas' spokesperson and representative in London."
