Propaganda from the Los Angeles Times
[CAMERA] Alex Safian - "Pistol-toting" Israeli settlers who allegedly "covet" (note the biblical reference) and steal Palestinian land are described by Richard Boudreaux of the Los Angeles Times in a Dec. 27 front-page story, "A West Bank Struggle Rooted in Land." Boudreaux includes all the usual dreary cliches: the Palestinian protagonist, Daoud Nassar, is described as "a square-jawed man of 37 with a calm, hopeful disposition." Boudreaux cites as credible claims made by the group Taayush, which he describes as "a Tel Aviv-based organization that advocates Israeli-Palestinian cooperation." Yet according to the Taayush website, the only "Israeli-Palestinian cooperation" the group would support is the dismantling of Israel. Quoting Taayush, and affording them credibility, is like quoting the KKK on race relations.
