Dear Editor,
I am all for free speech, but free propaganda? Lebanon’s Prime Minister Fouad Siniora, in his Op-Ed [Aug. 9, 2006], starts by referring to the current war in his country as “Israel’s savage war on Lebanon and the Lebanese people.” He curiously omits any reference to Hezbollah’s kidnapping of two Israeli soldiers, killing of eight others, and the firing of rockets into Israel – the reason the war started.
In a mis-direction play that would make a football coach proud, Siniora states his version of the “root cause of this war –Israeli occupation of Lebanese territories and its perennial threat to Lebanon’s security.” Really? No mention of Hezbollah’s raison d’etre – to destroy Israel?
