Hi Scott,
I enjoyed reading your article Gaza Truce Won’t Be Widened to West Bank [Dec. 4, 2006]. It was very complete and largely fair but I wanted to bring up one point. You rightly point out that a Hamas spokesman said Israel had violated the truce, “although he did not specify how.” This indicates that there was no proof for this to be the case nor examples given.
But you ended the piece by saying that Islamic Jihad warned that the cease fire is on the edge of collapsing - because of Israeli violations. By not putting quotes around “Israeli violations” or calling the violations alleged, or saying “although the violations were not specified”, your article suggests it to be the truth – which I don’t believe was your intention. May I get your view on this?
