I think there is probably a lack of balance in U.S. media, to the extent that the American public are simply not being told about Palestinians being killed. I wish we could get Al Jazeera on U.S. cable and satellite services.

I saw a program on the Middle East on a Canadian news network last night, and I was greatly impressed with how much more balanced the coverage was than what we see on the U.S. networks. They came to the conclusion that there is a failure of leadership on both sides.

Assuming the numbers are as you say they are, that still leaves this question: Can you point to even one case where the Palestinians have warned Israelis to get out of a building before they blew it up?

Seems to me it is the Palestinians who have been trained to see some lives as less valuable than others.
