Oh come on now, why's everyone so sensitive (you a Kerry supporters or something) it wasn't an attack, I was chiding you.

but being a bozo , hmmm , attack the writers,, do not discuss media bias,, attack , attack

The article is older than that - maybe you should have searched the Internet, instead of your underwear drawer. (For those of you who are humor deficient - the previous comment was a joke and not an attack).

I did a search yesterday before posting

Well I used the word "supposedly" to indicate that the Israeli spying story is an allegation is not proved. That being said, the FBI has kept up the investegation into allegations of Israeli spying for two years, and were reported to be close to making arrests prior to Ashcroft reportedly getting involved in the case last week and putting a kaibosh on arrests until he had reviewed the material. So possibly there is nothing there, althought I can't imagine the FBI interviewing senior Pentagon officials, Ashcroft getting involved, and government officials leaking the story, if the allegations are completely without foundation.

plus we have condemned Israeli for spies in the pentagon yet to be proven

As I pointed out in my post I got the article from the online version of the NYT - I don't know what page it was on. On the internet, every web page is the same - the page placement doesn't affect how many people read it - the number of links to it is far more important.
It would be great if your original post said something like i found it in nytimes on page 24 etc

Well I was pointing out a mistake in a previous post - namely that the article hand't appeared in the NYT or the post (I didn't check the post). I merely pointed out that the article had appeared in the times. Now you are making a different argument - that the article was burried in the NYT. As I have pointed out above, where an article appears in an on-line newspaper is more or less irrelevant.
and perhaps a comment on media bias

Speaking of the media bias at the NYT - is Judith Miller still writing there? Has she found any more stockpiles of WMD?
