New York Times Anti-Israel Bias in Editorials As Bad As Ever

Whether Israel employs military tactics to protect itself from terrorist attacks, or the peace process is stalled, even while Israeli civilians are being blown up by Palestinian terrorists, New York Times editorial writers stick to their consistent message--blame Israel and whitewash Palestinian responsibility.
