The Hezbollah vs. Israel conflict: A Letter to the Guardian

Let's see if the Guardian publishes the following letter from Tony Klinger:

Sirs,

It is now confirmed by the NYTimes which reports on a new study that states, without doubt, Hezbollah stored weapons in mosques, battled Israelis from inside empty schools, flew white flags while transporting missiles and launched rockets near UN monitoring posts.

As important, the study also provides proof that 650 out of the 1,084 people the Lebanese government has said were civilians killed in the conflict were in fact Hezbollah terrorists.

I therefore ask why your newspaper, so ready to condemn everything Israel did in that conflict, does not now acknowledge this condemnation was ill conceived, and misinformed.

The answer is no. Editors are reluctant to publish anything that implies criticism of their editorial policy . Thefervently believe in free speach
