War mongering in the New York Times, again!

This is WRONG!

The war-mongering editorial in Friday's (6/18/08) New York Times [this time, instead of Darfur, they are advocating bombing Iran!] Using bombs to stave off war proves yet again that the New York Times has been seriously compromised ethically.

Here is author Benny Morris, from a 2004 interview: [Referring to Sharon's Security Wall] "Something like a cage has to be built for them. I know that sounds terrible. It is really cruel. But there is no choice. There is a wild animal there that has to be locked up in one way or another.".

This is very sad news. I as well as countless others, have TRUSTED the New York Times in an era of an alarmingly narrow window of media afforded this priceless pact.

Those days are over.

Here reprinted in the International Herald Tribune [of course, where else?] is the full, New York Times editorial, whose phony tone appeals for the moral "ok" from readers to do nothing less than to bomb Iran!

THIS IS NOT OK!!

We are not starting another war!

Using bombs to starve off war [this headline alone, is inflammatory and to put it bluntly, illogical!]
