  Journalists Veer Off 'Road Map,' Crash Into Cease-Fire It seems that some members of the media are having a tough time differentiating the terms of the American brokered "road map" from Palestinian unilateral demands on Israel. Namely, while Palestinians have conditioned their cease-fire on the release of thousands of Palestinian prisoners from Israeli prisons (among other demands), the "road map" plan, drawn up by the United States, European Union, Russia, and the United Nations, has nothing at all to say about Palestinian prisoners.

The inaccuracy dragged CAMERA and Times editors down a long road of correspondences, which did not, unfortunately, lead to a published correction. The saga says something about the Times' unwillingness in the face of evidence to set the record straight. Hate Not Taught on Both Sides In a lengthy feature article today entitled "Mideast Violence Moves to the Home Front; For Israelis and Palestinians alike, conflict spills over into other circles of life," correspondent Tracy Wilkinson makes absurd equivalences between the expression of violence in Palestinian and Israeli societies.

Peace Process Unraveled?
