rates as propaganda To the editor: I do not know what the "mission" of former local resident Timothy Seidel is in the Middle East, but I do know the purpose of his writing is nothing more than propaganda sponsored by his hometown newspaper. This is the second column I have read where Seidel paints Jews as bloodthirsty land-grabbers intent on persecuting and brutally oppressing Palestinians who he portrays as "victims" seeking nothing more than peaceful coexistence with Israel. In his latest, he presents a Masa Tahu, a beleaguered Palestinian who remembers an image of Americans giving flour and shaking hands with Palestinians before, as Seidel states, "they became a military occupation force intent on controlling the region's natural resources." Seidel's Marxist views contain little truth of what caused the Palestinian plight. |
