I have been disappointed by your pro-Israel/anti-Palestinian bias seen throughout your coverage of Israel's assault on the Gaza Strip. I was especially disappointed on Dec. 31 to see on Page A11 a picture of four bearded, Arab American men wearing Palestinian kaffiyehs to represent the pro-Palestinian protesters who marched in Washington the night before. In fact, the protest was mostly attended by older women and children, as well as by non-Arab Americans like me. To have chosen that picture showed your attempt to paint the protesters as a radical few, rather than a 3,000-strong group that was as diverse as the United States itself. Shame on you for pandering to America's pro-Israel bias.
