| | Haaretz's Travesty of Language (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07) |

 | | It struck me that during and since the orange-stars uproar, Haaretz, quietly and seemingly unnoticed, continues with its outrageous travesty of language in which cold-blooded genocidists are referred to in “neutral,” “objective,” politically-correct terms. |
