Esseff: If you don't believe that Salon has a pro-Israeli bias, then I suggest that you haven't read Salon very much or for very long. I have been reading Salon since its inception, and I still have yet to see even one article by a Palestinian to balance the hundreds by Israelis and American Jews. Indeed, I haven't even seen an article by someone like Michael Lerner. Further, David Talbot was a quite fanatic supporter of Israel including Israeli settlements.
I don't ask for exclusion of pro-Israeli points of view, I would simply like some balance - something Salon has never had on Palestinian-Israeli issues.
As for Juan Cole, he is somewhat less pro-Israeli, but the idea that he presents a countervailing perspective is ridiculous. Salon would never permit that.
