Subject: "If it's terrorists we're after..." (October 22/01)

Dear Editor of Report (Alberta):

If it's award deserving journalists we're after (based on an essay that displays honesty, frankness and historical truth), let's start by nominating Jeff White. His argument is most compelling -- the roots of September 11 terrorist acts lie in the craven impunity with which unredressed terrorist acts are being committed against Palestinian victims, whose humanity the world community ignores or denies.

Terrorism begets terrorism. As Mr. White implies, it's a matter of having the moral fortitude to acknowledge atrocities that invite reprisal, to identify the perpetrators, and to bring them before the court of world opinion to account for the war crimes they falsely accuse others of committing.
