There is a gross imbalance in the coverage of matters relating to Israel. Look at the massive reporting of the capture of Gilad Shalit. Just 24 hours prior to that event, Israelis commandos launched an incursion into Gaza and kidnapped 2 civilians, a doctor and his brother, taking them bak to the Israeli prison system. Although this was a serious crime, it wasn't reported anywhere in the western mainstream. That makes me sad.
