The Associated Press: Uprising Without Explanation
http://www.pmwatch.org/pmw/reports/ap/ap061702.html
Please let the Associated Press know that we have had ENOUGH of their whitewashing of war-crimes.
Please take the time to call the Associated Press and express your feelings. This is the very, very least we can do in support of the brave human rights activists who are literally now risking their lives against the blind brutality of the Israeli army.

Please do take the time to make the calls and send the emails. It is a crime that people are willing to risk a great deal only to have their heroic actions either ignored, distorted and twisted, or outright lied about. We, as media monitors and activists, have the crucial role to play of ensuring that the American public and the world is told the truth about their struggle and the suffering of the Palestinians they are trying to protect.
