LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Double standards in the US media over the Holloway case

Tuesday, April 18, 2006

Dear Sir:

How long will the American hypocritical mass media continue to blow the one tragic event of Natalee Holloway out of proportion, while ignoring the immense suffering of tens of thousands of innocent Iraqis, and Palestinians?

The media's tactics to blow one individual case up to divert the attention of the public away from the immense atrocities committed by its own are deplorable.

If the same attention was given to everybody who mysteriously disappeared in the USA, there would not be enough paper to print it on.

I hope the Holloway case is solved soon, and moved from the front page to page 7 or 8.

The emotional pains of her parents and all that knew her should be kept private, not be used to attract attention to boost sales.

Iraqi and Palestinian mothers who lost their often younger than Natalie children from illegal military war crimes of the USA and Zionist Israel deserve at least as much attention, if not twice as much..
