Richard Baehr is, of course, right when he notes that The New York Times (and, indeed, most of the world) reflexively blames Israel for everything.  I especially enjoyed it after reading a wonderful Haim Harari lecture at FrontPage magazine.  Harari lucidly explains that, while Israel is blamed for everything, the problems in the Arab world have nothing to do with Israel, and everything to do with their own culture.  He then goes on to discuss the war being waged against us, the weapons used, and the responses we have available.  It's an A++ article and, as I said, ties in nicely with Mr. Baehr's comment.
