New York Times defends war crimes by Libyan rebels

"Such rebels actions, however, have paled next to the abuses of Colonel Qaddafi’s forces".  Do you notice that New York Times reporters are allowed to use loose language and unreliable sources if it is not about Israel.  Can you imagine a New York Times reporter allowed to write: Hamas actions, however, have paled next to the abuses of Israeli army?   Never in a million year.
