In the course of one week, the New York Times changed its account of James Baker's famous statement in Congress

"Rewind to June 13, 1990: Mr. Baker, fed up after his own diplomatic efforts, told the House Foreign Affairs Committee that if Israel’s right-wing government did not ease its conditions for talks with the Palestinians, there would be no progress. He was also incensed that Israel’s defense minister had visited two Jewish settlements in the West Bank, in what he later called a symbolic rebuff to the United States."  Wait: was it not last week when the Times claimed that Baker was talking about both the Palestinians and the Israelis?
