Analysis: Optimistic tone set for peace talks

Date: Tuesday, September 2, 2010

This is an analysis by Paul Richter and Christi Parsons

Omission. Misleading: "One reason [for optimism] is that Palestinian violence now is at a lower level than it often has been." Omitted was any reference to a flurry of rocket and mortar attacks from Gaza as the talks were starting.

Opinion. Misleading: "The leadership [of the Palestinian Authority] is considered relatively moderate and is well-regarded by the West."
