"Israel's ambassador to the United States, Danny Ayalon, dispatched a letter of protest to influential national daily newspapers The Washington Post and the Los Angeles Times in response to their publishing of guest columns by Hamas political bureau chief Khaled Meshal and his deputy, Moussa Abu Marzouk, Israel Radio reported on Saturday.
In addressing the editors of both publications, Ayalon said that while he holds freedom of the press in high regard, he expects a newspaper to distinguish between legitimate national claims and incitement to hatred.
The ambassador noted that the U.S. government classifies the Islamic group as a terrorist organization. For both newspapers to provide a respectable forum to those who seek Israel's destruction is inconceivable, Israel Radio quoted Ayalon as saying."
