Jerusalem Post Fires Columnist Over Comments Justifying Palestinian Terrorism - NYTimes.com

Jerusalem Post Fires Columnist Over Comments Justifying Palestinian Terrorism - NYTimes.com: In a brief “Note to Readers” published Tuesday on the front page of The Jerusalem Post, the newspaper announced that it had parted ways with a columnist who wrote last week on his blog that terrorist attacks on Israelis were “justified” because Palestinians living under Israeli occupation since 1967 “have a right to resist.”

The note from the English-language daily read in full: “Due to a professional disagreement with Larry Derfner connected to his personal blog, he will no longer be working at The Jerusalem Post.”
