Middle East expert Daniel Pipes was in Israel recently and subsequently published an article entitled Israels Arabs, living a paradox in the Washington Times. I dont know Dr. Pipes personally, but I feel compelled to call him to task for his baseless and inflammatory attack on the Arab citizens of Israel.

I refer Pipes to a speech made by Yoram Cohen, the head of Israels Shin Bet internal security service in which he said, "
as a community, Arab Israelis are not a target of Shin Bet. They are not a fifth column and we do not view them as such
