Does Reuters read the news?

Reuters continues to run interference for the Palestinians as the latter continue to reject direct peace talks with Israel.  In the same mold as the transparent PR piece we discuss just below, correspondent Matt Spetalnick apologizes for Palestinian rejectionism:

Palestinian leaders remain wary because of Israeli settlement activity on land they want for an independent state and what they see as a insufficient progress in slow-moving "proximity" talks.

Memo to Spetalnick: there is no Israeli "settlement activity" occurring anywhere outside of the 1949 Armistice Lines.
