"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest for freedom, go home and leave us in peace. We seek not your council nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

The leaders of the Palestinian Journalists' Syndicate overruled the decision to ban photos of armed children and masked militants at Palestinian rallies. Good for them.

Naim Tobassi, Palestinian Journalists' Syndicate Chief in the West Bank, said that the union was committed to opposing all attempts to interfere with the work of journalists. "The union will do its best to facilitate the mission of foreign correspondents and Palestinian journalists at all times," said Mr. Tobassi. "It rejects all threats to journalists' work and will have nothing to do with declarations on restrictions of journalists and their work."
