[edit] Blanked section

I blanked the following

==Criticisms== Siddiqui courts controversy. Writing in Toronto Life in June 2001, Robert Fulford maintained that "Siddiqui makes the most strenuous effort to bathe Third World countries in a soft light. No matter how outrageous its actions, a non-Western government can usually count on him for a little understanding." HonestReporting Canada, a media watchdog group that monitors and reports on what it perceives as anti-Israel bias, accuses him of "one-sided criticism of Israel" in columns on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict [1].

Critics also charge that Siddiqui harbours anti-American bias, and that he is too quick to dismiss the threat of Islamic terrorism. Describing him as "the Toronto Star's resident Islamist," they accuse him of exploiting latent anti-Americanism in Canada to promote Islamist goals both there and abroad [2] [3].

Because all the citations fail WP:RS and the section itself give WP:UNDUE and violates WP:BLP. Thanks Taprobanus 21:35, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
