The Michigan Peace Team purports to be in the defense of human rights and nonviolence. However, a closer examination of the group's objectives reveals a distorted viewpoint that impinges on its ability to generate peace. From his statements, Michael Vicente Perez seems to believe that the violence inherent in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict arises predominately from the Israeli side ("Caught in the middle," SN 3/31).

Two popular computer services - e-mail and search engines - are scheduled to combine with a new "Gmail" service provided by Google Inc. Announced Wednesday, the Web-based e-mail system would be free for users and offers 1 gigabyte of storage, more than 100 times the amount of rival free e-mail service providers.
