I agree that we should be careful about editorials.  However, the London Times is not even close to being like newspapers such as the Washington Times et al.  The LT is a very comprehensive and thoughtful newspaper which engages in reporting as honest as pretty much any on the planet.  Rarely, if ever, does it tilt to any sort of partisan agenda.  This article seems to be as honest as any could be on the matter and should be included as it appears to be NPOV.
