Ma'ariv Online's English edition is running a poll "What should be done
with Vanunu?" - in which one of the options is "be killed".

If you cannot open the attachment, go to www.maariv.co.il and click on
English Edition. At the bottom of the page there is an option for
contacting the editors. Please express your disgust and protest at this 
dangerous and offensive "opinion poll". Inform the editors that you will 
boycott the paper.

You should know, that an official complaint against Ma'ariv has been
served by Gideon Spiro of the Israeli Committee for Mordechai Vanunu for a
previous death threat that the paper carried in a column by Dan Margalit.

Please respond quickly.

Rayna Moss

sample letter, to be used as is, or as inspiration for your own text
To the editor of Maariv 

I hereby urge you to immediately remove the disgusting Vanunu opinion 
poll. A respectable newspaper does not publish a questionnaire in which 
killing a person after he was released from prison is a legitimate option.
You can be accused of incitement to murder.

If you don't stop this immediately and I don't receive from you an 
apology then I will from now on boycott your paper, the printed as well 
as the electronic versions.  

[your name and address]
