Good story. I hope you keep listening and seeing what they've got to say. Some people in the west seem to think that an Arabic perspective on news events is propoganda. It's like that old saying - one man's freedom fighter is another man's terrorist.

Indeed and I will.
Watching the reports on AL Jezeera and the BBC World News should give me a greater understanding of what is really happening.
I was once told by an old Socialist that in order to get a proper perspective on current affairs I should read three newspapers. The Guardian, The Morning Star and the Financial Times.
Another good thing about Al Jezeera English is that the BBC's former World Affairs Correspondent has signed up and will be presenting a nightly documentary called Witness.

And having watched David Frost's excellent interview with Tony Blair I am even more impressed.
And despite anything the spin doctors are saying he did admit that 'Iraq is a disaster...'. I heard him and so no doubt did several millions others around the world.
If that had happened on the BBC many heads would have rolled by now.
