Well, you have to ask yourself how you feel about treating the Arab press as reliable. Do you, for example, believe that the entire war in Iraq is a Jewish conspiracy launched by sinister "neocons" who are actually pawns of the state of Israel? That would, after all, be the standard story of the war as reported in the Arab press. I tend to trust other media just a tiny bit more... ---- The Same press that was all over the Texas-Cyanide Bomber story? The One where they captured conspirators with ~~actual~~ WMD, capable of killing tens of thousands. Oh, wait. They _didn't_ report on the Texas-Cyanide Bomber story. ----- The world Orwell described does not require complete control of the press, just a very large market share. -Kuro5hin Poster
