#1 More "censorship" in Iraq, no doubt.

#2 Ok, who wants to bet that this station turns anti-american within 5 years and we'll continue to fund it as leftist scream freedom of speech and censorship when people call for us to discontinue funding?

#3 DPA - if they haven't planned for that - then they are stupid! I'd put 100% on your prediction were someone to set up a "futures" on that.

What they need to do is to fund it with a definite end date, completely dismatle it and then, if they want to start it up again, let the US military start the project over from scratch. Otherwise it will be infiltrated and abused!!

Shame on US if we don't plan for that.

#4 Free Hour is patterned after Nightline and Larry King Live

Jesus. They'll really hate us now.

#5 I was looking at Hammorabi's blog...he likes Al-Hurrah and has a wonderful, very well illustrated article about the history of the Shi'a sect. Well worth the visit, if only for the pictures!
