#2 Our jounalists(???)should take note of how they might be treated in other countries other than democracies. Maybe our journalists should get their "spurs" by having to work for an Egyptian weekly before they are able to practice their crap in this country. Maybe they would be less inclined to sit on their spurs so often.

#3 Can you imagine what would have happened to the New York Slimes crew if they had dumped a story on the regime in Egypt like they just published here ? They would be in some dungeon in extreme pain now. Executed next week.
