Iraqi Government Shuts Al-Jazeera Station
2004-08-07
Apparently the Iraqi government suspects Al-Jazeera is inciting violence. I would not have figured it. I thought they were unbiased reporters just doing their Jihad jobs.

#1  "It's regrettable and we believe it's not justifiable," Al Jazeera spokesman Jihad Ballout said. "This latest decision runs contrary to all the promises made by Iraqi authorities concerning freedom of expression and freedom of the press."
EMPHASIS ADDED

Fer f%&k's sake, the spokesman's first name is "Jihad." Doesn't this tell you anything? Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness just happen to take a front seat to spewing terrorist propaganda. I'm very glad Iraq realizes this, it is a ray of hope for their new government.
