Ala jazeera will be coming out with an English broadcast soon that we can hopefully get on cable or satellite. I do watch a show called mosaic on a leftist station which translates the top stories of the day from various places, such as Saudi Arabia, Iran, Egypt and others. Their coverage is good, but with a spin like ours. If you can get past the spin, you'll learn alot. Not that I like the graphic gory pictures, but I don't see that on our stations. I was surprised to see Iran covered the last insurgent attack on civilians so graphically. It was kind of gross, and very sad. Hate to say this, but I like some of the leftist (donation funded) programs. Some are quite neutral, believe it or not. Despite popular beleif, they do not pull any punches when it comes to Islamic extremists. They have many programs highlighting the fight for freedom within the Arab world. The other night, they had a program on which talked about the President of Iran before the Ayotolla (our best friend) and how he was overthrown with our help (because he wanted to nationalize their oil), and that the Ayotolla forcefully converted dissident Iranians via torture to Islam and generally took away the freedoms (especially for women) they had gained.
Due to our meddling, we have brought about many unintended consequences. As an independent, I just want empire seekers to think about the past and try not to make the same mistakes.
