You are a never-ending source of amusement, I must say. Big, bad Washington has ordered all the Arab countries to control their presses? They didn't think of this on their own?

Don't tell me, I know the Chomsky answer -- everything wrong in the world is America's fault, unless it happens to be Israel's. Do you know how similar you guys sound to Bin Laden? |
