So the WMM (weapons of mass media) attack has officially been launched at Al-Jazeera. Most people who choose not to live in the sugar coated, doctored news world knew this was coming eventually. The ironic side of the pro Bin Laden accusations that are being made towards Al-Jazeera show nothing more than head shaking/finger waiving on our part being the U.S. Here an international television station airs treats against our country in the months leading to 9/11 but no action on our part, just the unmistakable reaction that has been etched into our minds. I'm sorry, I guess I'm speaking in terms of hindsight bias.
So next time an international television station which does not filter their news like we do, decides to air threats from our business partners, opps I mean our enemies, we should try to listen.
But what do I know, I'm just the 800 pound gorilla in the room.
