Bush Proxies Seek More Isolation?

Al Arabiya, a Dubai-based TV channel, has been banned from Iraq by our proxy-puppet government.

In a similar incident, the US-backed government in Iraq imposed a ban on Al Jazeera, another prominent Arabic channel two years ago. The ban has not been lifted yet.

Ali Muhammed, an Iraqi national, says:

Initially they banned Al Jazeera, and now Al Arabiya. It shows that the Americans want to keep what goes on in Iraq a hush-hush affair. The Iraqi government seems like just a tool in the hands of Americans. Now the Arab world lost the chance to know what is exactly happening in Iraq.

When a Danish daily published blasphemous cartoons, the Western media branded it as freedom of expression. Why all of them shut their mouth now?

Ahmed Rafeeq, a Lebanese national, said:

I am sure the Iraqi government closed down Al Arabiya office as part of a US plan. They do not want the truth to come out.

The best way they found is to close down the Arabic channels which talk against them.

The Arab world definitely lost the chance to get the true stories on Iraq war now. All the Western media which report pro-US stories have no ban imposed on them.
