Bush wanted to bomb Al-Jazeera's studios

But bombing their studios is obviously criminal.

Hey, there's plenty of people who are not a big fan of the USA or Bush.

Still they think bombing them is criminal. (and this includes a lot of people living in the axis of evil. I can personnally attest to this.)

[Ted Striker]

Yeah, I know, and in fact I had a friend in the Axis of Evil. (Iran)

I always wonder how she's doing.

The Iranian kids are especially sympathetic towards the USA.

Ted, you prolly just missed that part of the news, it was pretty big news then... I'm sure they didn't miss that one in there.

I'm sure they did - far too embarrassing to report that to the public...

Just like they tried to ban these:

[Ted Striker]

Yeah, our media is heavily censored. Alot of it comes from the government, the rest of it from corporate sponsors.

[MOBIUS]

Oh, another 97 US soldiers dead in less than a month...

Can't say I remember those stories either, but then nothing this administration does these days surprises me.

[Sikander]

Damn, you guys either have bad memories or need better quality news sources. I stick pretty much with American sources (NYTimes, Newshour, local newspaper) and I remember all of that stuff.

Biased news

You say that as if it weren't already so. I hear Log Cabins are quite lonely though.

Why does the Bush Administration hate free speach?

Because the truth makes them look bad.

I remember both, and people said I was crazy when I argued that neither was an accident. I guess I'm owed yet another apology.

You people really need to start listening to me.

I get the feeling this is yet another case of your 'selective memory' kicking in, chegitz guevara. Care to document this instance of omniscience?

Well we still don't know for sure if Bush was serious, joking or if he even said those things.

But something fishy is going on that's for sure

Cabinet Office civil servant David Keogh has been charged under the Official Secrets Act of passing the memo to former Labour MP Tony Clarke's researcher Leo O'Connor.

Both men are due to appear at Bow Street Magistrates Court next week.

Last week Labour MP and former defence minister Peter Kilfoyle tabled a Commons motion calling for the memo to be made public.

He accused ministers of using the Official Secrets Act to save political embarrassment rather than protect national security as it is intended.

Mutual suspicion

Lord Goldsmith also denied the Act was being used to prevent political embarrassment.

"It is not being used to save the embarrassment of a politician. That is completely not the case at all."

He also refused to confirm the contents of the memo.

BBC security correspondent Frank Gardner says this latest row follows a history of tension and mutual suspicion between al-Jazeera and the US administration.

Many of al-Jazeera's employees have long been privately convinced that their offices in Kabul and Baghdad were deliberately targeted by the Pentagon in 2001 and 2003 respectively.
