WASHINGTON (AP) - Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld and his top military adviser said Tuesday they have evidence the Arab television news organizations Al-Jazeera and Al-Arabiya cooperated with Iraqi insurgents to witness and videotape attacks on American troops.

Rumsfeld said the effort fit a pattern of psychological warfare used by remnants of the Baathist government, who want to create the impression that no amount of U.S. firepower can end the insurgency.

``They've called Al-Jazeera to come and watch them do it (attack American troops), and Al-Arabiya,'' he told a Pentagon news conference. ```Come and see us, watch us; here is what we're going to do.'''

Pressed for details, Rumsfeld and Gen. Richard Myers, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, both indicated that U.S. forces in Iraq had collected more than just circumstantial evidence that one or both of the Arab news organizations might have cooperated with the attackers.

``Yes, I've seen scraps of information over a sustained period of time,'' Rumsfeld said. ``I'm not in a position to make a final judgment on it,'' but it needs to be examined in an ``orderly way,'' he added.

I did not see you post about the way journalists were treated in Iraq before saddam got booted!
I do not hear you talking about the freedom of the press in Saudi Arabia or Yemen or any other "free" countries that you seem to like so much!

OK... Got it... Let's replace a dictator by ... another dictator??? The way the press was treated BEFORE has nothing to do with the " spin" of accusing a TV station of collaboration even tough their is no evidence.

The subject of this debate is not Saudia Arabia, Yemen, North Korea, Egypt, Israel or any other country... Rumsfeld was not talking about those countries or news outfit from those countries, so why should I,

You can always start a thread on those countries. I will then address it if I feel like it.

The big picture is : the spin and the lie and then the censorship...

Get it????
