I did know they had kicked out al Jazeera and came to the same conclusion as you. But was al Jazeera the only Arabic language channel in Iraqi? I've seen others, usually state run, like Lebanon, etc. It could be they relied on al Jazeera for their "reporting."

I don't know. I also recall having seen "TV Abu Dabai," or some such thing. But I wasn't sure that they were actually in Baghdad. I think al Jazeera was, although I'm not absolutely certain that it was the only one.
