Adam Housley of Fox news just had a breaking story that Kuwait television is reporting that a couple of Al Jazeera reporters were chased out of Basra by an angry mob upset over how Al Jazeera has been reporting on the region. The Kuwaitis let them in in order to rescue them.

It is time for the Jaazera Jokers to repent. So should CNN.

They have been outright lying. Spreading propagands so ridiculous that it insults even the Palestinians sensibilities.

They cried "wolf" once too often and now even Arabs are shunning them for western media. They don't want to hear lies, they turn on TV news for the same reason the rest of us do.

They want to know what's going on, with no spin..

I wonder if CNN will report it. 50% of their coverage has been about the media, its suffering, its workings.

The former Iraqi dictatorship demanded that they leave. The citizens now demand that they leave. What exactly is their remaining demographic in Iraq anyway? ROFL.

I saw this and was overwhelmed with pride of the liberated Iraqi's. I started thinking, "What if the new Iraqi government decides not to do business with France, Russia, Germany, et. al.?" Those Iraqi's are smart people. Watch.

America is fulfilling it's destiny, George Walker Bush was the chosen one, and the hole has been punched in the dam. Democracy will flood that region and the world will finally realize what the United States stands for and means.

GOD BLESS THE U.S.!!!!
