Its seems odd that country proclaiming a commitment to Freedom supports the closure of the only real free press in most of the middle east - Al Jazeera. Even Alister Campbell aplogist for the UK governement and a supporter of muting the TV station during the invasion of Iraq now agrees how important the station is to free speech.
So all of you neo-cons with your spin on Freedom for the Iraqi people how about letting them watch what ever TV station they wish to switch on. And let Al Jazeera report from Iraqi what has an emerging democracy ocuupied by freedom loving democracies got to fear from free sppech

I think Martin isn't really gonna answer.
He's dodged direct questions before, choosing to 'answer' with non-answers.
We shall see though, we shall see.

Just out of curiosity, why is MartinRidley still breathing FR air?
Did MurryMom go on to her reward, leaving us without a token lefty?
Did you lose a bet with someone over at the Guardian?
What?

Using a crack pipe is no way to go through life son. I'm surprised you are still drawing breath on this site. You should call your buddy Dan Rather about why he's not showing what Al Jazeera shows: Terrorists killing innocent noncombatants. Learn how to spell at least, and spend your energy combating terrorism by enlisting in the Marines, go to Iraq, and make a difference. If you just want to whine then this ZOT is for you:

I just checked, and our token leftist still draws breath, but hasn't been active since at least Sept 3rd.

MurryMom and Alberta's Child are still here. I guess JimRob needs the token leftists to keep it interesting.

Martin,
I have been patient with you for several hours now and you still failed to respond.
Darksheare not that I ever doubted you, but you were right.
How disappointing.
Martin I gave you a fair argument and you failed to respond. Go take you rhetoric elsewhere.

If he does come back, it will be very late this eveningby our time, or very early tomorrow.
He seemed to be posting along the lines of an eastern europe time frame ala taotao/taftkald.

Some pieces of the puzzle...
taotao came from a university server in Europe somewhere, as did taftkald, and slogging through old zot threads I found this ancient troll named "Whyareyoudumbandhateful".
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1050693/posts?page=337#337
Admin Mod explains that he's froma university server.
He also spelled Cheney as Chaney, like a recent troll did.
(OLD troll thread from January mind you)
Taotao/taftkald is a megaretread, and MartinRiley here sounds and acts alot like taotao/taftkald.
Possibility they're the same guy?
