I see alot of attention here...and going around in circles...
We don't really have to do that and our discussion will keep on and on without a conclusion...
I am not denying the importance of having free press while most of you got it wrong in thinking I condemn that. This is a problem.
additionally, who says that press or media in general is free in US or UK?
I agree that the president of United states or the prime minister of UK can been publicly criticised but that does not mean free press if they won't publish all points of view.
CNN and BBC for example are biased and directed in such a way to create a carefully designed outcome. There are efforts by the media in the west to control images depicted and to hide information critical to public that would make a big difference. You still think you have free press? I don't think so.
I believe some of the responses above pop up as a result of my critical view of the UK & US government. I am not sorry if they are criminal.
If you don't think this is relevant to this thread, then I respect your POV but I disagree. For reasons laid above, I see great relevance.
The DohaSteve first post is really a good hope for me and for sure I will read it over and over again.
South land, your problem is sticking to facts which may or may not be proven. Has not the US invaded Iraq based on facts which turned out to be pack of lies?
Why did the US deny Hamas as a government where the people chose it? is not that what democracy asks for? This shows US hypocrisy. Believe me, the last I would care about is being called a democratic nation based on US classification, If i cared at all.
