Some of us were so innocent as to suppose that the Pentagon had a well-thought-out plan for the removal of the dictator and the introduction of peace...

Some of us thought it was about ensuring that chemical weapons could never again be used on Iraqi soil...

Some of us thought it was all about the dissemination of the institutions of a civil society...

To be fair to the Americans, we must also accept that they had good grounds for resenting al-Jazeera. The station is hugely respected in the Arab world, has about 35 million viewers, and yet it gives what can only be described as a thoroughly Arab perspective of current affairs as opposed to the fair and balanced fox news. It assists in the glorification of suicide bombers when it should be glorifying pre-emptive war; it publishes the rambling tapes of Bin Laden and others among the world's leading creeps and whackos so it should be right at home airing the dribble of george bush; it is overwhelmingly hostile to America and sceptical about the neo-con project of imposing western values and political systems in the Middle East - a project only the truly delusional actually believe in.

And yet however wrong you may think al-Jazeera is in its slant and its views, you must accept that what it is providing is recognisably journalism - shame the same can't be said for mainstream UK media. It is not always helpful to the American cause in Iraq because it's a news broadcaster not a propaganda mouthpiece, but then nor is the BBC except when it is, which is most of the time.
