Is this another victory for Al-Jazeera, that they would be blocked by none other than the Saudis? Although Al-Jazeera was not blocked by the US, the news group saw no point in remaining active in the US. They withdrew from the US some months ago. Thus, Saudi Arabia once again joins with our nation in the character of our news coverage.
Al-Jazeera must really run good stuff if the Saudis block it.
And the Al-Jazeera journalist, Mahmoud Hussein, has been held by Egypt for almost six months.
What’s the story behind these stories? Are we hearing more echos of the Sunni-Shia conflict? Or is it simply a restriction of information flow?
