[QUOTE="Jones, post: 82700, member: 4805"] Well, MemriTV certainly has an agenda in that they wish to influence policy against the Arab world by portraying most Arabs, and the Arab media, as western hating religious fanatics. But it's not like they have to make this stuff up either, it basically gets handed to them because there really [B]is[/B] so much religious fanaticism in the middle east and much of it [B]is[/B] directed against the west. What's more interesting to me is the fact that you can now see opposing views like the the clip Tony linked on major Arab news networks like Al-Jazeera, which is one of the benefits of having a free press over there now. Ten years ago, when essentially all Arab media was state controlled, that woman would never have been allowed to voice her opinion like that. [/QUOTE]
