No wonder Angry Arab is angry: Donald Rumsfeld, not to be confused with Donald Duck, expressed anger at Arab satellite stations AlArabiya and Aljazeera because he said that they sometimes get advance notice of attacks on US troops. There is absolutely no evidence of that. And both indicated that they have never aired footage of attacks or bombings live in Iraq. Yet, they were singled out for criticisms (and both are funded by client governments of the US), and AlArabiya was banned by the US colonial administration in Iraq, and its puppet council. And yet I have not heard criticisms of the French sensational magazine ParisMatch (which combines politics and celebrity) which has put on its website video footage of the attempt to shoot down a DHL cargo plane in Iraq (a civilian target for sure). Notice that when the page comes (wait for a few seconds) the cover of the web site combines Michael Jackson's story with "Irak Exlusif".
