It is frustrating how there is sometimes little understanding or ignorance of the US in Arab media despite the over-coverage of the US. The other day, there was a lengthy interview on New TV with the kook Lyndon H. LaRouche. I hear that many Arab governments subscribe to his publications, and Saddam's regime, I heard, thought highly of him. They probably liked his theory that Kissinger and the Queen of England were behind the drug trade in the world. But this interview was less painful than the interview with David Duke that aired on Al-Jazeera 2 years ago.
