Attacks on Al-Arabiyyah reporters

You may wonder about the attacks today and yesterday on Al-Arabiyyah reporters in Egypt.  That should not be surprising: 1) while the station of King Fahd's brother-in-law has been very pro-Mubarak and sympathetic to the goons, yesterday the scenes were too clear and blatant to try to spin them so the reporters had to report on the criminal elements of the regime and their crimes; 2) the attacks by Mubarak armed goons against reporters seem to indiscriminate and target all journalists who are perceived as enemies.
