Aljazeera: Voice of NATO

Aljazeera was reporting on the NATO bombing of Libyan rebels.  They invited one of their correspondents in Libya to speak live on the matter. The guy, whose name escapes me, went on to justify the bombing and to say that there was an understanding that no guns would be fired when NATO forces are around, and he repeated the point by saying that a mistake was made, but not by NATO but by the rebels themselves.

PS And the other day, Aljazeera wanted an analysis of the Arab uprisings, so they invited Adm. Mike Mullen to speak about the Arab uprisings. Imagine if an Egyptian or Syrian general is invited by US TV news station to comment on the American youth and their aspirations.
