Aljazeera: on Jordan

In reporting (delicately and timidly) about Jordanian protests today, Aljazeera said:  "what demonstrators refer to as repression".  That is the old Aljazeera's standards.  They now apply only to the monarchies that are aligned with the GCC.  On Syria, they network uses inflammatory language that it never dared to use against Israeli war crimes.  I say: use inflammatory language if you want, but use against all the criminal regimes of the Arab world.
