Inventing news on Al-Arabiyya TV
Yesterday, the news station of King Fahd's brother-in-law, Al-Arabiyya, aired a "video" which showed thugs of the regime beating demonstrators. It claimed that they were Hizbullah fighters. But it produced evidence: the thugs in the video were carrying small Hizbullah flags. I swear I am not making this up. I mean, you have to believe that the criminal Syrian regime which has a history of excellence in repression and torture, requires the import of Hizbullah fighters into Syria. And according to this report on Al-Arabiyya, the Hizbullah fighters came with their Hizbullah flags for the world to see. Tomorrow, Al-Arabiyya TV will show Iranian fighters beating Syrian protesters. The evidence? They were yelling at them in Persian.
