Because we're so ecumenical, doncha know

The timing of al-Jazeera's launch of its US network is rather exquisite, is it not?  It comes just as the Arab world turns against the pro-Muslim Brotherhood country that owns al-Jazeera, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia says it is taking note of who is supporting Egypt's military and who is supporting the Muslim Brotherhood.

Talk about a tinder box.

Meanwhile, we tacitly endorse the position of the one country in the middle east that the rest of the region is none too pleased with.   As if we need to be the object of any more raw feelings.
