by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor
Democracy Now pundit Amy Goodman reports on British intelligence documents that were leaked to the media and supposedly contain revealing information about the Bush administration's desire to bomb Al Jazeera.
The Arabic satellite network Al Jazeera continues to search for answers over reports President Bush wanted to bomb its headquarters in Doha.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------The Arabic satellite network Al Jazeera continues to search for answers over reports President Bush wanted to bomb its headquarters in Doha.
Last week the Daily Mirror cited a secret British memo revealing Bush told Tony Blair in April 2004 of his desire to bomb the news outlet.
He added that the network would consult lawyers to see what further action could be taken.
Meanwhile, the British government has banned the British media from disclosing the memo's contents.
This after the U.S. bombed Al Jazeera's bureaus in Afghanistan in November 2001 and Baghdad in April 2003.
But this claim was immediately put into question following reports Al Jazeera had given the US military its coordinates so as to avoid any accidental bombing.
This is Ibrahim Hilal, senior editor at Al Jazeera when the Kabul office was bombed by the U.S. Hilal was interviewed Democracy Now shortly afterwards.
The April 2003 bombing of the Al Jazeera bureau in Baghdad killed Al Jazeera correspondent Tariq Ayoub -- again after Al Jazeera had given the US military its coordinates in Baghdad.
