Thanks. I was not aware that the Subject line was a translation. And in general I've learned on this list that one-line posts (Or One-Line Zingers as I've labelled them in the past) are in general not worth paying attention to. My post was simply asking for a direct statement of some sort from Joe himself. Neither a naked link nor an off-hand metaphor constitutes and invitation t or motive for conversation.

"Al Jazeera" is a family of "autonomous" companies broadcasting in various languages--under the patriarchal supervision of the Emir of Qatar. (In the current Yemen crisis Al Jazeera America is functioning as the house organ for the Saudi-sponsored massacre of Yemeni people).

The link is to an Arabic-language article. What Joe translated is more than enough, thank you.
