Let's see,they're smug, self important, have some rather strange ways & beating up on the less fortunate, yeah pretty much fits the bill so I suppose you could class them as that !

It's interesting, first Tunisia, now Egypt... I wonder if Algeria then Morocco will follow.
The feeling I got in Morocco, I was there last week, was not one of violence or overthrow. But it could always change.

I tried to get Aljazeera TV on freeview channel 89 but it showed 'closedown'.
I have found it on the web - a live broadcast
Al Jazeera English: Live Stream - Watch Now - Al Jazeera English

It is best to see more than the diluted versions that our media supplies.
Even on Aljazeera you have to wait for sports 'news' to end, but at least there is a 'stop press' news ribbon at the bottom of the screen.
(To me sports aren't news).

I do not form opinions - I just observe - more 'versions' available the better.
There are two sides to every argument - best to view both if you want to form an opinion.

The 'natives are restless' - 'trouble at t'mill' big style.
It seems that any dictator is under threat
