Sasa...
I believe he also said, “We don't have such political prisoners”...
we've been critisizing mainstream media in the US for ever, now that one of them has decided to pet a dictator, everyone suddenly forgot everything about professionalism...
This interview is a total mockery, if this was Oprah doing it, it'd be ok... but dont make a fool out of us, to tell us that, u cant challenge an assertion as provocative as “We don't have such political prisoners”, but u can ask whats on his damn iPod...
we'd be writing columns on how american journalism is such a fucking joke if this question was handed to Olmert... not that it's not being done everyday...
i donno, I personally felt insulted by every laughter in that interview, after i heard the “We don't have such political prisoners”.
he might as well have said "My father never killed anyone in Tadmur"!
