#1 very interesting. And particularly from Memri, which some accuse of trying to show the arab world in a bad light, and here show voices of sanity.

#3 The seeds of democracy are spouting, interest is growing, and finally even hear Muslims denouncing terrorism extremism in various countries, better late than never!

#5 Looks like a few journalists are going on the Headless Hunt soon, I'm afraid. I don't think the Arab governments will stand for voices of reason.

#6 Notice all the comments come from journos working outside Araby. What does that tell you? And I bet at least half of the US/Europe-based Arab journos hold non-Arab passports. Out of necessity.

#7 The Bush stategery is working. BTW: the Al Jizz commentary wasn't certainly not from outside the region and the comments from the Al-Arabiya TV bigwig were great.

The word will get out. How come the Iraqis and Palestinians can have free elections and we can't?
