This is especially the case when we see Al-Jazeera television, on which many of us have relied for some kind of a balanced and objective view, being attacked by both sides. Two of Al-Jazeera's reporters have been kicked out of Baghdad and the service has now withdrawn from the city. The Sheraton Hotel in Basra has been targeted by the United States with missiles because there are satellite dishes there. That is disgraceful and we should maintain a sense of proportion in that regard.
