the 6th of September saw Reporters sans frontieres issue a condemnation of the continuing ban by the Alawi government on Al Jazeera. The office has since been completely closed.

if you visit the RSF site you will read details of all journalists and media professionals who have been killed or arrested whilst fulfilling their obligation as professionals.

There isn't a website where you may learn of the women killed while working and fulfilling their obligation as professionals. But there are plenty of movies.

What at first seems to be completely unrelated afterwards seems to be have been linked all along if only by being another value in any assigned set.

Added to the conditions which according to "interim" media organisations now credited with reporting events within Iraq and other states of the region, in a factual and professional way, put to the French government for the release of the two journalists is adherence to Osama's Europe declaration.

It is quite odd, that aside from the doubts to it's veracity, Europe has all but forgotten the declaration made by the man who Bush failed to find, regarding the terms he would accept for "leaving us alone".

I don't think anyone should go blaming him at the moment for "not leaving us alone".
For I am still not convinced it is so simple to define what is meant by "us".

But many of us must admit, we have thought -

"why not just leave these people alone."

as ireland learns from The Independent.
the taoiseach has appealed for the release of a British subject who was kidnapped recently in Iraq.
Al Jazeera's offices in iraq were closed by the Alawi government, an event protested by the above organisation "reporters sans frontiers". The two french journalists story has been subject to a news "black out" by the French authorities but the interolocutors being used in that case proceeded from religious, and Baghdad community leaders and another pan arabic tv satelite channel.

The Taoiseach's message therefore will have been transmitted to the Qatar offices of Al J. (something not being mentioned by the irish press). Bertie regularly requests the release of all hostages, but generally in another "way".
