Jeg kan da anbefale France 24 som sender over DVB-T nettet i hovestadsområdet.

Iøvrigt er navnet Livestation, og det kan anbefales at downloade den. På den måde kan du se AlJazeerra Arabaic og English, BBC World Service og...France24direkte fra din desktop, og man må forundres over de meget skarpe digitale billeder, som er fuldt ligeså godt som Digitalt fjernsyn - hvad det jo også er.

Men ellers er den gode gamle frihedskæmper Robert Fisk som altid en fornøjelse at følge:

Hypocrisy is exposed by the wind of change

So when the Arabs cry out for the very future that Obama outlined, we show them disrespect.

by Robert Fisk

There is nothing like an Arab revolution to show up the hypocrisy of your friends. Especially if that revolution is one of civility and humanism and powered by an overwhelming demand for the kind of democracy that we enjoy in Europe and America. The pussyfooting nonsense uttered by Obama and La Clinton these past two weeks is only part of the problem. From "stability" to "perfect storm" – Gone With the Wind might have recommended itself to the State Department if they really must pilfer Hollywood for their failure to adopt moral values in the Middle East – we've ended up with the presidential "now-means-yesterday", and "orderly transition", which translates: no violence while ex-air force General Mubarak is put out to graze so that ex-intelligence General Suleiman can take over the regime on behalf of America and Israel.

Fox News has already told its viewers in America that the Muslim Brotherhood – about the "softest" of Islamist groups in the Middle East – is behind the brave men and women who have dared to resist the state security police, while the mass of French "intellectuals" (the quotation marks are essential for poseurs like Bernard-Henri Lévy have turned, in Le Monde's imperishable headline, into "the intelligentsia of silence".

So when the Arabs want dignity and self-respect, when they cry out for the very future which Obama outlined in his famous – now, I suppose, infamous – Cairo speech of June 2009, we show them disrespect and casuistry. Instead of welcoming democratic demands, we treat them as a disaster. It is an infinite relief to find serious American journalists like Roger Cohen going "behind the lines" on Tahrir Square to tell the unvarnished truth about this hypocrisy of ours. It is an unmitigated disgrace when their leaders speak. Macmillan threw aside colonial pretensions of African unpreparedness for democracy by talking of the "wind of change". Now the wind of change is blowing across the Arab world. And we turn our backs upon it. </cite>

Og her giver han idag den overraskende oplysning -- ikke rapporteret før i noget andet medie -- at de ægyptiske soldater fik ordre til at skyde i sidste uge, men rev deres inter-com hjelme af, tog deres mobiltelefoner og ringede til deres fædre om råd:

As Mubarak clings on... What now for Egypt?

The fury of a people whose hopes were raised and then dashed

by Robert Fisk

'

Many of the senior tank commanders could be seen tearing off their headsets – over which they had received the fatal orders – to use their mobile phones. They were, it now transpires, calling their own military families for advice. Fathers who had spent their lives serving the Egyptian army told their sons to disobey, that they must never kill their own people.
