dlish...thanks. interesting....
i didn't go through al jaz for that clip.
i got to it either by way of the guardian----which likely posted the caveat along with it (so i overlooked it)----or through the "we are all khaled said" group on facebook, which has been posting a ton of video and other information from libya. the upside is that the information stream exists. the downside is that the sense of complication in terms of sourcing and interpretation are presented in 420 characters or less.
information is still fragmentary.
speaking of which there were lots of reports of checkpoints that folk trying to get out of libya passed through at which cellphone photographs/sim cards were being erased, video and computers with image of massacre etc. confiscated. information fragmentation is apparently gadhafi's friend.
on the other hand, information transparency is nowhere available.
