Al-Jazeera suspends correspondents' work in Iraq
Topic: War on Terrorism 11:21 am EST, Apr  3, 2003

] "The decision also included that Tayseer Allouni should
] leave Iraq as soon as possible. The ministry did not
] provide any reasons for that decision. Al-Jazeera network
] is sorry for this unpredictable and unreasonable decision
] by the ministry," the statement continued.
]
] "Therefore, the network decided to freeze, until further
] notice, the work of all of its correspondents in Iraq.
] However, it will continue to air live and recorded images
] provided by its offices from Baghdad, Basra, and Mosul."

I saw another headline yesterday that Iraq is trying to ban all satellite phones, too:

Iraq Bans Satellite Phones:

So, given time, they'll probably try to take down the cameras of Al Jazeera and Abu Dhabi TV as well. Those pesky images just keep directly contradicting the messages of the Iraqi Information Minister. Must be a conspiracy. ;)
