The system is a two party stable oligarchy anyway. We more or less publically fund parties in Europe. Why does the private sector, whether individuals or co-operating individuals have a right to fund/corrupt officials and influence policy?

Why shouldn't this break military plane GPS as much as anything else. It will also remove the ability of USAF to GPS target missiles onto US population centres, which they have no need to do anyway. They can still bomb the rest of the world

All undemocratic Arab governments fear Al Jazeera. ie all Arab governments and the US if they are US backed ones. with one exception. Al Jazeera obviously never digs into the affairs of the Qatari royal family.
