Al-Jazeera seeks ‘US bomb’ talks

`A senior al-Jazeera executive is in the UK to demand publication of a memo in which George Bush allegedly discusses bombing the TV station’s HQ.

Wadah Khanfar, al-Jazeera’s director general, is hoping to meet UK government officials to press its case. [..]

Mr Khanfar told La Stampa: “We want to know whether Bush really did want to attack al-Jazeera last year and was dissuaded from doing so by the British prime minister, as the British press has claimed.

“We will be silent only when we get the truth.”‘
