------------------
Ed, if we had a satellite dish, Dish Network would provide us with Al
Jazeera, but it would part of the "Arabic Elite" package (all or
nuttin', honey) and the subscription would have been more than $600
for the year! The other Arabic channels in the package would have
been pretty much useless. One of the channels would have really
cheesy movies, black and white, looking every bit like The Three
Stooges or Dean Martin/Jerry Lewis. Not dubbed - actors speaking
Arabic. Very Hollywood, though, and not that useful. One more would
be music only, no video. I would be considering not paying that much
again for a year of Al Jazeera.
I am not permitted to have such a dish, you see. So the one that's
there is kind of contrary-to-fact, hence the use of subjunctive.
