Did Blair Talk Bush Out of Bombing Al Jazeera?

MirrorUK: "A 'Top Secret' Number10 memo reveals that Bush planned to bomb Arab TV station al-Jazeera in friendly Qatar, but he was talked out of it at a WH summit by Tony Blair, who said it would cause worldwide backlash. On Monday, former Labour Def Min Peter Kilfoyle challenged Downing St to publish the 5pg transcript of the 2 leaders' conversation: "It's frightening to think that such a powerful man as Bush can propose such cavalier actions. I hope the Prime Minister insists this memo be published. It gives an insight into the mindset of those who were the architects of war." Bombing news stations in friendly nations? Oh that's right... Bush is just pissed that he can't buy off those reporters.
