Yeah, they really aren't all that bad. I think they are definately biased against Israel, but its an arab news station, what would people expect it to be? Pro Israel like Fox News? lol. I watch both Fox news and I try to read as much Al-Jazeera as I can.

dude i was joking.fox news isnt pro israel its fair to israel (how many israeli's do you know are trying to destroy america Israelis have done some questionable things in the past...sometimes bordering on terrorism against america. Although states like Syria, Iran, Iraq, Aghanistan, or Libya are (or were) far worse. Fox News is OK...sometimes. They get on my nerves sometimes too though with dumb names they make up...like "HOMICIDE BOMBERS". Thats just gay. MSNBC and FOX are probably my favorite networks. I despise CNN and CBS.

Well Israel's Lavon Affair was always questionable as was the USS Liberty incident. Not to mention those 4 Israelis who were arrested right after they were caught taking photographs and laughing when they saw the towers fall on 9/11. As far as the Homocide bombers thing, why not just call them Suicide Bombers like everybody else does? I just think its silly how Fox invented a new term. And yes I agree many middle eastern countries are extremely dangerous, particularly Iran, and still somewhat Iraq.

lets do this with numbers. arab vs israel world terriorism arab countrys vs isreal go ahead you first Lets put it this way. Bad islamic countries. 1)Iran 2Iraq 3)Syria 4)Libya 5)Saudi Arabia 6)Yemen Good islamic countries. 1)Jordan 2)Lebanon 3)Egypt 4)Morocco 5)Tunisia 6)Turkey So as you can see, the middle east is approximately equally divided. Half bad. Half good.

Yes, it is interesting.
On the other hand though, I find it a little hard to believe that israeli intelligence guys would be as stupid to openly celebrate it and give each other hight fives.
The whole thing sounds hokey yet possible at the same time. One of the wierdest stories I ever heard of.
Its a fact that Arabs did 9/11 and not Israel, although some conspiracy theorists still insist otherwise.
But its up for debate whether Israel knew this was going to happen ahead of time.

Not to mention those 4 Israelis who were arrested right after they were caught taking photographs and laughing when they saw the towers fall on 9/11. Both affairs were super-shady. Trying to implicate Egyptians and the Egyptian gov't in attacks on Western interests conducted by Israeli agents is not something that should be just forgiven too easily. Imagine if Egypt or Iraq had sent spies into Israel to bomb American targets and pin it on the Israeli gov't . Both countries would be on the USA's shit list until today! FOX News is not a valid news source, it exaggerates everything. hahaha...I remember during Iraqi election day when it's correspondent tried to exaggerate "large turnouts" and "palpable excitement" when there were only TWO people casting their ballots in his voting booth place. I do admire FOX though because it covers stuff other news stations don't (Armanious murders) and it doesn't go to great lengths to be PC. CNN is a great station, why don't you like it? Although Al-Jazeera is somewhat anti-Israel, it does give Israeli politicans and diplomats hear time on its programs. It represents the views of the Arab population well. The US gov't is so hypocritical. It wants free media in the Arab world but when that finally happens it calls it a terrorist station because it broadcasts Bin Laden videos and works against America. Do all free stations have to be pro-American policy? That smacks of hypocrisy. Also, what's the different between Al-Jazeera broadcasting OBL tapes and Western channels showing HItlers speeches in WW2.

Also, what's the different between Al-Jazeera broadcasting OBL tapes and Western channels showing HItlers speeches in WW2. There is no difference. Thats why I say Al-Jazeera isn't all that bad. Its far better than the other tv stations over there like that Al-Manar one I think its called. Al Jazeera has to much of a bad reputation for no legitimate reason.
