Somehow, Al-Jazeera and civil liberties don't match,but to each its own.

Not when the US keep bombing them:

War .... children ..... it's just a shot away

Al Jazeera is just a tv station, they're not terrorists or war mongers.

Al-Jazeerah and Civil Liberties???????????????????????????????? Are you kidding me???????????

Networks such as Al Jazeera promote freedom of speech and freedom of the press worldwide. Ironically, the US is one of several countries that has censored Al-Jazeera

the only reason she is remotely famous is because of mick so who cares

I would rather live in the US than in the Emirates.

Really?

It's awfull what happened on 9-11,don't misunderstand me.The criminals killed them selves,and took thousands of innocent people with them.
We all wanna drive big cars,a large army, thus need oil.So it's all about power and oil in the mid-east.
To get controll in that area, we need an enemy.
It's called terrorism, existing as long as we can go back in history.What goes around comes around.
Simple and painfull as that.

with the exception that I myself don't wanna big car. Its better to look at the world thru eyes that focus on human nature and recognize the defective species we are rather then to subscribe and champion some ideology and religion just because you were born in a certain place.

No,they're just Osama Bin Laden's mouthpiece that's all. They're about as fair and balanced as Fox News.

Good one scl,and of course you are right.Its funny, some people will criticize Fox but give Al-Jazeera TV a free pass.Give me a break.

Arguments like this always make me curious...You seem to say you believe Al-Jazeera is biased, and so you believe Fox is correct to be biased? But I must ask, if you believe Al-Jazeera are biased and therefore unreliable- what does that say about Fox news? Your argument condemns them both.

Exactly. They are both hate mongering organizations.

No TV network creates hate more than MSNBC

Just to clarify my post,BOTH are biased.But its funny as to how some people will attack Fox,and pretend when it comes to Al-Jazeera that this tv station is some kind of liberal bastion,that is fair when covering world events.Total BS.

"No dope smoking no beer sold after 12 o'clock"

I understand now the point you are making, thank you both ROPENI and sweetcharmedlife for clarifying. I know what you mean by your argument, and in one sense I agree with it... And in my opinion Al Jazeera has made some disgusting propaganda... However, I also support freedom of speech. All of this is a hard issue. Too much pain on both sides of the issue, and that is incredibly dangerous... But I agree strongest with Amsterdamned, he is wise to question the bigger picture and especially ask "Who makes the money from all this?". Most times the money trail will tell us.

I am still wondering how this "TV station" could signed with an American cable TV company since the English version launched in the fall of 2006.
