Axis of Evil Endorsement
Frontpage Magazine ^ | 10-22-04 | Ben Johnson

Osama bin Laden’s chosen media outlet, al-Jazeera – which regularly refers to suicide bombers as “martyrs” and may have direct ties to terrorism – now hopes to refer to John Kerry as “Mr. President.” The pro-terror Mideastern network referred to John Kerry as “a popular mainstream Democrat with liberal tendencies” and noted the junior senator from Massachusetts “has suggested Bush's handling of [Iraq] is ‘f****ed up.’” Although the National Journal named Kerry the Senate’s most liberal member, al-Jazeera claimed “Kerry is well placed politically between his party's radical left and arch conservatives.” (“Arch-conservative” Democrats?) After all, the Democratic Party gave al-Jazeera a skybox at its national convention this summer.

Couldn't we accidentally drop a JDAM on their facility in Qatar? I mean, accidents do happen all the time.

"Radio Free Middle East"?

There is a TV broadcast channel in the ME like the old Radio Free Europe. I just can't remember the agency's name.

We're changing Qatar from the inside out. I was deployed there back in the spring, and the nation is rapidly westernizing.

It is no coincidence that our closest Arab military ally (excluding Iraq) is also home to al-jazeera. Americans and westernizers can walk down the streets without any problems. The country is turning into a little Dubai. As we westernize their government, al-jazeera will grow more moderate.
