Al Jazeera (What is Arabic for meeeeeeoooooowwwwwwww?)
Author | 16_09-2004 | Martin Ridley

Its seems odd that country proclaiming a commitment to Freedom supports the closure of the only real free press in most of the middle east - Al Jazeera. Even Alister Campbell aplogist for the UK governement and a supporter of muting the TV station during the invasion of Iraq now agrees how important the station is to free speech.

So all of you neo-cons with your spin on Freedom for the Iraqi people how about letting them watch what ever TV station they wish to switch on. And let Al Jazeera report from Iraqi what has an emerging democracy ocuupied by freedom loving democracies got to fear from free sppech

"remember scripture"

How convenient for you to say considering you also said this:

"I dont pray to any god i dont believe in god."

So you'll use scripture when it suits you?
How about I use what the Quran says to suit my purposes?

How dare you I am Guardian, Channel 4 news, Radio 4 you'd hate - at least I hope you would.

Without Britian the Germans would have won, you as usal came in a bit later, although you were welcome and thank you. My parents always had good things to say about the Yanks and I have USa family so I do like America just not fond of the present administration

Dumb first post, MR. Al Jazerra is Muslim garbage fronting for subhuman Islamofascist terrorists, and you are soon to be ZOTTED®!

BTW, welcome to FR. Buh-bye...

That would work out pretty well for you. Since Marty has admitted to being an unbeliever, you'd be allowed to strike off his head and fingertips. :P

Always due process of law and the not the death penalty in any case (sorry guys)

Incidently I imagine most of the people you hold in Cuba are not terorists but people fighting on the wrong side or inocents set-up. You do realise the damage this is doing to the USA's reputation - Always everyone must have the right to a proper legal process

No, you have that backwards.
Without AMERICA you'd be Heil Hitler'ing to the Nazi's son right about now.
Britain didn't win the war on it's own, nor could it have.
You impugn the sacrifices of British and AMERICAN troops who fought and died for your snot-nosed pathetic childish rants about how you want to throw it all away.
Grow up.
The world is NOT all about you, europe, or what you want.
The world is about what IS.
And right now, the terrorists are getting their sand flea infested butts whupped.

Possible, but since they are classified "unlawful combatants" it's irrelevant.

You do realise the damage you are doing for your own reputation by rooting for the terrorists?
And, again, who cares what 'old europe' thinks?
They couldn't stand up to Hitler or Stalin, and whined to us when they needed defending.

Pogroms against Jews has gone on in european history for about 600 years, many jews left to live in the Ottoman empire were they were welcomed. The germans industrialised that process.

The bosnia statement is correct I suggest you research the issue, even a hatred of muslims shouldn't stop you from acepting the facts

Nice try, no sale. Amid all the bad punctuation and spelling in your posts (worse than anything I've ever seen posted by a real Brit before), I also find a number of Americanisms.

I think you're a wannabe who reads the Guardian.

To anser two questions.

The USA runs Iraq the interim goverment does nothing without oits say so

The 10K civilians is a matter of record killed in the war and after. It is a large number even against a population of 28m -
