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

Posted on 09/16/2004 9:26:25 AM PDT by MartinRidley

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

Incidentally, Martin, I find it ironic this complaint comes from someone in a nation where sedition laws are still on the books and the government practices prior restraint.

Lemme guess, you were one of the useful idiots in England who attended the Islamofascist celebration of the 9-11 attacks.

Sorry Marty

I thought you already had a sign. Here is your own sign so you don't have to share with David

You might want to hold on to something.....

You joined FR just to post this?

How is posting this little rant on FR going to do anything for the cause you espouse?

Is DU getting that boring?

Take it up with the provisional government of Iraq, Marty. It's out of our hands.

By the way, I would have guessed you were a Guardian reader.

You signed up to post this drivel?

You really do need a hobby.

I suggest tearing the wings off of flys.

It is far more useful than this rubbish you posted.

Cheers,

You know, instead of posting the same tired zot pics for the umpteenth million time, I think it would be more effective to make these people actually support their little rants, and then tear them apart.

What, are we worried that they might make a point? Hardly. It's just unseemly to constantly trot out the same zot pics every time someone makes a stupid post.

Better to tear them limb from limb, rhetorically. Maybe it will actually learn them something.

Al Jazeera does not make the news it reports on it. If we want to talk about which religon has caused the most pain and suffering in the world in the last few hundred years its not Islam (I am not a believer of any religon). Christian civilisation was and continues to be intolerent look at the inquisition, holocaust, rawanda, bosnia.
