Al Jazeera English’s senior political analyst is under fire for telling a prominent Jewish writer that he “gives Jews a bad name” and should know his place by showing “some Jewish humility.”
Marwan Bishara, Al Jazeera’s senior political analyst and host of its show Empire, made the comments on Twitter after Bloomberg columnist Jeffrey Goldberg complimented Al Jazeera.
Goldberg had tweeted a link to an article in the left-leaning Israeli publication Haaretz headlined, “Why all Jews are cowards,” with the commentary: “Haaretz publishes headlines that al Jazeera never would, in part because al Jazeera is often more sophisticated.”
This prompted Bishara to call Goldberg a “coward” and state, “You give jews a bad name. Shame on you.”
Bishara went on to criticize Goldberg as “a prison guard of the Israeli occupation” and instruct him to show “some Jewish humility.”
“Take it from someone more educated & better informed about the issues you write about,” Bishara wrote. “Some Jewish humility is good for you.”
Bishara’s comments were deemed by critics as an example of anti-Jewish invective and prompted Goldberg to wonder if Al Jazeera endorses Bishara’s comments.

How many Jews work for Al Jazeera?
Probably a lot at AJ America
Maybe he’s a Zionist.
Jews DO know their place. They’re God’s chosen people.....
Of course deep down, he thinks the Jews' place is in the ovens.
(and that isn't 조선 either)
In Israel.
A night visit from Mossad could turn Bishara’s hair ghostly white. He needs a humility lesson.
I watch Al Jazeera America on Verzion Fios 614
On that channel AJ America some Jews mostly Brits and OZ reporters
Thanks for letting me know. I'm glad to be wrong about that one.
Dunno. but they are idiots of the highest order. In another time they would be called kapos.
I do not understand why sane Jews do not publicly condemn them.
Next they’ll be calling the Jews “uppity”
I think maybe Al Jazeera English they do have a lot of Arabs expect that bias but Al Jazeera America totally different they do have English channel reporters there mostly US UK and Oz reporters now
What name does Marwan Bishara use when he posts on FR?
If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

This is a good thing. It breaks the last taboo. Now we can comfortably challenge radical Muslims with:
“You give Muslims a bad name. Shame on you.”
“Take it from someone more educated & better informed about the issues you write about, some Muslim humility is good for you.”
These are the kinds of conversations the Arab “Spring” is encouraging.
He might be right, look at what Jews have done for civilization and look at what Muslims have done. Wait a minute!
