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

I suspect he is taotao/taftkald back from his 'going for a degree' and 'excessive flatuations' for the EU.

Is English your second or third language?

You're a piss-poor writer and your spelling and grammar is worse than the average public school graduate.

Ah, I see. So the fact that it was the so-called nations of Christendom that put an end to the Nazis doesn't matter. What matters is that some Germans happen to have been Lutherans, and therefore the Holocaust is the fault of Christianity.

Talk about your convoluted logic.

Oh, and it's your assertion that 95% of those killed in Bosnia were killed by Christians - therefore, the burden is on you to provide evidence to back your claim.

Yes, he is taotao/taftkald.
He's repeating the lie of 10,000 civilians killed in Iraq without showing any proof yet again.
He's been asked at least three times to cite sources and has not.

The United States does not run the Iraqi government.

The fact that 10,000 civilians are dead does not establish that it was Alliance forces who killed them.

You're not very good at this whole thinking thing, are you?

Have you seen taotao/taftkald/martinridley's punctuation/slaughtering of the language?
Or are you just being a grammar pogey of whomever you feel like?

We will send CBS over to the middle east to represent the needs of the Islamofascist/kazis/dumbos. Blather will be thrown in for free.

LIAR.
It's spelled l-i-a-r.
And why?
Well, you state inaccuracies, claim 10k dead civilians in Iraq and never once cite sources or proof, and you conveniently forget historical facts.
And then whine about people being mean-spirited to you.

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 -

Are you going to discuss the hundreds of thousands that the Saddam regime butchered? Or is that inconsequential?

I'd like to know WHOSE record he's citing.
Let alone the massive hundreds of thousands that Saddam murdered.
He also forgets that Communism and socialism have killed at least 10 million people so far and that's even UNDERestimating the number..
Shall we repeatedly ask him what his sources are?
I'm thinking it's as reliable as Dan Rather..

Are you talking about FOXNews in Khanukistan being banned? (that's Canada for the less sophisticated!) What are you lefty's so spooked about?

Oh you mean Al Jazeera?

The pan-arabist anti-semite, pro-saddaam network owned by none other than some prince that gives it a license as long as it doesn't bash his kingdom?

Get lost A$$hole, don't try to peddle your left-wing "I hate america and support all those that hate her her" crap.

Ok got to go thank you all for your time.

I hope i am allowed to debate another topic soon with you.

I will use the spell checker next time seems to upset people more than the ideas.

I live in London and wish you all the best.

Bye Martin xx

Yeah, how old did he claim to be last time?
First he was 22 and going for his degree, and then he was 30 and already had it all within the space of fifteen posts?

He's getting somewhat more intelligent, evolution in action.
We crush and zot him once, and he learns from it.
Something like teaching a mouse to run a maze, eh?

There is nothing "Free" about any medium, private or state-controlled that would routinely and in inflammatory language report any retribution to muslims, while never mentioning or showing the atrocities that those same "peaceloving muslims" commit (body parts, destroyed buildings, bodies of children...)

There is truly "free" medium and then there is the other kind. For reference, I consider neither the SeeBS network nor the New York Times "free".
