4. Al-Jazeera instigatin
Bruria   (01.02.10)
while this report is laughable, I am more concerned that directly underneath it is a large ad and lint to the Palestinain Holocaust museum!! I would expect to see this in Al-Jazeera, but from YNet?? How dare you--do you have any idea what the Holocaust was? Obviously not. I suggest you change you name and stop trying to fool people that this is an Israeli media source. Now I must go and be sick.
5. ronen, obviously you've never seen Al Jazeera eng...
BBSNews ,   Charlotte, NC   (01.02.10)
...without a doubt the channel has some of the best and well-balanced world coverage of any other sat TV station. They cover more conflict areas than anyone, including tons of footage from Iran that the world only sees because of Al Jazeera. Their coverage of the War on Gaza was phenomenal, and I notice that Ayman Moyeldin, the star male reporter from the Gaza war looks quite comfortable in Jerusalem today. Millions of us watched and cringed as the IAF strafed the journalists building. They did a yeoman's job at showing the world what Israel dearly wanted to hide. Egypt is no exception. Al Jazeera has never "attacked" Israel, that's simply a lie. They have simply reported the facts.
6. I thing a network that has been denounced by...
Persian CAT   (01.02.10)
The Saudi chieftains, the Iranian regime, the Egyptian regime, the Israelis and Donald Rumsfeld must be doing something RIGHT.
7. Egyptian regime is like a mouse
Ahmad ,   Gaza   (01.02.10)
Egyptian regime is like a mouse roaring, which does not mean it becomes a lion, once a rat always a rat. Those fat rats who are robbing the egyptian people since for decades are trying everything under the sun to maintain the status quo and pass on the monarchy to mubarak junior so that they continue robbing .. Gaza will stay and you will be long gone.
8. Typical Arabs - always blame the Jew next door
William ,   Israel   (01.03.10)
My my...what did Arabs do when Israel wasn't there for them to blame. The wife beating was always there, the rich/poor divide was there...was it the Shia boogieman, was it the infidel hiding behind the rock, or just Allah telling you he hates you...in his special way?? Let's face the truth - the Sunni/Shia divide is alive and well, with Qatar being Shia and the Egypt being Sunni, and Hamas being Shia-supported. The argument is more deep than some metal barrier and Israel, it's about who is the real voice in Islam, and for a while, it was Egypt with its large scholar base, and Sunni Saudi Arabia.
9. #5 - "I is a diplomat, I has me a satellite dish"
William ,   Israel   (01.03.10)
Do you get Al-Manar on that thing, too buddy? With your dish, I'm sure you were able to pick up RAI out of Italy that made a good report on the real number of Gazans killed, and the majority being Hamas terrorists> Oh wait - Al Jazeera didn't cover it so it must not have happened. Well - for the myopic like yourself, Al Jazeera DOES make an effort to lambast Israel and its leaders. They refer to ALL of the IDF (in Israel and WB) as "Israel Occupation Forces". They invite Israeli leaders to speak, only to cut them off with damning diatribes and ending the interview before Israelis can respond the accusation. Al Jazeera's coverage of Gaza was good (despite not being inside of Gaza). Did they show the terrorists using civilian areas, mosques to fire weapons? Did they speak to the families whom Hamas forced inside booby trapped homes? Did they interview Haniyeh and ask him why he hid in a hospital, stole ambulances, and sells humanitarian aid to Gazans? Did Al Jazeera cover S. Lebanon and film Hizbullah terrorists turning back a long line of civilians trying to drive out of the war zone? No they didn't. Why not? Couldn't be for the lack of video - there is a mountain evidence and Press Packages available for all.
10. Threat?
Tom Baxter ,   Tallahassee USA   (01.03.10)
What threat do the Palestian people in Gaza present to Egypt?
11. # 7 Ahmad in Gaza
Sam ,   La Quinta, CA-USA   (01.03.10)
What you state is true for the entire Arab Regimes worldwide. Actually its true for the entire Muslim Countries worldwide? All their leaders are just plain fat rats who are robbing their bretherns blind.
12. BS, Al Jazeera English is Al Takyia BS for infidels like you
Genuine Tosefta ,   Tveria   (01.03.10)
try them in Arabic to fully enjoy their Islamic "professionalism"
13. AJ's motto: All the lies and fabrications fit to report.
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (01.03.10)
14. to #5
susan ,   Kfar Saba   (01.03.10)
Charlotte, think aout who owns Al Jazerra. The Emir of Qatar who is alied with Iran. During the Gaza war I watched AJ for the action, that was all. Don't even egin to believe that they are balanced.
15. #7 Ahmad, you have your own rat pack
Cynthia ,   USA   (01.03.10)
And they're robbing the people. Your unemployment rate of 45% is one of the highest in the world yet your leadership jetsets all over after creating a mess in Gaza.
16. William, again you expose yourself as very ignorant...
BBSNews ,   Charlotte, NC   (01.03.10)
...Ayman Moyeldin and Sherine Tadros reported live from Gaza the ENTIRE time. Millions watched it "buddy" - you ain't no "buddy" of mine, and you ain't no "buddy" of Israel when you lie like this. And the Goldstone Mission found quite the opposite of all your outlandish claims. Sure I know you and the wingnuts dismiss it. But the people with the real power do not. And funny that you should bring up Al Jazeera English's coverage of the Second Lebanon War, that Israel lost, (see the Winograd Report). Just like 9/11 was the beginning of the end for militant Islam, so too was the Second Lebanon War the beginning of the end for militant Zionism. It was a seemingly newly revealed revelation of Israel's true intentions to the world. Theodor Herzl's original visions has been perverted for far too long already...
17. Genuine Tosefta, what makes you thing I haven't?
BBSNews ,   Charlotte, NC   (01.03.10)
After all these years, seriously, you should know better. I prefer the real Tosefta, the one who tells the facts. Always with the double-talk. As I wrote, Al Jazeera English is one of the finest world sat news stations in the entire constellation. It is first class commercial free coverage of the world's most intractable conflicts. Chief among them, the Israeli-Arab Conflict. The number one cause for terror recruitment worldwide.
18. ..because you have no idea what they say in Arabic broadcast
Genuine Tosefta ,   Tveria   (01.03.10)
keep pretending but you are exposed for all to see the fool and liar you are try Wafa Sultan for starters and come back to make a summary of her comments in Arabic on Al Jazeera
19. #15
Ahmad ,   Gaza   (01.03.10)
My leaders are fighting for their own people's freedom. Our PM lives in a refugee camp, where does the egyptian president (and your president for that matter) live? Don't lecrture us about who should lead us, lecture yourself about the hatred you have for us and our own existance from your comfortable chair in the US! You should be ashamed of yourself
20. #19 Fighting for your freedom, really?
Cynthia ,   USA   (01.03.10)
Then that would make Haniyeh a highly paid resident of a refugee camp. Directing Palestinians to terrorize Israel obviously hasn't brought you freedom, independence, stability, security or improved living conditions. It has only made your situation worse. Your leadership spends a fortune to fund terror while Palestinians live in refugee camps, claim poverty and unemployment as their reality. That's shameful.
21. Genuine Tosefta, wrong again. White Phosphorous...
BBSNews ,   Charlotte, NC   (01.03.10)
...right now there are kids who are still uncovering it and it of course immediately ignites. There's simply no hiding it anymore. Plus, I see how they mention your screen name as the infiltrator you are. They seem to be quite proud how you have fooled some Israelis and their "supporters" that you are actually on their side. But we know better don't we GT? You have nothing but evil intent for Israel, while myself and others are trying to save the little rogue state from being driven into the sea by you and yours.
