Marhaba

My message to Al-Jazeera, which recently started its long awaited English broadcast service is marhaba!

At last, a broadcaster not in the pocket of Zionists or other racist ideologues is able to cut through the fog of lies that befuddles the thinking of so many in the West. It’s just a shame that most of us won’t watch it. That’s OK though, if it continues to pull off coups like it did on Friday, because such items will make their way into other outlets and sooner or later, realising they’re falling behind, they too will have to tell the truth.

Staffed by respected journalists from around the world, I was delighted to hear Sir David Frost catch Tony Blair acknowledging that the intevention into Iraq was a disaster. I heard him say “it has” before rapidly trying to back-pedal and I knew that at last, there was tacit admission of what the world has been aware of for some time.

Al-Jazeera was recently voted the world’s 5th most influential brand. Western media outlets are jealous. If they could get their hands on real Al-Qaeda footage, they would use it. Al-Jazeera was able to broadcast from Afghanistan at a time when other stations did not have the facility.

What I like most about Al-Jazeera is that it doesn’t swing the other way. It restores balance without being some rabid voicebox for extremist Islam (expect this slur from a vile Zionist soon) – and believe me, there is room for that kind of station, but you will note that the majority of the biggest media outlets in the world are firmly behind the Zionaxis of America, Britain, Australia and Israel. Broadcasting their lies, propaZanda and the whitewash of cognitive dissonance to the sleeping hordes, they inform nobody and worse, they are responsible for many, many deaths. Had they served their purpose and reported reasonably accurately and in a balanced manner, it is doubtful that we would have gone to war, and even if by some accident we had, we would not have stayed there so long.

If every coffin of every American soldier that came back from Iraq had a solitary minute of unified airtime, how many minutes would the lazy, fat, self-indulgent, evil, murdering racists of America have tolerated before calling for an immediate exit?

In the meantime, Al-Jazeera also pushes Africa into the spotlight and I must admit to having been woken up to a lot of issues there too. Of course, Palestine is big news and it was heartening to see people power finally push back the lying racists of Israel from destroying more homes and killing more people:

From the Al-Jazeera English web site:

Hundreds of people surrounded the home of Weil Baroud, a commander of the Popular Resistance Committees in the northern town of Beit Lahiya, after he was told by the Israeli army late on Saturday that the building was going to be bombed. He was given 30 minutes to leave.

I cheered when I heard this. Human beings offering up their bodies to protect a building. Not an attack, but a building. A home. A true human shield. This term has become negative, but only if you let it. I want you to picture that your country has been occupied by illegal settlers and you are being daily humiliated and your coutnrymen killed, held for decades in torture camps, discriminated against, and you have just heard that the occupier is going to bomb your home with an F-!6. Can you imagine the balls it would take to stand there with dozens of your countrymen, knowing full well that the occupier has never had any compunction about killing civilians in this number before and will likely do so again? Can you imagine standing on the roof of your home in the face of an F-16?

Of course, the Israelis came out with their standard lie, which you have to be seriously deranged to believe now:

“The attack plan was cancelled because of the people there. We differentiate between innocent people and terrorists,” he said.

Which is why in the last six months, Qassam missiles fired from Gaza have killed precisely one person in Israel. In the same period, over THREE HUNDRED people in Gaza have been murdered by the Israelis, most of them civilians, many were women and children.

You don’t see the bodies of Palestinian babies killed by Israelis on the TV. You probably wouldn’t believe the Israeli apologists’ slimey, evil, lying faces if you did. Everybody is scared of their lobbies and their constant attempts to taint people with the sacred brush of “anti-semitism”. That’s why people talk of an illegal occupation and apartheid as if it were some balanced “conflict” – you have to be hugely disinformed, or evil to believe in such things. I sincerely hope it’s the former. I do believe that we are often faced with a worst case scenario, which is that many of the people defending Israel are both uninformed andevil. That’s the nature of evil, it abhors truth.

It is no such thing. It is a Holocaust that the world has been denying since 1948. Those who continue to deny it are indeed, holocaust-deniers. I don’t call for their imprisonment though, I’m no Zionazi. I do call for the deniers to inform themselves, and to awaken from their foggy sleep of cognitive dissonance.
