2. Quote From Al-Jazeera Corespondant...
Q: Whose side is Al-Jazeera on?

Al-Mirazi: The sad thing for me is that some of the American networks behaved in similar ways as government-controlled stations in the Arab world before 9/11. They used to call us the Israeli-U.S.-backed network. We were suspected of trying to divide the Arab world. The Americans were so positive about us before 9/11, but afterward, when we gave both sides, they behaved the same way that other government-controlled media in the Arab world did to us.


The sad thing for ME is how the question was framed. Nice answer, tho.
