In France, the country's Higher Audiovisual Council (CSA) summoned Michael Kik, the Al Jazeera representative in Paris, to defend the decision to broadcast the Iraqi pictures of dead and captured American servicemen. Kik argued that the criticism smacked of double standards, saying "For 10 years, pictures of Palestinian prisoners have been shown all over the world, and in the Gulf everyone has been watching images of Iraqi prisoners kneeling in humiliation," in reference to recent controversy over Al Jazeera's coverage of the war. ...

- HAVEZ AL-MIRAZI: There was government at that time that took the wrong approach. The wrong approach in trying to pressure Al Jazerra.
- PORTER: Based in the Gulf state of Qatar, Al Jazerra TV has gained fame in the United States for providing statements from Osama bin Laden and Al Qaeda. ...

- SMELZER: Over the years Al Jazerra has explored such controversial topics as women’s rights under Islam, the lack of democracy in Arab countries, and the Israeli-Palestinian peace process.

- SMELZER: Just like at Al Jazerra headquarters in Qatar, the 10-to-12 member staff here in Washington is a multicultural bunch, including Egyptians, Palestinians, Iraqis, and even Europeans and Indians.

7. OpinionJournal - John Fund on the Trail
- www.opinionjournal.com
- Al-Jazeera earned the nickname "the CNN of the Arab world" by broadcasting tapes of Osama bin Laden after the World Trade Center bombing. ... Files recovered from Iraq's intelligence service show that al-Jazeera was infiltrated by Iraqi agents. Days after the latest allegations surfaced, al-Jazeera's director general was fired--although ostensibly for reasons other than his unusual contacts with Saddam's agents. ...
- Al-Jazeera had substantial promise; the emir of Qatar, who gave the station $150 million in seed money in 1996, apparently meant it when he said he wouldn't interfere in its broadcasts. He may now regret his hands-off approach as evidence mounts that al-Jazeera's anti-Western tilt may have stemmed from more than just ideological opposition to U. ...
- It's not a big leap, then, to believe that Saddam tried to corrupt employees of al-Jazeera. ... The Times has files, recovered from Iraqi archives and authenticated by experts on Iraqi intelligence, that show that the Iraqi agents worked inside al-Jazeera to obtain favorable coverage of the regime and spiked negative stories. ...
- Iraqi officials refer to al-Jazeera in their memos as "an instrument employed by us. " Al-Jazeera says that such charges are preposterous, although it acknowledges that the man known as Jazeera 2 was "terminated some time ago. ...
- The most important name to surface in the Iraqi intelligence files was that of Mohammed Jasim Al-Ali, who served as the network's managing director from its founding in 1996 until his firing last week. ...
- Al-Jazeera insists that Mr. ... Jihad Ballout, an al-Jazeera spokesman. says "these rumors and allegations about al-Jazeera are not taken at face value. ... Jasim retains a seat on al-Jazeera's board of directors and claims that he simply left because he always planned to return to his post at Qatari television.
- Ibrahim Hilal, the editor in chief of al-Jazeera, told Channel 4 News in Britain that he didn't believe Iraqi agents had worked at his network, but he added that "you can never guarantee that any person working in a newsroom cannot be an intelligence agent. ...
- Perhaps, but the burden is on with al-Jazeera to clean up its act. Only last month it aired a tape it said was from Ayman al-Zawahiri, Osama bin Laden's deputy, who called on Muslims to engage in terrorism against Jews, Americans and their allies. Al-Jazeera aired the tape--giving whoever who made the tape a platform to stir up hatred--instead of having a reporter paraphrase its content.

21. portland imc - 2003.08.29 - Bush/Saudi Connection
- portland.indymedia.org
- com? Well, here’s a quote from today’s conversation: "Our President said in his speech in March that when we go into Iraq, we are going there because Saddam Hussein has harbored, trained and funded terrorists, including those connected to al-Qaeda. If we are going to attack a nation and occupy it because of a connection to al-Qaeda, which never appeared, then what are we doing with Saudi Arabia? They are effectively occupying us financially. ... " -- Greg Palast Greg doesn't pull any punches! Well, it’s become a topic of increasing speculation: Is the Bush Cartel war on Iraq a diversion from having the American press and people demand answers about the Saudi financial support of al-Qaeda – and the fact that 15 of the 19 hijackers on September 11th were Saudis, as well as bin Laden? Do the 28 Bush administration censored pages from the Congressional 9/11 report reveal a much broader Saudi royal family involvement in financing charities linked to terrorist groups? Why have so many connections between the Saudi family and terrorists – as well as the large number of Saudis in leadership position in terrorist groups been swept under the rug by the Bush administration? All good questions indeed. ... That is, I’ve only put out the reports of the Saudi connection to al-Qaeda at the top of the BBC Nightly News, going out worldwide. ... The BBC has learned that one of their operatives was the conduit from delivering Osama bin Laden’s Valentine tapes to Al Jazerra TV. ... It turns out that in 1999 and 2000, Bill Clinton sent two delegations to Saudi Arabia -- this I just reported on BBC -- quietly saying: Here’s a list of royal family members and others around the royals who are giving money to al-Qaeda fronts and people who are trying to kill us. ... disbands the intelligence unit tracking the Saudi money connection to al-Qaeda. And third, and ugliest, is that Bush –- in particular, his ambassador Barbie Bodine -– pulled the visas of the FBI al-Qaeda investigation team in Yemen, so they’d have to go home. I mean, our own embassy pulled the visas of our own FBI investigators, headed by agent John O’Neill, who was in charge of al-Qaeda prosecutions for the Justice Department. ... One thing I mentioned in the book I’ve learned more about since: In the title chapter of "Best Democracy Money Can Buy," I mention that there’s a meeting in Paris between Saudi billionaires, big-shot international arms dealers, and the al-Qaeda financial arm. ... In this meeting, the Saudis agreed to basically pay off al-Qaeda.

- In the past, the US has accused al-Jazeera of being a mouthpiece for al-Qaeda propaganda. ...
- What do you think of the message? Should Muslims feel solidarity with Iraq? Was al-Jazeera right to broadcast the tape? .
- Al-Qaeda would welcome a war in the region, as instability would help them to stir up trouble for America's allies.
- In the Bin Laden tape it is quite clear that al-Qaeda regard Saddam Hussein with contempt, as an "infidel" and leader of a non-fundamentalist "socialist" Arab state. ... I suspect that al-Qaeda would welcome a war in the region, as instability would help them to stir up trouble for America's allies in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and the other Gulf States. ...

- Well, it would be more convincing, were it not for the fact that Colin Powell said he had read a transcript of it from Al-Jazeera, whereupon Al-Jazeera said they didn't even have the tape at that point. ...
- Al-Jazeera has lost all credibility as a "news source".
- Al-Jazeera has lost all credibility as a "news source". ...
- This Al-Qaeda bravado is a pure facade. ...
- The US case for invasion of Iraq is running into the ground - this tape attempts to focus the question back onto al Qaeda, who have been almost forgotten in the last few months.
