• Arabs against al-jazeera

  2007-12-16 18:13:00

  Arabs in Europe have launched a public campaign to stop Al-Jazeera TV broadcasts in Europe. In a petition, they accuse the channel of fostering extremism among European Arab youth and of supporting terrorism. While the petition's initiators have not provided their names, it seems likely that they are Iraqi expatriates; although various Arab news websites, such as Elaph, have reported on the campaign, the petition itself has been posted primarily on Iraqi websites. These sites include the Iraqi news site Sotaliraq; the Iraq of Tomorrow news site; the Al-Najaf News site; the website of Al-Fayhaa TV, a liberal Iraqi station; the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan website;Bahzani, a news and opinion website focusing on the Yazidi community and other Iraqi minorities; the Yezidi Community website; the website of the Gilgamish Center for Kurdish Studies and Research; and the Kurdistan Times e-journal.

• Edwards Assails U.S. Arms Sales to Arabs

  2007-08-01 05:06:18

  WASHINGTON (AP) - Democrat John Edwards said the Bush administration’s plan to sell $20 billion worth of weapons to friendly Arab states amounted to a foreign policy of convenience and he will take a tougher stance with Saudi Arabia if elected president. Edwards said the United States should require the Saudi government to shut down the movement of terrorists across its borders, help stabilize the Iraqi government and participate more seriously in regional security before they are offered weapons. “Whether it’s Iraq or terrorism, the Saudis have fallen way short of what they need to be doing,” the 2004 vice presidential nominee told The Associated Press in a telephone interview. “And the Bush administration’s response is to sell them $20 billion worth of arms, which is short-term and convenient and not what the United States should be doing.” Edwards is the first Democratic presidential candidate to speak out against the deal. Defense Secretary Robert Gates and Secretary
• Demon in the Box: Jews, Arabs, Politics, and Culture in the Making of Israeli Television

  Author: Tasha G. OrenPaperback: 220 pagesPublisher: Rutgers University Press (July 2004)Language: EnglishISBN: 0813534194What does a country’s television programming say about its deep character, beliefs, dreams, and fears? In Demon in the Box, Tasha G. Oren recounts the volatile history of Israeli television and thereby reveals the history of the nation itself. Initially rejected as a corrupting influence on "the people of the book," television became the object of fantasies and anxieties that went to the heart of Israel’s most pressing concerns: Arab-Israeli relations, immigration, and the forging of a modern Israeli culture. Television broadcasting was aimed toward external relations—the flow of messages across borders, Arab-Israeli conflict, and the shaping of public opinion worldwide—as much as it was toward internal needs and interests. Through archival research and analysis of public scandals and early programs, Oren traces Israeli television’s tr

  Arabs massacre Arabs -- so you knew it had to be the fault of the Jews!Post lifted from Taranto. See the original for linksThe Boston Globe editorial board looks at the Gaza civil war, and finds it's the fault of the Jews:The people of Gaza are the true victims of the civil war most of all because the fighting is destroying their future. With the military wing of Hamas poised to seize complete control of Gaza in what Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has rightly called a "coup attempt," Gaza's residents stand to lose whatever hope remained of achieving independence and a decent life in a viable Palestinian state. The Hamas campaign to eradicate Fatah from Gaza is certainly not the sole cause of Gazans' misery. They long suffered from Israel's suffocating occupation, and then from Ariel Sharon's foolishly unilateral withdrawal in 2005, a move that allowed Hamas to bid for power with the misleading claim that its rockets and suicide bombings had driven Israeli soldiers and settle
