aljazeera
I also had the liberty of watching aljazeera everyday... since we always lived in Arab hotels... it's the funniest thing... you have that and sometimes we would get Fox News. they're both on totally opposite ends. in Jerusalem however, we only got aljazeera and other Palestinian channels. aljazeera is totally crazy... I can see why the hatred is so deep... the news they report is so one-sided, it's ridiculous.
One time, they were retracing the past 14 days of the War in Gaza... so I expected them to summarize what Israel did and what Hamas did... nope... from day one... they said Israel bombed Gaza... and day 2... Israel did so and so... nothing about Hamas shooting rockets into Israeli zone first. and they reported that the UN stopped giving aids out of nowhere... or because one of their drivers got hurt. but nothing about how Hamas was smuggling in artillery on those trucks and that's why it was stopped. It's just amazing how one sided aljazeera is... it's no wonder they would hate Israeli's so much more... not that Israel is any way in the right or treating Palestinians rightly... but it's media like this that gives blowtorch effects to the already sensitive religious agendas...

American media is just as bad....except it's pro-Israeli. When my cousin went to the middle east, he came back so pro-palestinian that he even bought a big flag and hung it in his window!!! He said everything that the American media portrays the middle east to be is so convoluted.
That's one of the reasons the world is so f-d up! Never believe everything you see in the media.
