Al Jazeera Anti-Palestine Program Slated

Al Jazeera has solicited on Wednesday posts about its upcoming pro-Israel show slated for Friday night. 

“We thought you and your followers may be interested in the following content,” Al Jazeera’s press office staff member Aya Elwadia wrote to Deborah Dupré on Wednesday in an email.

This reporter hopes at least part of Elwadia’s speculation about interest is spot on, albeit for reasons of opposing ideology regarding the slated show’s content. 

“This Friday, 28/02/2014 at 8pm UK, Mehdi Hasan goes head to head with Chief Palestinian Negotiator, Saeb Erekat, and challenges him on his strategy, the failure to reach an agreement with the Israelis, and the allegations of corruption and human rights abuses against his government.”

Yes, you read that write. Palestine’s failure, its negotiation strategy, and human rights abuses claims will be publicly challenged Friday night, thanks to “unbiased” and “progressive” AJ.

WikiLeaks was among the first to expose Al Jazeera as a New World Order propaganda media outlet. It has proven itself to be so in its reporting of Libya, Syria and Egypt, to name only a few conflicts where it manipulated unwitting public support for the elite’s geopolitical agenda, resulting in oppression of the 99%.

AJ reporters quit while some held captive, who US war criminals want released

AJ’s biased and backwards pro-American aggression reporting has resulted in its reporters being held captive in Egypt, an act U.S. leaders support regarding reporters exposing their war crimes, but not others.

“Al Jazeera has been chronicling events in Egypt, probably more intensively than any other world network,” John McCain told Al Jazeera on Friday, condemning the imprisonment of five Al Jazeera journalists in Egypt, and calling their detention “a clear violation” of their human rights and of press freedom.

Three Al Jazeera English staff members – producer Baher Mohamed, correspondent Peter Greste and producer Mohammed Fahmy – have been detained by the military in Egypt since December 29, accused of spreading lies harmful to state security and joining a terrorist group. Al Jazeera says the claims are totally unfounded. Two journalists from sister channels Al Jazeera Arabic and Al Jazeera Mubasher Misr have been detained five months.

“My message to the Egyptian government, and I know these people, is and has been: if you want to be part of the community of nations and have our cooperation and assistance, then you cannot engage in practices such as the arbitrary imprisonment of members of the media,” McCain said, according to Al Jazeera.

Apparently, Egypt rejects the United Sates’ brand of “cooperation and assistance” it imposes: deploying ops to start chaos in sovereign states so it can eventually overthrow legitimate governments and take control.

Furthermore, when McCain makes such statements, perhaps he should look at a mirror and consider his stand against Edward Snowden he accuses of the same thing: spreading lies harmful to state security. If McCain could, he’d have Snowden detained by US military, as he supported treatment of Chelsea Manning. 

Al Jazeera’s anti-Syrian propaganda reached an all time low in journalism September, as Dupré reported in the article, Killing Syrian Children For Pro-War Propaganda Video, The ‘Worst War Crime’.

A documentary with the Al Jazeera logo on it graphically shows horrors of an alleged August 21 chemical weapon attack in Al Ghout near Damascas, the dead, dying and wailing Syrian survivors, including a very small girl screaming “Damn!” at Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad, as though coached, in which case, a violation of the Convention of the Rights of the Child.  

Equally grave, the “documentary” is a prime example of the war propaganda. According to international law, war propaganda is the worst crime, a crime against peace that enables perpetrating other crimes, including crimes against humanity, according to Voltaire Network on Friday.

Also, when AJ launched it’s US media, it showed it would be nothing more than a clever propaganda mouthpiece for US-Israel alliance and related human rights abuses supported by McCain, Obama and presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton – “war criminals,” according to rights defenders, as Dupré reported in April:

Al Jazeera expanded with its American-based network that launched with Hillary Clinton and John McCain, ‘Real people,’ helping to promote it in ‘the first few minutes.’

Well, Al Jazeera is Qatar and MI6,” stated Dr. Christof Lehmann of  NSNBC in a Skype message to Dupré. “Everybody knows that.”

Historical Evidence of Hillary Clinton’s Commitment to War Crimes

‘There is clear historical evidence that HIllary Clinton is committed to the war crimes practices of the USA,’ stated international human rights attorney Alfred Lambremont in a recent Skype interview with Deborah Dupré.

Lambremont is presently in Kuala Lumpur as a Judge for the Kuala Lumpur War Crimes Tribunal trial of war crimes in Palestine by Israel since 1947.

‘Hillary Clinton supported the genocidal acts of President Bill Clinton in Yugoslavia in 1999,’ Lambremont stated in a list of crimes involving the former first lady and Secretary of State.

Lambremont highlighted words of hailed journalist and author Stephen Lendman found on David Swanson’s website, War Is A Crime (also the title of his best-selling book):

‘She’s unabashedly hawkish. As first lady, she urged husband Bill to bomb Belgrade in 1999. She ignored international and constitutional law…

‘Hillary Clinton has been Secretary of State in the Obama Administration during the implementation of its drone policies in the Middle East and its torture policies in Guantanamo, both of which involve war crimes,’ Lambremont said.

Lendman states that Hillary Clinton “represents the worst of imperial arrogance. She is a reliable spear-carrier.”

“As Secretary of State, Clinton headed foreign policy. She’s complicit in crimes of war and against humanity,” summarized Lendman.

“Like it or hate it.” Hillary Clinton said about Al Jazeera, according to the Guardian. “It is really effective.”

Yes, it is effective in promoting war crimes and gaining loving public support for their perpetrators. 

Scores of Al Jazeera reporters quit due to being expected to report propaganda. One told Spiegel that Al-Jazeera takes a position “not based on journalistic priorities, but rather on the interests of the Foreign Ministry of Qatar.” He said to maintain his journalistic integrity, “I had to quit.”

Rage Against the Media protested Al Gore’s appearance in Los Angeles after he sold Current TV’s cable and satellite carriage to the Qatari-monarchy to broadcast Al Jazeera into American households.

Today’s email from Al Jazeers continues: “Has the Palestinian leadership failed its people? Watch as Mehdi Hasan goes Head to Head with Saeb Erakat this Friday, 28/02/2014, 8pm UK, 10pm Jerusalem time! #AJH2H #Palestine.”

But here’s the clincher for human rights defenders and other activists:

“Kindly let us know if you post anything, so that we may share this on our official pages as well,” Aya Elwadia says in her email from [email protected].

Now there’s a challenge for people of goodwill, the kind of people who collected and delivered in a pizza box over 1000 written letters to Chevron expressing outrage over its free pizza offer to locals in the vicinity of the company’s fracking blowouts in Pennsylvania, in which one man died in the explosion.
