    I think it would be great to have Al Jazeera English on TV. here. I hope that I will be able to get it on the satellite.

    I wonder how many of the 1700 posts he has are actually a post starting a new thread. I would bet that it is a higher than normal percentage.

    Too bad, can't wait for Al-Jazeera to start airing here, it would be nice to have a different perspective and yet another option for Americans to get their news from. It's good to have a balance out there, although from everything I've heard, Al-Jazeera International will likely be more similar to the BBC than anything else.

    I love how some people have started a "Stop Al-Jazeera" website...LOL! They're terrified of the idea that Americans might just tune in. :D

    Can't be any worse than Fox or CNN.

    I suppose it would act as a counterweight to Fox, with CNN and MSNBC falling somewhere inbetween.

    I would welcome it. The women on al-Jazeera are hot.

    It's the "Al Qaida" network because they have a view that reflects the views of a part of the world where we are interested in setting up Democracies?

    Maybe we should better understand the parts of the world where we wish to do business instead of just assuming the people in other parts of the world bow to our way of thinking.

    Just a thought.

    No way! We want to make all Muslims eat Big Macs, listen to Britney Spears, and drive SUV's! It's the American way, or else!

    ;) :D

    I find all women to be explosive, not just Muslim women.

    That sense of humor of yours makes your perceived slights from other topics less convincing...
