    Nice find tigermission1. I do not know if BigTexxx knows this or if it was just an honest mistake on his part. Those headlines are from the FAKE Al-Jazeera website. That website was created in hopes that people would go there instead of the actual site and form a negative opinion towards the real Al-Jazeera.

    For all of you at home, www.aljazeera.com is NOT Al-Jazeera's website. It's just like how www.whitehouse.gov is the website for the White House while www.whitehouse.com is a p*rn site. Don't ask me why I know that :)

    I think tigermission1 did a pretty darn good job. Wouldn't you agree?

    It's pretty telling that Al Jazeera (or Muslims in general) doesn't require that other site to shut down - it's further besmirching their name.

    They can't require it to be shut down. It's unfortunate how far some will go just to push their propaganda.

    Wow, I've never seen anyone so blind to both sides of the spectrum. Open your eyes my simple minded friend.

    Keep going dude, the only one 'besmirching' their name is you every time you post.

    I think I've done my part here...

    Sure, when you require "www.nowthatsf***edup.com" to shut down, I will make sure to get on it!

    Almost as telling as an uninformed public that believes it is the real site. But I do give you credit for sticking your nose back in this thread after having your initial offerings on the matter shown to be completely false.

    Funny how Dubya isn't requiring www.whitehouse.org to be shut down either, is it?

    By the way, sexxytexxy, here are the headlines from the real Al Jazeera website(www.english.aljazeera.net):


    --Pakistan quake survivors await relief

    --Annan: Darfur violence threatens aid

    --Merkel to head grand German coalition

    --EU blocks live Turkish poultry imports

    Texxxx, you've been skunked. Time for you to slink away and start a new thread with a misleading title.

    I do believe aljazeera is biased against the US but for bigtex to drag the fake site here is pretty funny. Does this qualify as a classic moment?

    I don't think Bigtexxx did this intentionally. He probably made the same mistake as many and fell prey to the webmaster's trick.

    (I can't believe I'm defending BigTexxx :) )

    Holey Moley that was almost as funny as mistaking a possum for a giant rat.
