Al Jazeera, an arm of the Islamic terror state of Qatar, originally the video dump for Osama bin Laden’s greatest hits, bought up much of Washington D.C. and corrupted the media so that everyone pretends it’s a news organization.
The United States not only knew that Al Jazeera was a terrorist outlet, but actually used to bomb it.
November 13, 2001 – The U.S. launches a missile attack on Al Jazeera’s office in Kabul, Afghanistan. In making the case that this was a deliberate attack, Al Jazeera’s managing director, Mohammed Jasim al-Ali, says “This office has been known by everybody, the American airplanes know the location of the office.” Although no Al Jazeera staff was hurt in the attack, the building was destroyed and some employees’ homes were damaged. In a letter to Al Jazeera dated December 6, U.S. Assistant Secretary of Defense Victoria Clarke says “the building we struck was a known Al Qaeda facility in central Kabul.”
April 8, 2003 – U.S. bombs hit Al Jazeera’s office in Baghdad, killing reporter Tareq Ayyoub and wounding cameraman Zohair al-Iraqi. Al Jazeera’s Baghdad correspondent Majed Abdel Hadi calls the U.S. missile strike and Ayoub’s death a “crime.” At a briefing in Doha, Qatar, Brigadier General Vincent K. Brooks says of the Al Jazeera attack: “This coalition does not target journalists. We don’t know every place journalists are operating on the battlefield. It’s a dangerous place, indeed.”
After Oct 6, even as Al Jazeera screamed that Israel was killing its “journalists”, evidence showed they were actually terrorists. Now after Biden and Schumer’s betrayal, now that Israel is throwing caution to the winds and starting to do what it should have done all along, it’s moving to at least temporarily shut down the Islamic terrorist operation.
And the Biden administration is unhappy.
White House spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre said on Monday if reports are true that Israel is trying to shut down the news network Al Jazeera, it would be “deeply concerning.”
State Department spokesman Matt Miller said that the administration supports the work that Al Jazeera does of supporting terrorists.
QUESTION: Matt, today the Knesset passed a law, 70 to 10, voting to pave the way for the closure of all Al Jazeera offices inside Israel. I am just wondering if you have a comment on that.
MR MILLER: So we support the independent free press anywhere in the world, and we think the work that the independent free press does is important everywhere in the world, and much of what we know about what has happened in Gaza is because of reporters who are there doing their jobs, including reporters from Al Jazeera. I’ll say, just with respect to Al Jazeera, obviously we – I think it’s well known that we’ve not always agreed with all of Al Jazeera’s coverage, but it’s a media organization that we engage with. I’ve done interviews with Al Jazeera. Other people from the department have done interviews with Al Jazeera.
So what we will continue to make clear is that we support the work that the free press does.
Al Jazeera is a state-owned media of a terrorist slave tyranny. That’s the opposite of a free press. But there’s no Islamist terrorist entity that this administration won’t side with.
