Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

“Al Jazeera is running a jihad out of Jerusalem”

Aug 11, 2017 12:05 pm By Robert Spencer

The apotheosis of establishment media bias.

“‘Al Jazeera is running a jihad out of Jerusalem,'” by Shimon Cohen, Arutz Sheva, October 8, 2017:

Communications Minister Ayoub Kara (Likud) has begun the process of shutting down the Al Jazeera offices in Jerusalem over the network’s support for radical Islamist groups.

Arutz Sheva spoke about the network’s closure with those were interviewed several times by Al Jazeera, including Arabic culture expert Dr. Mordechai Kedar.

Dr. Kedar agreed with the government’s assessment that Al Jazeera supports terrorism.

“The Al Jazeera channel runs a jihad, as it defines itself, against the Arab rulers, against Israel, against the US and the West, and against Westernism that infiltrates the Islamic societies. The goal of the campaign is to promote the Muslim Brotherhood everywhere, Gaza, Judea and Samaria, Egypt, Jordan, et cetera,” he said.

Dr. Kedar noted that Al Jazeera considers the terrorist organizations Hamas and Hezbollah to be ‘freedom fighters.’

As for the statement that the network actually conducts jihad, he says that “Sheikh Yusuf Qaradawi, who has formed the ideology of ​​Qatar in recent years and therefore also that of Al Jazeera, said that ‘every person has to go out to jihad in his own way as you do with Al Jazeera” This is the man who turned Qatar into a Muslim Brotherhood state.”

Dr. Kedar said that Al Jazeera was even more dangerous to the Sunni Arab nations than to Israel. “This is a channel whose sole purpose is to stir up internal conflicts and wars in the Arab world, and therefore many in the Western world blame the network for lighting the match of the Arab Spring.”

“Two months ago, five Sunni Arab states launched a series of sanctions against Qatar, including an air and sea blockade and demands to shut down Al-Jazeera, but the Qataris have friends like Iran and Turkey. They have a lot of money, so both sides are surviving,” he explained. “Recently, Al Jazeera closed a special channel for Egypt that was involved in promoting the Muslim Brotherhood and was behind Morsi when he was president. They closed the channel after they made trouble for Al-Sisi and his people.”…

    The Arab Gulf countries have too much money and time on their hands, so they stir up trouble for the rest of the world.

    The best way to deal with these 7th century morons is to bankrupt them by refusing to buy their oil. We urgently need to develop other fuels to end once and for all the influence of these 7th century barbarians.

      mortimer, you would be surprised what a specially shaped capacitor and high voltage current can do to generate cheap, renewable energy.
      my point is, electric current is the greenest fuel, when generated with solid state drives such as the one i described above.
      of course, these are not exactly 5 o’clock news material, and that’s for a reason.

    I like news channels like Al Jazeera and RT that give viewers a diferent view of things. It’s not a good idea to close them down or interfere with their transmissions. People are complaining in Germany that all news is pro-government. Well we certainly don’t need that. Alternative sources are essential.

      I generally agree with you, Winston–even when it is propaganda. But Al Jazeera is actively supporting Jihad terror groups. Surely you don’t think we should overlook *that*?

        Almost every news channel is supporting somebody. When we have a variety of sources we can generally sort the wheat from the chaff for ourselves. That’s the best and probably the only realistic option when you think about it, unless we are happy to swallow everything channel our choice spoon feeds us and leave it at that.

    The date reads “October” of 2017. We aren’t there yet.

    Didn’t al gore have business dealings with al jazeera?

    It’s something to see they feel they have every right to promote destruction of the nation that allows them to operate inside the borders Just as moslums do in every country where they can infiltrate and set up their shop of horrors.

    Looks like my Moroccan friends were right all along when they judged Al Jazeera, years ago, to be a media front for the advancement of Militant Jihadist Causes. Now that the Israelis are doing the right thing, by closing the news agency down, I’ll be encouraging these guys to push for Morocco to follow Egypt and Jordan in moving towards the formal recognition of the State of Israel.
