Subject: RE: BS: scott ritter speaks
This is the part I was trying to emphasise:

...It would appear al-Jazeera not only shares the airwaves with al-Qaeda; it shares personnel, as well. In 2003, Taysir Allouni, a popular reporter for al-Jazeera, was arrested in Spain for having links to the al-Qaeda terrorist group. Allouni, who interviewed Osama bin Laden after 9/11, was accused of giving assistance to two al-Qaeda officials: Imad Eddin Barakat Yarkas, alias Abu Dahdah, who was arrested in November of 2001, and is believed to have been Spain's al-Qaeda commander; and Mohamed Bahiah, alias Abu Kalhed, who is believed to be an al-Qaeda militant fighting in Afghanistan

As reason why Al jazeera is not a reputable news source and people that write for them are not reputable.

The Democrats have no bearing here untill you brought it up in an attempt to make republicans look bad and you did a lousy job in your haste and had to rewrite it later.

This is not a Republican/Democrat issue as far as I can see. It is a Scott Ritter issue but you keep dragging party politics into things.

I say Scott ritter is a scumbag and the fact that he works for disreputable al Jazerra supports that.
