There was no rational argument, no logic, no balance, nothing but hatred against those evil Israelis who have stopped us from murdering them in their sleep. How dare they! We used to be able to lob mortars at will into apartment complexes, used to be able to send 10 year old children wandering randomly across the border carrying as much explosives as they could handle, and now we can't! How frustrating! Evil Israel!
And this is your news source? That explains a lot...

Basing your opinion on one report? Thats fair and balanced.
Al Jazeera has been banned in number of the more fundamental theocracies and despotic countries in the ME. Is that worth anything to you? It represents the best hope there is for a free media in the ME. I suppose if its on AlJazeera its propoganda, but if its on Fox, its news.
We report, you believe.
