US Foreign Policy (Dr. El-Najjar's Articles)  

 

 

 

 

Al-Jazeerah (www.aljazeerah.info) was founded on January 24, 2002 as an educational publication. For five years, it was a forum for intellectuals from the US and other countries, who educated readers about peace and horrors of war.

 

Pro-war forces did not like Al-Jazeerah and kept trying to silence it until they succeeded temporarily on March 22, 2007, when they conducted an internet and letter-writing campaign against the educational institution employing the Al-Jazeerah editor and founder.

 

In order to protect his academic institution from the blackmail and the smearing campaign of the pro-war forces, the editor of Al-Jazeerah stopped the publication as a forum for news and views, particularly about the wars in Palestine, Iraq, and Afghanistan. Thankfully, this was a temporary halt until the storm of savage, ignorant, Neo-McCarthyist losers passed.

 

It seems that the anti-Arab and anti-Muslim reactionary forces have a problem with the Arabic name of Al-Jazeerah. They seem not to mind the existence of other US anti-war publications, with English names.

 

A new publication has been founded to reinforce Al-Jazeerah in publishing news and views about the wars in Palestine, Iraq, and Afghanistan, with an English name this time, "Cross-Cultural Understanding" (www.ccun.org), with the goal of bridging the gap of communication across conflicting cultures.

 

Al-Jazeerah, however, has continued with a focus on educating people about Islam, as it was apparent that the pro-war forces have been trying to smear humanity's greatest religion.
