Outstanding Al-Jazeera! Calling AmeriKan Foreign Policy What it is!

A Golden Egg for Corporations and cronies of the BFEE...

<snip>

This is not the first U.S. company, whether contributes more to the REPUBLICAN or DEMOCRATIC Parties, that cashes in on U.S. foreign policy.

The BUSH administration operates several organizations, all tax-funded, to assist U.S. foreign investment. The foremost of these organizations are the Overseas Private Investment Corporation, the Import-Export Bank of the United States, and last but not least the International Monetary Fund, based in New York City.

Imperialist conflicts and wars, including the current war in IRAQ have always provided golden business “opportunities” . This has become a defining feature of capitalism, specifically capitalism in its era of imperialism and decay.

3. I have seen this aljazeera.com site

but I don't think it has anything to do with the real Al Jazeera news site. They don't have the AJ logo or anything. I've always thought this one was a plant. Unless AJ has a magazine (I've never seen one) and this is that site. Al Jazeera regular news site is www.aljazeera.net.

4. I always thought they were the same

one being designed for English viewers. I think you are correct, there is no Logo, an imitation perhaps? Another al-J for the US to target?

7. there is no problem using the real Al-Jazeera here

I did not realize it had an imitation that I linked from until today. I thought it was the same al-j with a different page. I never noticed the .net vs .com before. Sheesh, not very observant of me! I wonder who runs the copycat version?

Welcome to DU Tripmann! :)

Aljazeera.com is an opinion/editorial organization while Aljazeera.net is the actual news site that most of us are familiar with.
