Found and article on the launch of the English Al Jazeera over on Washington Scandal, which I am posting a part of here. If the people of the world are going to seriously dialogue with the intent of finding a common ground, don't we need to hear ALL SIDES to the issues? How can we hear all sides of Governmental and/or Corporate powers attempt to stifle or censor the voice of those we percieve as the enemy?

Is Pentagon Throttling Al Jazeera English Start Up?
No one has a problem with Americans having access to the Canadian Broadcasting System and its news programs. For many of us bloggers, BBC is a regular staple of news items, a great source for a different slant on stories breaking here in the USA. Included in my own news links are sources from around the world...yet, the launch of Al Jazeera English is seeing pundits rushing to the airwaves decrying the act, insisting that Americans should not be made to view their terrorist brand of broadcasting...uhhhh...isn't that CENSORSHIP?
