Al-Jazeera

Thought some people might like to know that al-jazeera's english language website is back up.

english.aljazeera.net...

It's strange, the UK media had generally built Al-Jazeera up to be some kind of pariah news organisation. To be honest it doesn't look any more militant than The Independent newspaper

www.independent.co.uk...

The english site does not show everything that the arabic site does, and it isn't nearly as anti-western... You still may want to use an arabic web translator to see the other side of the story.

PS-If anyone finds a good free arabic translator, I'ld love to know. I've got some good ones for just about every other language, but arabic seems to be elusive (at least for free...)

Al Misbar works good for a one shot, but then you have to subscribe and pay a fee....
