MAMOUN FANDY: Some basic facts about Al Jazeera that people should know straightforwardly. First of all, Al Jazeera is not as independent as many talk about here in the West. It's a state-owned television owned by the state of Qatar. Everyone who works in Al Jazeera is a state employee. So the idea of Al Jazeera as independent Arab channel is a myth

The Egyptian blogger Big Pharaoh keeps asking how come Colin Powell doesn't phone up the Emir of Kuwait and demand better behavior from Al Jazeerah or the US will move their bases. That's a good question and I wish I knew the answer to it.
