Hey everybody. How are you? Hope you are having a very blessed Ramadan. Due to the recent political events in Egypt I couldn't stop myself from focusing on politics over the past weeks. However, things are going to change... but gradually. This week I will mix politics with music.
In my previous article I mentioned some who spread lies instead of the truth about Egypt and its revolution claiming that it was a military coup.
Today I want to tell you about a Qatari channel named Al Jazeera. Over the past years this station has been making news up which made Egyptians call it other names including Al Khanzeera (the pig) and Al Haqeera (the mean).
Recently the channel's attitude drove many to quit working for it.
Ouch... there goes its credibility. When its people abandoned the ship they proved to the world that it should not be watched in the first place.
I prefer to stick to the original name... yes "stick" is the appropriate word because with all that slime it's a very "sticky" channel. Al Jazeera means "the island" and I believe it is an isolated island, where people have no clue about what is going on in the world.
What is in it for this channel? When an establishment has no ethics then we should know that whatever it does is for a benefit.
Incidentally, many told me not to waste my time writing about this establishment. Some said it's not worth it and others believe that pretty soon this Jazeera thing will be out of business anyway.
I wanted to know the opinion of a colleague from the younger generation, so I asked my friend Farah el Wakeel to write a little about what she thinks.
Although Farah only graduated days ago from Misr International University, I consider her a colleague because she majored in journalism. This is what she wrote:
"What can be more filthy than a news coverage that succeeds through deceptions and hideous lies; not only creating mass destruction in one nation but also manipulating the minds of those who live in other nations. Al Jazeera has promised through its slogan to set the news agenda "Setting the news Agenda" indeed it has done so with an interfering offensive manner.
Al Jazeera has done nothing during the second successful Egyptian revolution but setting a fake and obscene agenda internationally! It showed sensational bloody graphics of dying children and massacring of women, supposedly in Egypt, while in fact logical humans can differentiate Syrian victims from Egyptians!"
"Their lies grew even greedier when they shot only sound bites with people who assure that NO ONE supports the Military Forces'
decision and that they are nothing but traitors who betrayed their country after the final official statement by Egypt's Minister of Defence Abdel Fattah al-Sissi, which was summed up by the ousting of Mohamed Morsi. At least now everyone knows where the rotten fish out there is.
Yet the question lies here in "Who?" Who is Al Jazeera channel serving? The Muslim Brotherhood so called now the Forbidden Hood or the American policy, or maybe the Qatari policy? Having thought about this, it is very perceivable that the three are interrelated in a disgusting manner. All three depend on each other, all three feed on each other and all three lost their credibility in Egypt."
"Another question is "Why?" Why is a Qatari channel serving the American policy to paralyse Egypt? Is it to create a national religious conflict between two religions? The smarter answer would be to create a war in Egypt that is not only meant to be between two different religions Islam and Christianity the war here was supposed to be between the four Islam classifications! Would that help America? Yes it would by finally manipulating one of the most strategic countries on Earth.
More and more questions can be asked about the relations between the three bonds and only one question goes to Al Jazeera: Do you really believe that Egyptian minds are that ignorant? It is not a cold war, neither a political war nor a religious war; it is in fact a Media war."
Well, Farah knows what she is talking about but apparently All Jazeera people don't. If we are going to move on to music then I have to answer a question asked by Sade when she inquired "Is It A Crime?" Yes dear... faking the truth and lying to millions of viewers is a crime according to my book and all books at Alexandrina Bibliotheca.
I guess those liars love the band Cradle of Filth because they can easily relate to the band's name. This is one channel you must bathe after watching and you should watch it only if you are into disgusting stuff like gore movies.
I bet the administration of that thing never heard of words like "principales" and "ethics", so in my own special way I will try to teach them a couple of words. I thought I'd pay tribute to that thing called Al Jazeera and so I wrote a short song based on the melody of Julie Andrews' classic "Do Re Mi"
"Let's start from the very beginning, with rules you must know by heart, when you lie you'll be dumped in the trash, we all know you're doing this for cash, don't you see, don't you see, your lies are so dumb and silly, don't you see, don't you see, you're malicious as can be... let's see if you have any principales.
So we hear what you want us to hear, news made by people on the run, we see things made by yourselves and you fake the news for fun.
You must be sick in the head, your channel is hanging by a thread, find a decent job instead because it's time for you to go, go, go, go."
Final note before I go, even porn channels are more decent and have more ethics than Al Jazeera who offers nothing but crap.
