The incident underlines the West's difficulties in getting its message across to the Muslim world: The war against terrorism is not a war against Islam and Arabs. Al-Jazeera, based in Qatar and widely watched in the Middle East and by Arabic speakers in the United States, has emerged as a key opinion maker because of its independent editorial policy a rarity in the region. It also has become known for airing taped statements by Osama bin Laden, the prime suspect in the Sept. 11 attacks on New York and Washington, and by the spokesman for bin Laden's organization, al-Qaida. In her interview with Al-Jazeera on Monday, national security adviser Condoleezza Rice demanded that the Palestinians halt violence against Israel and expressed Washington's concerns about Iraqi President Saddam Hussein. She also discussed Washington's reasons for its attacks on Afghanistan and assured Muslims they were not the target of the war on terrorism. Viewers, however, will not see the remarks on Afghanistan and the war on terror until the full interview is aired, a broadcast that by late Tuesday had not been firmly scheduled. But the comments on the Palestinians and Iraq all likely to anger Arabs were aired more than a dozen times to promote the interview. Hamdi Qandil, a veteran Egyptian TV anchor, told The Associated Press, "America has already lost ... before the whole interview is aired." ©New Haven Register 2001 Source: <a href="http://www.zwire.com/site/news.cfm?BRD=1281&dept_id=7574&newsid=2505769&PAG">http://www.zwire.com/site/news.cfm?BRD=1281&dept_id=7574&newsid=2505769&PAG>= 461&rfi=9 ------------------ http://all.net/ Your use of Yahoo!
