| quote: | | Al-Jazeera, a satellite news agency based in Qatar, is an unusually independent voice in the Arab world. It has been called “the Arab CNN.� It planned to launch an English version of its site by the end of March. But the network's Web site suffered denial-of-service attacks and hacking since it showed pictures of dead and captive U.S. soldiers in Iraq. Now, both the English and the Arabic versions of the site are down. But, they could come back at any time. | from:http://www.infotoday.com/newsbreaks/nb030331-1.shtml
now, i didnt find out about this until i read about it in 2600, can someone pleaze explain what happened, and if it was even on the news?
doesnt seem like anyone realy cares, but maybe they shouldnt cuz' they suposedly broke the "rules of war" by showing the footage.
but seriously, if i were to try to find some news coverage (obviously NOT form a western source)about Iraq, the WTC attacks and the middle-east, where would be a good place to look on the net?
or do i have to learn arabic to get the full story?
