Aljazeera and the ICC

A reporter on Aljazeera, mister Anand something, interviewed the president of the International Criminal Court, asking him, very tamely, about the war crimes committed by the Zionists in Gaza. Anand made no effort to pin the incoherent man down by asking any embarrassing questions. He accepted everything that was said to him and this surprised me. Here was Aljazeera playing the western game as it were. The heavily accented President said that the Court had taken action against the Sudanese President because the Security Council of the U.N. had told him to, whereas nothing had been said to him about Gaza. This should have prompted the question: So the Court is not an independent body? But that question never came. Anand could have proceeded to drive the point home by pointing out that the Security Council was controlled by the U.S. and the other lovers of Zionism so it is not a surprise that Gaza was not mentioned.

I say shame on you Aljazeera. I thought you were different from the biased western media. Idiotic reporters like Anand who are unable to confront their interviewees should not be employed by you.
