Angry Al Jazeera

Unless you understand spoken Arabic you can turn down the audio on this one and just read the captions. ~ Here is a powerful & amazing statement on Al Jazeera TV. The woman is Wafa Sultan, an Arab-American psychologist from Los Angeles. I would suggest watching it ASAP because I don't know how long the link will be active ~

This interview was held quite sometime back - I just read the full transcript. Her argument was hard hitting - the Algerian professor just couldn't put forth a convincing counter argument.

Most of it was nonsense, but she did have the odd valid point.

Most of the time she was ranting and making random points which were massively generalised.

The site that clip came from is an excellent (if frightening sometimes) resource...

Some historical context though. Apparently some of Wafa Sultan's family were in the SLA, and after the Israeli occupation of Lebanon ended, went to Israel and became citizens (this was told to be my all of my Lebanese friends) - if true, then she has a major axe to grind.

I thought it was really interesting and I am suprised that it has stayed up on the web, just out of interest where was the other thread on this subject, did it get deleted ? or was it just my imagination

I would have thought Etisalat would have blocked it knowing how anal they are about things like this - nothing more ?

It's part of a big Arab media monitoring project, just one clip from hundreds. And it doesn't mention the UAE.

She also kept saying ''the muslims'' should do this,do that etc..Not all muslims are terrorists! i have many muslim friends and neighbours who are equally teriffied of this world of terrorism we are living in..and do not agree with any of these warped thinking individuals who decide to blow themselves and others up
