Welcome to the party, Toots!
Josef Federman in the Wall Street Journal keeps a straight face with Al-Jazeera Launches Site In English:

Al-Jazeera went live early yesterday with its English-language Web site -- and the Qatar-based satellite network immediately assumed a posture likely to provoke Western readers.

The site (english.aljazeera.net) has promised to offer a different perspective than those of Western media and has stuck to its word. Its graphic photos of dead U.S. soldiers, pointed headlines and opinionated articles -- many of them without reporters' bylines -- will provide plenty of fodder for critics of the Middle Eastern news organization. The content is produced separately from its Arabic-language counterpart.
...
Managing Editor Joanne Tucker, a former BBC journalist who holds dual U.S.-British citizenship and speaks Arabic, has promised Western-style standards of journalism. She said she stands by all the articles but conceded that the site has to do more to clarify what is news and what is opinion.

Seeing as Joanne is from the BBC, don't expect much clarifying. But it is all moot anyhow since the site has been DOS'd into the Stone Age.

Hey, why not play Welcome Wagon and also help 'em check their connections? Open a command prompt and type ping -n 1000 english.aljazeera.net and just let it cook in the background. It won't get you into the haX0r elite, but it feels good to extend an upright middle digit to those that deserve it.
