Het leuke aan die kringloopwinkels is dat je soms goeie elpees tegen komt die ver onder de cataloguswaarde zitten omdat de medewerkers (meestal niet helemaal honderd) geen flauw benul van de muziek hebben.

The White House has for the first time claimed ownership of an Iraq withdrawal plan, arguing that a troop pullout blueprint unveiled this past week by a Democratic senator was "remarkably similar" to its own.

(...)

Less than two weeks ago, McClellan blasted Democratic Representative John Murtha, saying that by calling for an immediate withdrawal from Iraq, the congressman was "endorsing the policy positions of Michael Moore," a stridently anti-war Hollywood filmmaker.

Biden's ideas, relayed first in a November 21 speech in New York, however, got a much friendlier reception.

Even though President George W. Bush has never publicly issued his own withdrawal plan and criticized calls for an early exit, the White House said many of the ideas expressed by the senator were its own.

October 20, 2001: "Vice-President Dick Cheney alerted the emir of Qatar that Al-Jazeera will be seen as 'Osama's outlet to the world' since it aired bin Laden's video dispatches from Afghanistan during Operation Enduring Freedom."

January 20, 2004: Without mentioning Al-Jazeera by name, President Bush makes a certain allusion to it in his State of the Union Speech: "To cut through the barriers of hateful propaganda, the Voice of America and other broadcast services are expanding their programming in Arabic and Persian -- and soon, a new television service will begin providing reliable news and information across the region."

March 17, 2004: "Donald Rumsfeld has called Al Jazeera's coverage 'outrageous' and 'inexcusably biased' and implied that he'd like to see the satellite channel thrown out of Iraq.

April 15, 2004: "Secretary Rumsfeld: 'I can definitively say that what al-Jazeera is doing is vicious, inaccurate and inexcusable.' "

May 1, 2004 Following talks at The White House with Vice President Dick Cheney and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, "Qatar's foreign minister said on Thursday he would seek a review of Arabic television station al Jazeera's coverage of Iraq after Washington complained it was inaccurate and anti-American...The Bush administration has warned Qatar its relations with the United States were clouded by what it called 'inflammatory' coverage of Iraq by Jazeera, whose satellite broadcasts have a wide Arab audience."

June 7, 2004: speaking at an international economic summit, then national security advisor Condoleeza Rice "criticized Arabic-language broadcaster Al-Jazeera for 'purely inaccurate' reporting, suggesting the Qatar-based satellite station was presenting a biased account of developments in the Middle East." (The nation of Qatar was not invited to the conference in what administration officials later acknowledged was a deliberate snub designed to bring pressure on Qatar to reign in Al-Jazeera)

September 16, 2004: "US Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld says journalists have received tip-offs from terrorists of impending attacks in Iraq, singling out Al-Jazeera television as 'Johnny-on-the-spot a little too often for my taste.' "

quote:

November 2001: The Al-Jazeera offices in Kabul are bombed by US forces during the war against the Taliban regime in Afghanistan. Reporters Without Borders ask US defense secretary Donald Rumsfeld at the time for an explanation of the attack but get no answer.

December 15, 2001: Sami Muhyideen al-Haj, an assistant cameraman for Al-Jazeera, is arrested by Pakistani authorities along the Afghan-Pakistani border while on assignment for the network. He is later transferred to U.S. custody at Guantanamo Bay, where he is still being held to this day without formal charges. The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) has expressed concern over allegations that U.S. military interrogators told him that he would be released if he agreed to inform about Al-Jazeera's activities. In September 2002, CPJ wrote to Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld calling on the Pentagon to detail the basis for al-Haj's detention and received no response. "We're troubled by these latest reports, but most disturbing is the U.S. military's long-term detention of Sami al-Haj without putting forward evidence that he has committed a crime," CPJ Executive Director Ann Cooper said. "The implication here is that the military can detain a journalist in the field, as it does with other suspects, and hold him for months or years without due process or establishing a legal basis for his incarceration." Cooper added: "The United States should credibly explain the basis for Sami al-Haj's detention or release him immediately."

March 29, 2003: Four members of the Al-Jazeera crew in Basra, the only journalists inside the city, come under gunfire from British tanks as they are filming distribution of food by Iraqi government officials. One of the station’s cameramen, Akil Abdel Reda, goes missing and is later found to have been held for 12 hours by US troops.

April 7, 2003: A clearly marked Al-Jazeera vehicles comes under fire from US forces on a motorway near Baghdad.

April 8, 2003: Al-Jazeera cameraman reporter Tareq Ayoub is killed when a US missile slams into the station's Baghdad bureau. Reporters Without Borders expresses outrage at the US bombing: "We strongly condemn this attack on a neighborhood known to include the offices of several TV stations," said secretary-general Robert Ménard in a letter to Gen. Tommy Franks, commander of US military operations in Iraq. "To ensure the safety of its journalists, Al-Jazeera’s management has been careful to inform the Americans of the exact location of its crews right from the start of the war. The US army cannot therefore claim it did not know where the Baghdad offices were." An Al-Jazeera journalist who was in Baghdad until a few days before told Reporters Without Borders that "it couldn’t’ve been a mistake. We’ve told the Pentagon where all our offices are in Iraq and hung giant banners outside them saying ’TV.’"

April 21, 2003 (link no longer active): British forces detain Al-Jazeera TV correspondent Mohammad Al-Sayed Mohsen in the Iraqi city of Basra where he is covering the US-led occupation... Mohsen says a British soldier “became furious” when he read the cards, issued from the Iraqi Information Ministry, and confiscated his camera... The Al-Jazeera correspondent says it was the third time British forces had harassed him... They were escorted to a British camp where a soldier addressed them in Arabic and told them they would not be allowed to work in the area until further notice. Mohsen said the soldier repeatedly asked him how he could be an Iraqi and be working for Al-Jazeera. The New York-based Committee to Protect Journalists condemned the arrest. “For US-led forces to detain a journalist working in Iraq is a violation of press freedom and coalition forces are obligated to respect the right of journalists of all outlets to work in the country.”

September 10, 2003 U.S. troops detain Al-Jazeera correspondent Atwar Bahgat and her cameraman, Yasser Bahgat (no relation), in the Ghazaliya section of Baghdad. They were filming near the Ghazaliya Bridge, which had been sealed by U.S. troops after an explosion allegedly took place earlier in the day. When a U.S. soldier approached them and ordered them to back away from the bridge, the journalists complied but when they continued filming, the soldiers put both journalists into a Humvee and took them to a detention center at Baghdad Airport, where U.S. forces asked them how they had learned about the explosion. One interrogator accused the journalists of knowing about the explosion before it happened. They were released after spending the night in detention. The Associated Press quoted an unnamed military spokesman as saying that the journalists had violated unspecified “ground rules.”

November 2003: Coalition troops detain two Al-Jazeera staffers covering an explosion at a police station in western Baghdad on allegations they had prior knowledge of the car bombing. Al-Jazeera dismissed the charges as ridiculous, and the men were later freed.

November 3, 2003: Salah Hassan, an Al-Jazeera cameraman, is arrested while interviewing people at the scene of a roadside bomb attack on a US military convoy in Dialah, near the eastern Iraqi city of Baquba. US troops repeatedly accuse him of knowing in advance about the bomb attack and of lying in wait to get footage. "I told them to review my tapes, that it was clear I had arrived thirty or forty minutes after the blast. They told me I was a liar," says Hassan. He is taken to the military base at Baghdad International Airport, held in a bathroom for two days, then flown hooded and bound to Tikrit. After two more days in another bathroom, he is loaded onto a five-truck convoy of de-tainees and shipped south to Abu Ghraib prison. Once inside, Hassan says, he is greeted by US soldiers who sing "Happy Birthday" to him through his tight plastic hood, strip him naked and address him only as "Al Jazeera," "boy" or "bitch." He is forced to stand hooded, bound and naked for eleven hours. In the morning, Hassan says, he is made to wear a dirty red jumpsuit that is covered with someone else's fresh vomit and interrogated by two Americans in civilian clothes. They make the usual accusations that Hassan and Al Jazeera were in cahoots with "terrorists." He was later released for lack of evidence. The Nation's Christian Parenti was told by one source at the civilian Coalition Provisional Authority: "Anything about Al Jazeera is very sensitive, so any on-the-record comment would have to come from pretty far up in the hierarchy. Only a very senior person can deal with this." But repeated calls to the CPA's senior spokesperson, Dan Senor, produced no response.

November 7, 2003: Sami Awad, a Lebanese cameraman working as a freelancer for a German TV network, says that when he and his crew tried to check out a report Friday about hand grenades being thrown at a U.S. patrol in Baghdad, U.S. soldiers threw them to the ground and pointed their weapons at their heads. "They checked our identity badges and then let us go, saying they thought we were with Al-Jazeera,"

January 2004 (link no longer active): Iraq's then-Governing Council bans Al-Jazeera reporters from entering its offices or covering its news conferences for a month because it had reportedly shown disrespect toward prominent Iraqis.

May 21, 2004: Al-Jazeera employee, Rashid Hamid Wali, is shot and killed covering fighting in the city of Karbala.

August 5, 2004 (link no longer active): The Iraqi government suspends Al-Jazeera's Baghdad operations, accusing it of inciting violence.

September 4, 2004 (link no longer active): The Iraqi government shuts down Al-Jazeera's Baghdad operations indefinitely because al-Jazeera had failed to offer an explanation of its editorial policies. The station's spokesman, Jihad Ballout, said the office in Baghdad was stormed by Iraqi security forces hours before the order was announced. "Members of the Iraqi security forces attacked our office, although it's been closed for nearly a month now. They took photographs and sealed it," Ballout said. "They positioned nearly 14 security officers outside Al-Jazeera."
