Israel's communications minister said on Sunday he was seeking a possible closure of Al Jazeera's local bureau, and accused the Qatari news station of pro-Hamas incitement and of exposing Israeli soldiers to potential attack from Gaza.

    Al Jazeera has had some excellent in-depth reporting and is not some radical propaganda outlet, any more than the BBC or NPR. Their perspective is different but not incorrect or intentionally misleading and tends to be factually on par with the AP and Reuters.

    The Onion article on their position accurately sums up most western media outlets approach to Israel. It’s a weird blind spot for much of the west.
