      No offense but I don’t trust aljazeera on anything involving Israel, their other reporting tends to be fairly good though.

        Literally 2 seconds of Googling- https://iowacapitaldispatch.com/2023/10/20/nikki-haley-says-she-would-support-israel-strengthen-u-s-military-as-president/

        Let me guess, you don’t trust an Iowa newspaper to accurately report on what Nikki Haley said while she was campaigning in Iowa.

          Nicely cited. Didn’t even need the snarky jab chaser lol.

          He’s not very wrong about Al Jazeera’s editorial bent.

            The Al Jazeera article had direct quotes from Haley. Unless your argument is that Al Jazeera fabricates such quotes, and I don’t think there is any evidence they do that, the criticism was wrong.

              Nope, I agree that AJ article is well written and on point.

              My feeling about AJ is they seem to have a background editorial agenda in general.

              And that’s plenty ok, IMO. Just good to keep in mind.

          Thank you for a source that wasn’t aljazeera.

          Come on squid, me, you, and pugjesus all have slightly different feelings but we pretty much agree on a lot.

          Why make it personal?

          I was polite and only asked for a source that was too close to the subject and would undoubtedly have a large amount of bias on this subject .

          I know for a fact that you are better than this.

            Because acting like the source that gives direct quotes is too biased to trust those quotes is silly. Especially when you’re talking about Al Jazeera, not Newsmax.

              I don’t trust their “quotes” not to be false and I do not feel like taking the time to cross verify with other trusted sources.

              Once again, aljazeera is fine for things not relating to Israel, I just don’t trust them on this subject.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
