Al-Jazeera launches English Web site

Arab television network Al-Jazeera has launched a long-awaited English-language Web site. After publishing graphic images of dead U.S. soldiers, the site has had trouble staying online, as it's been hit by denial-of-service attacks. When it's up, it should prove a valuable resource for journalists and readers looking for an Arab perspective on the war with Iraq.

The site should work fine on Internet Explorer -- I just loaded it (http://english.aljazeera.net/). You might want to try again -- you may have been trying to load it when it was offline due to hackers.

I don't trust those folks at Al Jazeera. Why should I trust their translation?

Their opinio is subjective anyway but I'd say it's worth reading.
