Al-Jazeera the network known for giving Osama bin Laden with his home his voice and al-Qaeda for that matter following the 9/11 attacks is planning a major US expansion.

Having just what Al Gore's current TV for 500 million dollars the network's -- North American form is not only changing their name to Al-Jazeera America.

But they plan to build news bureaus in.

Eight major cities so what should viewers expect what is their gold to me right now as the CEO of concerned veterans for America -- US army veteran.

My interaction with Al-Jazeera should we be concerned about them infiltrating into -- we should know exactly what they're going to bring to bear -- as image I didn't interviews with Al-Jazeera English in 20072008.

As an Iraq War veteran.

Who believed in successfully completing that war.

And I did it because I want to put a human face on the guy serving because they characterize these guys monsters killers and it and I can stand on their.

Face to face with it with an anchor as -- that's not what we're doing that's not what's happened on the ground the images -- showing -- not true.

I think you're gonna see a lot of the same they're gonna try to be more nuanced about it because ultimately the end of the day.

They're gonna need viewership.

That it it at this Amir who bought the network has and you -- bottomless pockets and he can pay for but he's not gonna wanna lose money forever.

I think they're gonna hedging him and hobble to be very -- to watch how they -- -- their anti American narratives and everything -- talk because Al-Jazeera English has been announced order here and they try to hire -- American talent and they just say well listen and I adjusted non us news and got out of it yeah.

Did did that's why they're gonna have to.

Because if they come here and they it's been completely slanted anti American you know especially foreign policy news.

But people gonna turn it off absent those who are watching Al Gore's current T -- Al Gore.

The gift.

That of course keeps on giving but but it's also -- -- -- in this Villa -- she's unbelievable where he can dams oil has the big problem with a well.

Did this whole network's been fueled an oil profits and that was sacrifice that his dad did the same thing after you -- the US senate you have that he helped -- -- as the head of Occidental Petroleum he allowed him -- helped him will get -- with this business cashing in on contacts and you know you reported and I know we've reported how he happened to wait ten days for the sale.

Our got it done early so we can avoid taxes the TV guy who believes in everyone paying more taxes there's no principle involved in this whatsoever he cashed in -- the 200 million dollars he seems to be -- with the fact that Al-Jazeera is going to be on our doorstep with seven investigative reporters what are -- -- -- be looking for.

What are they gonna be digging into who -- try to expose whether -- truth or not.

Be it bad news all Iran and Al-Jazeera got a foothold in Washington DC and seven other cities saying I think what you wish he would you -- -- on their take a model -- minority perspective.

And we'll just see what's going on now as we continue to grow because -- I was watching current TV people exit the CEO -- veterans for America always been seen -- thanks -- are right let.
