AL JAZEERA NAMES ITS ‘MAN OF THE YEAR’ … IT’S JEW!
In a stunning surprise, exceeding even Time Magazine’s 2006 selection, Al Jazeera has named its “Man of the Year,” and IT’S JEW!

The leading Arab language media conglomerate made clear that its choice was not an endorsement of the Jew, but merely an acknowledgement of the Jew’s evil influence in the world — similar to Time’s selection of Adolph Hitler in 1938. The announcement was made by Al Jazeera’s editors from the Gaza Strip, while running for cover from gunfire between warring Palestinian factions, Fatah and Hamas.

The cover of Al Jazeera magazine is extremely clever and state-of-the art. It features a mirror, surrounded by an orthodox hat, facial hair, and the long ring-type sideburns known as “payes,” so that anyone picking it up will see themselves as the Zionist devil.

In fact, the device worked so well it even fooled CNN anchor Soledad O’Brien into thinking she was a Hasidic Jew, despite her Latin/Irish heritage.

2. Yeah I didn't see that either.
Doesn't sound very plausible in any event.

3. .
Well, consider the source.
Anyway, this "It's you" - "It's Jew" is even somehow clever..at least a little bit ;).

5. ill-informed pranksters
I think "satiricalpolitical.com"'s a bit of a giveaway. Here's al-Jazeera's real front page.

Al-Jazeera's a very moderate news provider and doesn't do rants about the evils of Jews or anyone else in particular.

It'd have been a smarter jibe if the pranksters had attributed it to IRNA, though it's not their style either.

6. Why this guy's 'satire' does not get posted in the Lounge is beyond me.
It's always juvenile, obvious and crappy. Not appropriate for the Editorial forum, IMO.

8. Locking
While this is supposedly satire, it is nonetheless still offensive.
