Unrealistic expectations

Judea Pearl, the father of the late Daniel Pearl, has an Op-Ed in the weekend edition of the Wall Street Journal on the obscenity that was Al Jazeera's celebration of terrorist Samir Kuntar's release from Israeli prison and then his subsequent birthday: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB121884481129346039.html?mod=djemEditorialPage. While Pearl is completely right in terms of his point, what does he expect? Al Jazeera is a terrorist mouthpiece. To expect it to do anything other than to celebrate those who kills Jews and/or Americans is to expect the impossible.
