Wikipedia has an article on Al-Jazeera. All liberal media has its problems in general, specially with bias.

As one can imagine, it is a challenge shifting through all the crap written about the Middle East. From the scholarly side there is MERIP (Middle East Research and Information Project: https://merip.org/) there is also Informed Comment (https://www.juancole.com/) by Juan Cole, a historian at Univ. of Michigan. For a collection of critical news, one site is Middle East Eye (https://www.middleeasteye.net). The independent journalist Anand Gopal is another good source, particularly on Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan.

Given the title and poster I don't think it was a genuine agreement.

Some Twitter and Reddit leftists do (just as well as they romanticize Stalin on the other end,) but all the anarchists who are actually on the ground (and not total shithead machos) or who discuss it in detail seem skeptical but acknowledge it as pretty-much-the-best-we-got. Most of the criticisms apply just as well to the CNT, 1936. The point is that it opens doors to libertarian organizing.
