why is MEMRI important?

“The Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) provides daily English translations of film and print media stories originating in Arabic, Iranian and Turkish media.”

“It sends its daily postings to every news outlet in the United States and Europe, in addition to politicians and cultural leaders.”
http://www.infocusnews.net/content/view/15069/135/

“For some time now, I have been receiving small gifts from a generous institute in the United States. The gifts are high-quality translations of articles from Arabic newspapers which the institute sends to me by email every few days, entirely free-of-charge.
The emails also go to politicians and academics, as well as to lots of other journalists.”

    But the translations aren’t accurate and that is the problem.

    Memri puts out videos that are created in Arab/muslim countries, with translations. Who cares if it is “propaganda”. The videos are real and the translations are accurate, so people can judge for themselves.

    And this is aswell the reason why people can’t believe what MEMRI is telling them! It is sad, but what MEMRI translates is by 90 percent correct!!!!

    … The core problem of the Middle East Conflict is that THE MUSLIMS (with Iran at its peak) don’t want accept the legitimated existence of a jewish state in the middle east (or anywhere!!!). They hate the Jews because they are Jews! Noone in this world wants or can understand this fact… that’s the reason, why everybody is blaming israel for the conflict. I call this fact the battered wife syndrom!!

The agressor of this war was HAMAS. And Hamas is the “governing party” in GAZA! How crackbrained is this government?? If the “palestinian gov’t” would decide rational would conclude very quickly, that you have to deal with israel on not to fight against it!!! But the Hamas is forced by its hate against the jews!! …

    Why do you judge on israel on a different way than on other countries? Apart from the fact, that the IDF is the only army in this world which has such good values - e.g. gambling strategic addvantages away in order to save peoples life with calling them at theire homes before attacking them - I’m suppries why people think, that there is no suffering and injustice in a war? Operation Cast Lead was a war!!! The fact, that - luckyly - only 14 israelis having been killed shows only the asymmetry of

  • grischatube says:

    Hey, “aBetterWorld” …
    Hey, “aBetterWorld”.. if Arabs could, they would kill so much Israelis they can, it can be proofed by the charta of hamas or even by the haterd speeches against jews of you clerics or just simple by the suicide bombing in buses disos etc…. so do not try to relativate the facts. memri shows the truth.. truthtube. tv also

  • aBetterWorld says:

    The point I was …
    The point I was making is that YOU called the Islamic world backward even though they don’t kill nearly as much as the Israelis. For example the last battle in Gaza the Israelis killed 1300 including 400 children compared to Hamas which killed 14 Israelis but Hamas is the one that is backward? The best case you could possibly make is that they are both backward but of course you have to come up with a rationalization to justify Israeli’s actions.

  • kwiat77 says:

    I don’t believe in …
    I don’t believe in your ‘tit for tat” or “eye for an eye” mentality - thats medieval, and irrational and you know it. Numbers of those killed has absolutely no correspondance to actual blame, thats ridiculous. So, simply because one group kills more of the other - they are therefore wrong? This is warped logic. I think we all know that if the Arabs put down their arms tomorrow, life would go on as normal; if Israel did the same thing, they would be mercilessly attacked. This is not hyperbole.

  • aBetterWorld says:

    Do do Arabs kill …
    Do do Arabs kill more Israelis or the other way around? The answer is easy and non controversial but the fact that the world sees the Islamic world as backward is the crazy part.

  • kwiat77 says:

    Please… one, two, …
    Please… one, two, even a dozen incorrect translations still doesn’t make a dent in the hundreds, perhaps thousands of actual hate filled words uttered by Arabs on tv. The fact remains, the Arab/Muslim populations in their respective countries are being kept ingorant and hate-filled as a result of idiot theocracies and ridiculous, backward Islamic teachings.

  • aBetterWorld says:

    Maybe you should watch my video before you comment on it. Memri lies and there is plenty of proof.

  • kwiat77 says:

    So what? Indeed, maybe the creators of Memri are so-called “Zionists” - the fact remains, that they are not creating what is on the Arab media - they are simply translating it and showing the world. The problem does not lie with them, but with what is openly uttered (by some very stupid people I might add) in the Arab and Muslim media.

    Philistine is a hole full of death cult.
    who cares about translations by some online guy,
    pallywood phantasies with their twisted middle age views on life over there.?
    Nobody.
    Israel is a country, where anybody who is sane in the head, could live.
    For living in Islamic holes, one needs to be crazy.

  • theStormaftertheCalm says:

    The only …
    The only documentation that I am aware of that confirms what I’m saying about the true nature of disputes between Israel and Arabs/Persians is the program “Children of Abraham.” The land deeds info came from my brother-in-law who just earned his master’s last June at UA in archeology and is now completing his PhD. That was three years ago when I talked to him and I have no idea of the details of what the project/study was called. I only know his exact words to confirm about the land deeds.

    The University of Arkansas?

    What peer reviewed journal was this published in, and please give the date so I can go look it up.

  • fuzzywzhe says:

    > I found nothing to discredit MEMRI on the first links?

    Are you kidding?

    MEMRI claimed that binLaden was going to attack states that voted for President Bush in the 2004 election. If you read the full speech, of which I pointed to you, you can clearly see that this claim was entirely made up by MEMRI.

    This false claim made by MEMRI which was widely cited in the television “news” at the time is credited with giving Bush a 6 point lead in polls, days before the election.

  • theStormaftertheCalm says:

    I found nothing to …
    I found nothing to discredit MEMRI on the first links? Looking up the words without the quotes and with the quotes. One first link was a MEMRI page, but I don’t believe that you were referring to that link.

  • theStormaftertheCalm says:

    Nope, covenant. The …
    Nope, covenant. The U A’s archeology department conducted research on the property deeds in Israel and found them to be 100% authentic. None of it was given to them like many propagandists attempt to pass off as fact. Hence, one would need to, at this point, discredit UA archaeological department because what they found was documented as such in their studies. If you relocated Israel to the North Pole they would still find a reason why Israel shouldn’t be there as well.

    On google, look up these words in quotes, and click the first link:

    “message was a warning to every U.S. state separately”

    See the full speech by googling exactly this:

    “that your security is not in the hands of Kerry” full speech

    It’s about land.

    Which is why there was no conflict until there was a Zionist movement to make a country for ONLY JEWS in the Middle East.

    Denying this is just pretending reality isn’t real.

  • theStormaftertheCalm says:

    The issues between …
    The issues between Israel and the Palestinians are not about the land, like they claim. Its all about the Abrahamic covenant. It there is no understanding about the covenant; then there is no understanding at all. Watch the Children of Abraham and it is very correct on the reality between the Jews and Muslims; however, the narrator still doesnt get a clue as he inadvertently has the attitude that the Jews should just lay down and die.

  • theStormaftertheCalm says:

    I promote MEMRI as …
    I promote MEMRI as much as I can to all the 700+ individuals that I work with. I challenge anyone of them to come back with any neutral (i.e. non-Arabic, non-Muslim, non-anti-Semitic, non-pro-Islamic, etc) evidence that MEMRI’s translations absolutely cannot be trusted. I keep checking back with them often and none have, for the last two years, presented any sources. I also ask them to present any other alternative to MEMRI and they cant.

  • aBetterWorld says:

    Yes, Ahmadinejad’s …
    Yes, Ahmadinejad’s statement was misquoted. Do some research on it instead of accepting mainstream media’s word with blind faith. “Hamas’s Nazi propaganda towards their own sons is peaceful?” This statement is very ironic because comparing Hamas to Nazis is obvious (and typical) propaganda. Israel is not the victim, it is the oppressor and the rest of the world as well as most Israelis are starting to find that out. May peace prevail.

  • larcic says:

    So Ahmadinejad’s ” …
    So Ahmadinejad’s “wipe off Israel from the map” is a bad translation? Holocaust deniers are actually denying something else? Hamas’s Nazi propaganda towards their own sons is peaceful? Am I living in another world?
    Of course fundamentalism doesn’t represent the whole of ISlam, but in the umma there ’s a crazy part of “faithfuls” which preaches hatred and wants to destroy the West: is it a jew invention too?
