Israeli press calls Al Jazeera Sports broadcast of match a move toward normalization

Bethlehem / PNN – The Arab satellite news channel, Al Jazeera, is broadcasting Israeli sporting events, a move that the Israeli press says is a step toward normalization between the occupier and Arabs.

A match of the European Champions League that has the Israelis playing Munich will be broadcast, leading the Israeli daily Yedioth Ahronoth to suggest that a “new Middle East” has started to emerge.

Al Jazeera Sports is advertising the match that will be broadcast on Tuesday. The satellite channel says it is working to cover all sporting events the world over.

Yedioth Ahronoth added in its report that the move toward normalization is a radical shift from the previous position of Al Jazeera which did not broadcast a similar event in 2006. It wrote that the move toward normalization is in line with a call from the US administration.
