A complete misnomer?

What would you expect from a website called 'Cross-Cultural Understanding'? I am prepared to believe that it is not articles like this one from 2007:
'Did UK Israel Lobby Destroy Life of Jenny Tonge?

By Woodrow Gillian

ccun.org, September 4, 2007

I read the article Why Does The Israeli Lobby Have Its Grips On The Western World? By Ali Al-Hail. The article had the following quote.

"For example Baroness Jenny Tonge, a British Liberal Democrat, exclaimed, according to the BBC during September, 2006 that, the Israeli Lobby in the West has its grips on Western Foreign policies. The British Baroness was responding to the 'presumably' Western democratic governments in failing to, at the minimum condemning Israel for its obvious wrongdoing against the Palestinians."

Here is some additional information about Jenny Tonge that is interesting.

in January 2004, Tonge was sacked as liberal democrat leader by Charles Kennedy the Liberal Democrat leader "after saying she could understand why a Palestinian would become a suicide bomber"

In 2004, Tonge led pro-Palestinian activists and several Lib Dem MPs to stand for a two minute silence in honour of the deceased Hamas leader; Sheikh Ahmed Yassin.

In 2004, the daugher of Jenny Tonge died of "accidental" electrocution.

Jenny Tonge left politics in 2005 to care for her grandchildren, and was replaced by Susan Kramer.

Jenny Tonge voiced support for Palestinians. After voicing that support for Palestinians, Jenny Tonge's daughter died. Jenny Tonge then quit politics which prevents her from supporting Palestinians. Jenny Tonge's political seat was taken over by a Zionist person.

Quit an array of interesting coincidences.'
I wonder how CCUN have reacted to Jenny Tonge's latest outburst and subsequent sacking from the Liberal Democrats?

'Oh NotaSheep you mustn't take the rantings of obscure websites to heart, just ignore them' - I hear the murmurings from those who defend the indefensible day after day, so long as the indefensible is said by or on behalf of Islam. Well CCUN is actually part of Al Jazeera


In case that image is too small, the text reads 'Al-Jazeerah was founded and has been edited by Dr. Hassan Ali El-Najjar since January 24, 2002, and ccun.org since May 23, 2007 '
