On the right hand side of Al Manar’s website are op-ed pieces and interviews with well-known intellectuals and activists. There are interviews with Noam Chomsky and lawyer Dr. Franklin Lamb. There are also opinion pieces by economist Michael J. Mandel, jazz musician and activist Gilad Atzmon and Palestinian activist Dr. Mustafa Barghouthi. These voices are highly critical of the U.S. and Israel and take the political stance that Al-Manar seems reluctant to make in their news articles. It appears that Al Manar’s strategy is to provide less biased reporting of current events and provide op-ed pieces by more legitimate voices to provide the color and support Al Manar’s political agenda.
