Dissecting the day's top story - a frank assessment of the latest developments.
Inside Story provides analysis, background, and context on the day's top story from some of the best minds in the Middle East and around the world.
More than just the news, Inside Story asks how we got to today and what tomorrow might have in store.

I saw the subject about Iraq's oil industry and to be honest I would say that it was outstanding and you highlighted in the smallest details all my suspicious about the reason why America and Britain wanted to invade Iraq.
I watched your Inside Story for the first time on Aljazeera. It was very good! It was neutral ... I think both CNN & BBC supports Sri Lanka's propaganda machine. I like your work.
I would like to comment on what was said on this terrible conflict in Sri Lanka. We know in Europe that LTTE is not a terrorist group despite all propaganda in the media. Al Jazeera has done a good job in documenting this issue, very similar to the Palestinian one.
Why did Inside Story forget to bring a guest from the Tamil speaking muslim community? The community was heavily victimized by the Tamil Tiger rebels. I am requesting you remember this in the next Inside Story.
Your interactive program Inside Story on Sri Lanka was one of the best impartial interview & reports I have ever witnessed on any news channel. Without doubt Aljazeera has demonstrated the impartiality & has left all other international news channels far behind.
Something I don't get? Why no-one is putting the fingerpoint on Al Hariri for this killing for Mr Gemayel. Even we know that he has more to gain than anyone else in this incident to prove his point on Syria.
Just got the English Aljazeera feed (through jumptv.com) tonight and saw the segment on human shields in Gaza. Thank you very much - this is exactly the kind of news we in America have been missing, and urgently need to see.
