Any comments about your colleague Peter Greste, put in danger and then hung out to dry by Al Jazeera's news executives, who knew that members of Greste's production team were acting as agents provocateurs for the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt?

How do you feel about Al Jazeera's policy of allowing the Qatari muhabarat and associated political and militant groups to stock the news organization with spies and agents as "fixers" and "producers", thereby deliberately placing unwitting English-language journalists like Greste in danger?

Do you feel that providing fake journalistic cover for Qatari espionage and regional pro-Jihadi politicking is in accordance with the professed ethics of the Al Jazeera organization?

And finally, did you attend the big Welcome Home party that Al Jazeera threw in their Beirut bureau office in 2008 for the Lebanese child murderer Sami Kuntar, after he was released from an Israeli prison?

At that AlJazeera party, did Kuntar recount the time he shot a 4 year old girl in the head after murdering her father in front of her eyes? Did you laugh and shake his hand?

I was taught how to handle octopus, and encouraged to do so.

You're supposed to be a scuba instructor, and yet you think this ok somehow?

And don't forget, one of the great things about a global war of annihilation is how it brings everyone together.

Presumably you weren't enslaved, and you could have got a different job somewhere else. Or told someone about this widespread abuse of both the laws and the diving certifications.

Meh, fuck people like you. I wish the octopus had taken your finger off.

The first one was that I broke my contract by harassing marine life. ....

Actually all this is why you and your co-workers should have been sacked years ago. It is a breach of almost every ethic of diving and dealing with undersea wildlife that I've ever heard of in more than 20 years of diving. I also expect it is breach of whatever certifications, insurance, business permits and local laws that your cowboy outfit claimed to function under.

Please don't give me "that's what I was instructed" because I dont believe there's a single diving qualification in the world that doesn't stress this: you dont fuck with the wildlife.
