Providing political influence is the point of any state news agency, including "unobjectionable" ones like the BBC, among others. In a democratic country worthy of the name they're allowed to operate regardless. I'd like to see some citation for the claim that Al Jazeera was serving as some sort of pro-violence propaganda stream; CNN showed some speeches from bin Laden after 9/11 but that doesn't make them al Qaeda propaganda.
