Not just Israel and western governments that have accused them of an Islamist bias. The Palestinian Fatah party has also previously accused them of bias towards Hamas. At one point they closed down Al Jazeera's offices in the West Bank.

The English language version is apparently less openly biased than the Arabic version.
