"Al Jazeera (Arabic: الجزيرة Al-Jazīrah [æl (d)ʒæˈziːrɐ], lit. 'The Peninsula') is a Qatari state-owned[a] Arabic-language international news television network. It is based in Doha and operated by the Al Jazeera Media Network.
The patent holding is a "private foundation for public benefit" under Qatari law.[3] Under this organizational structure, the parent receives funding from the Qatari government while maintaining nominal editorial independence.[4][5] At the onset of the Qatar diplomatic crisis in 2017, several national governments of the Arab League called for the closure of the entire Al Jazeera conglomerate as part of a list of thirteen demands that were presented to the Qatari government in exchange for re-normalized relations.[6] Al Jazeera has been accused of pushing "Qatari propaganda" by many countries and organizations, including those in the Arab world."

As someone whose not even a prohibitionist, who doesn't even think that possession and usage of current illegal narcotics, for people who are 21 or over, should be illegal in America, who does believe in a high degree of personal freedom (as long as it comes with personal responsibility) I think this is this the way to go when it comes to tobacco. Educate smokers about the dangerous habit and regulate it, to discourage it. But don't legally punish people for simply hurting themselves.
