How can black holes "expell" jets of gas?

The material comprising the jets was never below
the event horizon of the black hole, it is material
that is forced away from the accretion disk and
"squirted out" along the polar axes. There's
probably some very nifty magnetohydrodynamical
processes involved in entraining the material to
migrate from the equator to the poles and
collimating it into jets.
What causes it to be forced away from the accretion disk, whereas the
rest of the matter is "sucked" towards it?
The magnetic field is that strong. The jets are a similar effect to
that seen from a pulsar.

parroting information from the web will not teach you cosmology.
