Why do my taxpayer dollars have to pay for this Nazi-style propaganda? Where the hell are my lawmakers? Stand up, already. We are under siege.

Why wasn't taxpayer funding shut down after James O'Keefe caught NPR executives welcoming Muslim Brotherhood donors, calling Christians "radical and extreme," saying that "Zionists" own the newspapers, and earning the title "National Palestinian Radio"?

NPR's Rehm Teams-Up with Israel Bashers Diane Rehm's National Public Radio interview program, aired by more than 160 public stations, is known to be unremittingly anti-Israel. By Rachel Hirshfel, INN (Hat tip Arkansas)

Diane Rehm's National Public Radio (NPR) interview program, which is aired by more than 160 public stations, is known to be unremittingly anti-Israel.

Rehm's May 21 program did not feature a panel espousing multiple perspectives or points of view, but rather the sole opinion of Fawaz Gerges, chair of the Middle Eastern Center at the London School of Economics.

Gerges has said that it is “very unfortunate” that Hamas, whose charter calls for the destruction of the State of Israel, has been branded a terrorist organization by much of the international community.

He stated that, “Hamas is first and foremost a deeply rooted political organization with social and cultural and other dimensions to it.”

During the program, Rehm accepted all of Gerges' assertions and reinforced several of his positions, The Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting in America (CAMERA) exposed.

NPR news programming has included Gerges’ assertions that Yasser Arafat only "flirted with limited violence."

The “progressive” commie liberals’ policy of sucking up to the Islamofascists is going to blow up in their faces. They want the muzzies to destroy capitalism and the Jews in hopes that the commies will then be able to step in and take over. That isn’t going to happen. The “progressives” do not have the brains and the courage that will be needed to fight back against the muzzies once capitalism and freedom (America) is destroyed. This is going to be the biggest exploding cigar the dumbass DemocRATS ever fired up. The commies drove the global economy over the cliff and now can’t stop the downward spiral. Wait until they try to stop what they’ve started with their muzzie “brothers”.

I listen to public radio. On weekends they run at least 14 hours of Republican and middle America bashing programming under the label of entertainment. The rest of the the week the current affairs shows exist to dog whistle (their phrase) the base back to the Democrat party in anticipation of major elections.

It’s no surprise. NPR is Hillary Clinton’s baby. She and her feminist friends started it.
