Mr Fisk said he fought back and began lashing out at the mob, whose numbers had now swelled to about 100. He knocked a couple of his attackers to the ground but was then rescued by a Muslim religious leader, who forced the mob back and guided him to a police wagon.Ya right.
But Mr Fisk said he could understand the refugees' anger, as many had relatives who had been killed by the US bombing of Afghan city Kandahar last week. "They had every reason to be angry... If I had been them, I would have attacked me" "I don't want this to be seen as a Muslim mob attacking a Westerner for no reason. They had every reason to be angry - I've been an outspoken critic of the US actions myself. If I had been them, I would have attacked me."Oh, then he would be equally as 'understanding' if any American mob of 100 or more, including children, had beaten up some Muslim because they had relatives who died on 9/11 or any one of the previous terrorist attacks?
Jerk alert.
From what I've just read, he must've brought it on himself.
Fisk....starts with F ends with K. Enough said!
All staged for visual effect...
From article, "At first the exchanges were friendly, with Fisk and his colleague Justin Huggler shaking hands and exchanging greetings."
Wonder what he said to agitate them???
Maybe they recognized him.
yep relying on Fisk is a risk
ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!
