Any source that cherry picks the stories it focuses on is going to have a substantial bias. It's inevitable. MEMRI clearly chooses only stories that make Arabs look like total loons. Now, it could be the case that they are loons, but I'm not going to take the word of a very narrow filter such as MEMRI as a credible source.

You could be made to look like a total idiot if someone displayed a few carefully-selected clips of your life to the world.

Just how many clips showing Thomas Jefferson like, classical liberal ideas? Showing Saudi womens basketball? Pro-American pundits? Arab research institutes curing diseases or inventing medication? None... because it doesn’t happen.

They aren’t cherry picking - they are translating Arab textbooks and the most popular Arab programs.

You are an apologist, and in deep denial.
